Welcome to Litsy!

I think I waited too long before I started this. I may not finish in time for #MuseumPlaceBookGroup.

Breaking this story held great importance to our culture. To me, I got just as much information from reading the original story and the promotional interviews for this book, than from reading this book.

Spy thriller? Not really. Romance? Almost. I never took the time afterwards to research how much of the story framework of how [ Doctor Zhivago ] came to be published in the West, but it was fascinating to have this demi-romance wrapped up in that tale.

I often identify [ The Grapes of Wrath ] as my favorite book, and I think it helped stoke my interest in things like the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl. Someone recommended this for #MuseumPlaceBookGroup , so I was excited to read it. I ultimately got bored with it and skipped passages.

I hope you don't mind me continuing to flood your feed while I log all my books from 2020.

This book is by the same author who wrote [ Killers of the Flower Moon ]. This had adventure and mystery. What happened to this explorer? What happened to those who went looking for him?

Today I will pick up [ Radio Girls ] from the library. It is the next book for #MuseumPlaceBookGroup.

I liked the book well enough, and it sparked a lot of conversation in the #MuseumPlaceBookGroup last night. A few people didn't buy into the reach of the technology in this book, but I felt it was feasible in the frame of the story.

I had never heard of Humboldt. It was fascinating to see what an influence he had on science and the idea of how humans are interconnected with, and part of, nature.

Read for #MuseumPlaceBookGroup in 2020.

I'm still working to get my 2020 reads in here. (I took a break from this app during the election when people started bringing the vitriol here, like every other platform.)

I read a couple of other books by Furst years ago, but this one didn't grab me like those earlier books.
