Welcome to Litsy!

I feel like this book could be set in modern times
Thomas Gradgrind is raising his children to only care about facts. It doesn't go well. Tom is a thief, and Louisa marries the walking red flag Josiah Bouderby. The facade starts to crack after Louisa has an emotional affair and flees to her childhood home.

I loved this King Arthur retelling so much that I gave it five stars 🌟
The knight Collum goes to Camelot a few weeks after Arthur's death. The fate of the realm is in peril and Collum, Nimue, and the few knights of the round table that are left must find a new king and restore order to the land 👑

Wow that was a lot of blood, death and incest fortunately there were also dragons. I enjoyed the history of the Targaryens even though they were extremely frustrating at the best of times. I loved Mushroom's commentary 🐉

I thoroughly enjoyed it, and the movie 🤎
Mark Watney gets left for dead after a storm threatens to destroy the space ship, causing the rest of the crew to abandon Mars. Somehow, he survives and even manages to grow potatoes.
I admit the amount of math in this book lost me, but I did love Watney's sense of humor.
