Welcome to Litsy!

The author has actually worked fro the World Trade Organization and the World Bank, both are mentioned (generally, not in a good way) in this book. There is a lot to take in. Mostly interesting stuff here. He does end with some suggestions to try to make things better, but the sad part is corporations that make a lot of money won‘t go for it, cont in comments...

Does anyone know of any indie bookstores that have online shopping options too? I think I need more time with this book than the library allows but there are no indie bookstores near me at all. Zip. It's wild that a city as big as mine doesn't have any, but c'est la vie. I know I can get this on Amazon or at B&N but if I can get it at an indie bookstore online I'll go for it. Thank you!! #srslyilovethegetindiemvmt #butaccessibilityisabigissue

Only on the intro, but he has laid out so much real talk already that I can tell this is going to be a very, very informative book. Why are so many people overweight & stuffed yet so many people also starving in the world? #therealquestion #seriousreadingday

Last stop for #bookstoretourism was Monkey Wrench Books. This volunteer-run bookstore focuses on social and economic justice. It was a good ending point, for sure. There are 2 orher indie bookstores I didn't visit: BookPeople (cause I go there all the time and everyone knows about it) & Fifth Dimension Bbooks (it's a mobile bookstore that I can never seem to find). A lot of fun was had - and now I have books for #biblioweekend 😆

I've been dicking around in Hartford and New Haven the last two days apartment hunting, which might be the most stressful and impossible thing to do on the planet. Jfc. Crashed on a friend's couch in Hartford last night and photographed her+roommate's bookshelf 📚 (this book sounds super interesting too hence why I listed it, check it out)
