Welcome to Litsy!

I enjoyed these two challenges #readingwithmaja and #nonfiction2021 last year, though I couldn‘t complete both 😅 This year also I am trying these two challenges #nonfiction2022 in addition to #authoramonth #childrensclassicread2022

What is your reading goals for 2022? Any specific challenges ?

Happy New Year 🥂❤️

My only reading challenge last year was #nonfiction2021 and I read more than I thought I would! Quite a few of my favourite reads were non-fiction.

My #nonfiction2021 on to 2022!

Happy New Year! and Happy New Reading!

Very happy to have completed this year's #Nonfiction2021 Bingo! Thank you, Melissa, for organizing this! It was fun and I learned a lot.

One of the prompts for #Nonfiction2021 was “sunshiney or yellow,“ and what's more yellow than a banana? I've been interested in food justice issues for a long time (the pic is a banana article I wrote in 2002) and Koeppler does an excellent job of tracing the history and diversity of banana varieties, tackling the incredible history of corporate domination and exploitation involved, and looking into the risky future of the current popular strain.

This was thoughtful and moving: a chronicle by Garbriel Garcia Marquez's son of the deaths of his parents. An intriguing insight into accompanying your parents through death, something many of us experience, when one of them is one of the most significant writers of the 20th century. If ihad read more of Marquez's work and more recently, I'm sure I would have appreciated it even more.

I think everyone should read this book irrespective of their gender. Loved the way author puts her thought in a humble way, with logic. Brilliant 5🌟

I started my week with this motivational book. Great narration. This is my #bookspin book of December. #nonfiction2021 #wintergames #teamgamesleighers

I found this fascinating to listen to. He writes scientifically but in a way that‘s easy to understand. It details why people struggle to lose weight, the weight set point, metabolism, our eating habits (& why the western diet is pretty bad - overly processed food etc) & lots more. In the late chapters he gives a plan of how to lose weight for good but it felt a bit farfetched, you‘d have to be super dedicated to stick to the whole plan. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
