Welcome to Litsy!

Random House started out by acquiring The Modern Library, so it seems appropriate to picture this memoir alongside my ML collection. I enjoyed Cerf‘s meandering reminiscences and the advantage of knowing which of his authors is still read and which not doesn‘t detract a bit. His humor isn‘t mean, even when “telling tales” on famous people, and it was a dose of lightheartedness I very much needed. And #letterA for #LitsyAtoZ & #doublrspin.

Here‘s my belated #readyourkindle for this months. Thanks @CBee for organizing.

I needed more humor and less thriller, so reading my #doublespin before my #bookspin this month. Also #letterA for #LitsyAtoZ. @TheAromaofBooks @Texreader

This feels like one of those “I support women‘s wrongs.” While I don‘t like how June took her life, the writing of Kuang is so fluid it‘s hard to dislike their story. No, I don‘t like June. She did a not good thing, though I don‘t think she was treated a fair way either. The fascinating part of this book is how Kuang writes the book into this exploration of the publishing industry. How unfair it is to those seen as revolutionary writers.

4⭐️/5⭐️

Quite good account of his life and work in publishing. Kind of like having an old friend remembering. Stories about authors and family, etc
