We kinda have a house divided since the hubs is kinda a South Carolina fan (even tho we are both from KY!) But he‘s still at work so I haven‘t had him rooting against me! #BBN #CATS 💙🏀

But I‘m trying to work my way out of this reading slump & this book so far has been a BIG help!!! So I‘m catching a few pages during commercials!

Happy Baseball Day! Any other fans out there?
Buck Martinez is the commentator for the Jays, and he is truly the best in the business.

#AugustPhotoChallenge! #BooksandSports!YOU GUYS I'm proud of myself, I found books on sports. 😂 My library holds were convenient today. The Sport of Kings is really supposed to be about racism & wealth when a Black man goes to work for a horse stable trying to breed great race horses in Kentucky. Sudden Death involves a tennis match between Caravaggio & de Quevedo with a ball of Anne Boleyn's hair? WTF? Whatever, I'm curious. Play ball! 🏇🎾

Mayread Sudden Death is GOOD. 8y
BookishFeminist @Skiles It looks it! I love philosophical metaphorical stuff. 8y
Dorianna A ball of Anne Boleyn's hair? I have to read that one. 8y

BookishFeminist @dorianna.garguilo Indeed. And there's all these historical figures watching, like Galileo & Mary Magdalene! Sounds trippy. 8y
TheSpinecrackersBookClub Some interesting books! 8y
catiewithac I'm curious to know your thoughts. I liked Sudden Death but lost interest midway through. 🎾 8y
JSW Ditto @catiewithac - so let me know your thoughts! 8y
BookishFeminist @catiewithac @JSW Will do! It looks like something I'll enjoy. 😊 8y

My interest in sports is limited to the Olympics. Every 4th summer or winter, I become a sports fan, glued to the TV watching all the different events, getting teary as I see athletes achieve lifelong dreams. And the second the Closing Ceremony ends, I go back to not caring about sports at all. So I only have one book that is kind of about sports. #booksandsports #augustphotochallenge #augustofpages

AmyS Also pictured: the current Sports Illustrated for Kids (a gift from my brother for me to use in my classroom) and the only sports equipment in my house--my dog's tennis balls. 8y
TheSpinecrackersBookClub I definitely do the same re the Olympics. I also do this during the soccer world cup. 8y
