If you have an interest in how our government has become so entrenched in our economy and eroded our private rights, this is your book. It is eye opening to see how they've done it and how so many went along.

How did we get "Big Government"? This is going to be heady and informative

⭐️⭐️out of 5️⃣ Folks, it was pretty unpretty.

As a veteran bus traveller, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was deadpan and absurd and at the same time felt 100% accurate, probably because Mills himself works as a bus driver. The ending was perfect. Highly recommended.

Another not widely know serial murder. In the 70s several children went missing and were then found dead. Nobody has ever been charged with the murders. This happened in the suburbs of Detroit. What was uncovered was a deep and thriving child sex/porn network involving auto executives and children of executives.
There was/is speculation of cover ups and incredibly bungled police work.

OrangeMooseReads While named ‘Oakland County Child Killer‘ the children were found in multiple counties even if just over the boarder. 2y

#adventrecommends, @emilyrose_x

It's a clever blend of dystopia, absurdism and Kafka, but it is mostly conveyed dispassionately. While this wasn't a favorite book of 2022, it is one I am glad to have read and one I would not have read without Litsy's #FoodandLit challenge.

My reading list for the next 8 weeks. 😶 Reserving judgement.

I will be living vicariously through Litsy friend posts. 💙

Leftcoastzen Can I take that class?!😉 3y
Tamra @Leftcoastzen I wish you would! 3y
squirrelbrain Woah, that‘s a *lot* of reading for 8 weeks, and none of it looks easy. 😬 3y

aa_guer2021 What a fascinating list!! I second @Leftcoastzen 3y
ravenlee I read five of those, but I think it was for two separate classes (which had additional reading, of course). I found them all pretty fascinating. 3y
ravenlee I particularly liked the Kuhn. Actually, I‘ve been thinking of rereading it, and this reminder might just give me the push I need! 3y
Ruthiella Good luck!👍 3y
Cathythoughts Looks like a good selection ! 👍 love the title ‘ Habits of the Heart‘ 3y
Tamra @Cathythoughts will you read it for me? 😉 3y
Tamra @squirrelbrain I wish it were a 16 week course instead to digest the material. 3y
Tamra @aa_guer2021 I don‘t feel “fascinated” in the midst of it. 😜 3y
Tamra @ravenlee my husband really enjoyed that work too! 3y
Tamra @Ruthiella thank you! 💙 3y
Cathythoughts If I was 20 years younger … yes absolutely! 😆 I‘d say it will be brilliant learning, and you‘re a good reader 👍 3y
aa_guer2021 @Tamra no, I guess not. Though hopefully more educated by the end, which to me is a win! 3y
