Welcome to Litsy!

24/100 I don't believe that I have ever listened to a less interesting book involving dinosaurs and paleontology, two subjects that I'm very interested in. IMO the book spends too much time discussing religious leaders, and how they tried to align fossils with the teachings of the bible. Even when discussing Darwin and evolution, it was more about the affect on the religious community than on the validity of the theories. 3 ⭐⭐⭐ #Read2025

Finished last week. Glad to have finally read/removed this classic from my physical shelves. So much happier also to have read it with great friends #hashtagbrigade 🥰💖

Thanks @BarkingMadRead for hosting #hashtagbrigade 💖

Also, this was one of my February #Roll100 picks📚

I read a lot of WWII nonfiction history and historical fiction books. I had never heard about the Propaganda Girls that worked in the Marole Operations (MO) branch of the OSS. Propaganda Girls tells of four women who worked in the MO office.

Rogak, you can tell when you read it, a thoroughly researched book. These 4 ladies were a major part of WWII. They helped with false information to enemy soldiers trying to get them to surrender. ⬇️

Book 2 of this series is about Steffan and April. Steffan is a bear shifter, April is his Ex. Will they get back together? 2 spots for #ISpyBingoMar @TheAromaofBooks #SeriesLove25 @Andrew65 @TheSpineView #Read2025 @DieAReader

Finished this past week for February!s #FoodAndLit #Nepal I ended up really liking it. About a journalist going after a story that requires her to summit Manaslu, the 8th highest peak in the world. Mountain climbing fascinates me probably because I am clumsy, not good in cold, scared of heights, can‘t breathe as it is (let alone at high altitudes) & could never do it & it gives me high anxiety which actually works with a thriller.😱😉⬇️

My second #ThematicCozies pick for February: Romance was just okay for me. It had potential (the author of a mystery series is invited to a wedding on a private island in the San Juan‘s where the groom is her ex) but there were too many characters & it came across really disjointed. The transitions between the MC & her own mystery series MC felt muddled. I don‘t know if it‘s meant to be a series or a stand alone title & it‘s the ⬇️
