Welcome to Litsy!

Kind of a weird pick for #tenthavenuefreezeout, but here we are.

My reasoning was two fold. First off, Russia is cold af. I mean, I think so. I‘ve never actually experienced it myself. Secondly, Tsar Nicholas and his family were part of their own little freeze out when the tsar was overthrown by the bolsheviks.

And I guess you could add a third reason—sources say that Tsarina Alix of Hesse was one frigid lady. #winterwonderland

A deep freeze / freeze out selection. Take your pick.

I haven‘t read this book but it looks so pretty - so I am going to! I didn‘t realise how much Ive wanted to see a city in the snow until all these wintry Litsy posts showed up 😂 I have always loved the scenes in New York in the snow in Home Alone 2 ( I watch it with my kids every Christmas) so dang it, I have to get there and go ice skating in Central Park!

Day 11 - #tenthavenuefreezeout #winterwonderland

Tear drops on the city, Bad Scooter searchingly for his groove
Seem like the whole world walking pretty and you can't find the room to move
Well, everybody better move over, that's all
'Cause I'm running on the bad side and I got my back to the wall
Tenth Avenue freeze-out

#TenthAvenueFreezeOut tells the story of a band coming together, a band that forms from (and comes to represent) the working classes of America. Push that story across the Atlantic to Ireland and it sounds a lot like The Commitments to me.

So for today‘s #tenthavenuefreezeout prompt I thought I‘d go with a Cold War book. I still haven‘t read the tagged book yet but it‘s about a young girl growing up behind the Iron Curtain during the 1960s! 👍🏻 #winterwonderland

I had a choice of ten or out for #TenthAvenueFreezeOut, but out won! #WinterWonderland @Cinfhen @TrishB

I struggle with N.J., it‘s not NY- but they have Bruce Springsteen and Stephanie Plum. #tenthavenuefreezeout #winterwonderland

I read this Hell‘s Kitchen set true crime/ revenge story donkey‘s years ago.... but remember finding it unputdownable!
Four young boys, a childhood prank goes horribly wrong, and they spend years being imprisoned and brutally abused. Then this tale takes a turn, as the boys become men, and revenge consumes them.
As is often the case, #goodbookterriblemovie 🤦‍♀️
