Welcome to Litsy!

The message in the 2nd volume in The Spirit of Denendeh graphic novel series is that it‘s never too late for redemption and that the prospect of leaving a legacy to be proud of can carry us forward to a better future. The portrayal of Fort Smith is impressively realistic—it‘s rare to see NWT communities in fiction. Tlicho cultural traditions & beliefs as shown are interesting too. Dynamic art and an inspiring story: I recommend this! #Indigenous

Nice to see this Easter egg: Lacey takes a brave step in her life and she is carrying a copy of Helen Knott‘s memoir, In My Own Moccasins.

Interesting. But nothing ‘new‘ as such IMO. #bookspin for Jan!

Who jury-rigged a tall, skinny reading lamp table out of an electric kettle box, a yoga block, a CD holder, and a cigar box?

Me! I did that!

(Then I discovered it was impossible to attractively photograph, but whatevs.)

And I did it all while I finished RAZE, which was wonderful and got me super emotional. Roan Parrish has definitely become a favourite. #audiodecorating

I took a long #audiowalk down a new path the city built last year. It runs behind a lot of familiar places, and I discovered all sorts of secrets. Like, I had no idea the Korean market has a karaoke bar with the world‘s most awesome front door!

RAZE is still great—but when I paused it so I could read something with my eyeballs, Scribd decided it wasn‘t downloaded and I couldn‘t restart it. 😑 I switched to podcasts for the rest of the walk.

I made blueberry scones tonight to use up some frozen fruit. They‘re Nigella‘s recipe with the 4.5 tsps of cream of tartar, and they look weird but have great texture. That‘s tomorrow‘s breakfast sorted.

I listened to a big chunk of RAZE while I baked, and it‘s confirmed my love for Roan Parrish‘s work. THE EMOTIONS. As an added bonus, one of the leads loves audiobooks. I felt so meta, listening to him think about that. #audiobaking

What an eye opener this book is! Anyone who is considering reducing their alchohol intake or giving up completely , i would highly recommend reading this book.Catherine drunken experiences are so relatable, and her simple coping techniques have helped me on my way of accomplishing my goal of a year sobriety! #sober#addiction#soberjourney
