Russian propaganda for reading.
The Written World is the last book I cataloged in my #LibraryThing db, so thought I'd mention that LT is how I first heard of #Litsy, when they acquired it. This is why I'm experimenting with #littendom. Intrigued to see how they incorporate the 2...i can think of several neat features that would work btwn the 2...
Isn‘t this beautiful
I hope this one is good
From reviews, looks like this has a couple of historical booboos, but it's enjoyable to read and includes some texts I know virtually nothing about.
After my last read being kinda eh, I had Breakfast help out picking the next one. He cuddled very patiently like this while I fussed. #BunniesofLitsy
Dug into this one delightedly, anyway. It's rather literary in style, telling stories of how stories came to be recorded, but I am enjoying it. It's made me really want to read The Tale of Genji.
I loved this book! But keep in mind I also love history and World literature. I imagine this book as a kind of ethnographic literary study, as Puchner visited the countries where the foundational texts had been written or evolved. The Written World chronicles writing inventions as well as texts that shaped entire civilizations up to the present day. Informative and interesting read that shows the power of shared stories throughout time.
Book haul! These were waiting for me when I got to my parents' too. Helen Hippo featured, of course. #HipposofLitsy 😎
I have had three sick kiddos this week but they are all on medicine and in bed early. This is what I‘m doing with the extra time this evening 🍷📚🎄
September was a better reading month than I had expected. In all the best ways I #blameitonlitsy! 😁
One of my favorite five star reads is tagged.
I am excited to leap into this lovely! #Netgalley #RandomHouse
