Welcome to Litsy!

Happy #Jolabokaflod 🎉

Thank you @melissajayne - I'm really looking forward to finally reading this one! And enjoying all this awesome chocolate 🍫

And thank you to @MaleficentBookDragon for organizing once again this year!

Sometimes 451 characters isn't enough to gush over a book and the feeeelllllssss associated with that book and that's my problem here but I will say that Grann did an amazing job of balancing historical information and providing it such a written way that spoke of the Osage's civilization with respect to race, perspective, culture, and colonialism.

🎧definitely watching the movie when I finish!🎬

Started this morning already intrigued…🧐

I saw the previews for this movie & figured I‘d read the book first. Man, reading this is infuriating. It‘s abominable how the Osage people were taken advantage of & murdered for their oil money & how none of the perpetrators were punished properly, at least imo. Truth is stranger than fiction & I‘d recommend this to anyone interested in history & true crime. 4⭐️ P.S. I love Will Patton‘s narration, that is all.

#LitsyLove now in the hands of USPS ~ tagged book is @TieDyeDude current read & one I have read

As a whole it is good, exposing the heinous crimes against the Osage, the men who searched for justice. Note about the audio: it is split into 3 parts w/ 3 narrators, the first of which was a bit kindergarten teacher, & did not feel like it fit.

This was an interesting and informative book about a piece of history I didn't know much about. Off to watch the movie! 🍿
