Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

#ABookADay2025

this is a book about sales.

This is a must read for anyone interested in or horrified by the ways in which social media has disrupted how we write, communicate with each other and conceive of ourselves, politics and society. Moreover, this essay in book format reads as part philosophy, psychology and history to deliver a thorough analysis of the present danger posed by the “social industry” especially in relation to conspiracy theories and political campaigns. Great read!

This book was published in 2009, that's the year I started blogging. Twitter was a very different world back then. You could have silly conversations without people getting uptight and that's what David Pogue did. He initiated various types of conversations and then documented them with this book. In. This. Book. Forever....or until I put it in the recycling.

These are brief encouragements to keep going, reminders that we are each unique, special, loved, and worthy. There‘s nothing particularly earth shattering here, but if you need a pick-me-up, it‘s worth dipping into. I wouldn‘t recommend reading it all in one go, though. It‘s nice to actually finish a book, even if I didn‘t love it. Not being able to stick with anything is very stressful and that makes it harder to stick with something. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Short story. A series of tweets. Entertaining and unique. 5 ⭐

Mildly amusing, can be read in a few sittings.

1. Yes! It's how I met my husband back in college. We've been together almost 10 years 🩷

2. The tagged book doesn't have a dating service but there is a lot of online banter.
