My #jolabokaflodswap with detail of the beautiful presentation (I kept the book paper to use on future gifts!). I can't wait to curl up with some dark chocolate treats and see what this book I've been hearing so much about is like. Thank you so much, @LMJenkins !

StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego That's the BEST wrapping paper. 2d
LMJenkins Glad you like it! 💛⭐️ 2d
ImperfectCJ @LMJenkins I do! Those hazelnut butter chocolates are amazing! 2d
ImperfectCJ @StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego It really is! And I know that the amount I've saved is enough to wrap a hardcover book. :-) 2d

#DashingThruDecember Day 25: The #Red book is the one I need to get to early next year, that‘s for sure. I wish to find all the other titles in this list, too! The #Red book is the only one I own. 😍

Eggs These are all new to me! 2d

This is a beautifully written inditement of a society and individuals willing to support a genocide. As someone who felt like the little I did made no difference, this was an inspiring read.

Palestinian poet Rasha Abdulhadi: “Wherever you are, whatever sand you can throw on the gears of genocide, do it now. If it‘s a handful, throw it. If it‘s a fingernail full, scrape it out and throw. Get in the way however you can”.

(2025) This is one of the more important books I've read this year, and it consolidates a lot of my own thoughts and misgivings about my country's place in the world. It's about Gaza, but not just about Gaza, more broadly about the many theaters where the current world order is based on dehumanization and violence against people whom it has found advantageous to think of as not-people. No comfortable read, but eye-opening and compelling.

Thought-provoking. Difficult at times to read but necessary.

I had to bail at page 63, the spin was making me too dizzy to keep reading.

ImperfectCJ I would love to hear more. This one has gotten so much praise, but I'm very, very hesitant about overtly political books, even those whose points I agree with. Every work of nonfiction has bias, and I'm cool with that, but there's another direction some authors take that doesn't work for me (a clear "right" way to think/feel that the author is determined to evoke), and I'm wondering if this is one of those. 3w
TheBookgeekFrau @ImperfectCJ In a nutshell, it's anti-west, pro-Hamas. 3w
ImperfectCJ @TheBookgeekFrau So, you disagree with the content/argument rather than how it's presented? Perhaps I misunderstood your initial review mentioning "spin." 3w
