Welcome to Litsy!

Not easy to rate. 🤷🏽‍♀️ Maybe I did too much chores while listening but I doubt that I memorised much of what she explains. Maybe because she‘s entertaining but I felt like she often runs off the track. It took me quite a long while to get used to that.

It‘s a “Pick” for me because I like the author. Her tune and how she reads her book.

But when it comes to really long-term learning something it‘s only a “So-So” for me. But I‘m sure it‘s me.

I‘m three hours into this audiobook and at the moment it‘s getting complicated. Maybe only because I cooked while listening – but I have a strong feeling that I need to rewind a few chapters to retrieve connection with what she explains.

Sadly I‘m feeling a bit ill.
No, I don‘t want no flu … 😟

It‘s a popular science book.

“Chemistry is all - what we do around us, what we feel, everything has to do with chemistry, don‘t you think? The young scientist and journalist Mai Thi Nguyen-Kim appears in this exciting pop-science book the cheerful proof and decomposes everyday phenomena into their chemical elements.” (Marketing blurb)

The app telling me my next hold will not be available before the end of November is where my #BooknerdProblems begin.

Because: Look, what I could download today because it was available to me.

Yes, I‘m happy because I waited quite long for this one to be my turn. But I also feel a bit rushed 😶 because I now need to get two and a half audiobooks done in a little more than two weeks.

Just started this. I only had one year of chemistry in school. And I always feel as if I could poison myself and everyone around me by mistake because I don't know shit about chemistry. So hopefully I'll know more about chemistry after this book ☺️
