Welcome to Litsy!

Great book! Aside from the blatant sexism, I really enjoyed this. Elizabeth may be considered harsh and abrasive by some, but I thought she was a great character!

My #HyggeHourReadathon has developed into an all afternoon, not moving from this spot. This is most definitely a 'calm and boring day'. 😊📚☕️🐈
I'm spending the day alternating between reading the tagged book and listening to #NaturaLitsy January read, What the Wild Seas Can Be. 🌊 🎧

For the actual hour, I'll be planning February's reads and journaling.

All welcome to join us.

Well this was totally unexpected!
I've seen this book around a lot but never really paid attention to it. Then I saw it was an Apple TV show, and being me I obviously decided to read the book first.
Not only was it something totally different and refreshing but it was really deep, and spoke to my heart in ways I didn't expect.
In conclusion I get the hype.

I started reading this book and saw its Netflix movie adaptation 3 years ago and will finally finish it this week 📖🍩💖

Recommended by at least 2 friends. I am already overreacting to all the sexism at work (who has work in engineering and still been "mistaken" for the secretary will see why). I need to brace myself for the rest ;)

Watching Jeopardy from a few weeks ago, and I learned that this gentleman is the husband of Bonnie Garmus, who wrote Lessons in Chemistry. I may owe her an apology for saying that her characters didn‘t seem realistic. I can DEFINITELY picture this guy asking someone to pass the sodium chloride. 😜

“Girls couldn't play baseball, or can they?“ This quote challenges the stereotypes of people thinking girls can't do things.

I would use this book in my classroom to discuss women's rights and determination.

This story was published in 2003 and is historical fiction. This book tells the story of a girl who didn't love all of the things a “normal“ girl should love back in the 1940's. She loved baseball instead but no one let girls play baseball. So, she made a league of her one and how she might have played for the first ever All-American Girls Professional Baseball League

1) Ranier cherries ... so hard to choose just one but their season is so short it feels like a real treat.

2) Loved the book and the show
