Mehso-so

(1935) It's a pulp adventure story imitating Tarzan, where Africa is replaced by a lost Native American homeland above the Arctic Circle; and the foster family of apes is replaced (in part) by bears. As an adventure story it's pretty good, though also very much of its time.

This was my #DoubleSpin read for July.

1. Nato'wa, a lost Native American homeland above the Arctic Circle

2. The Prophets by Robert Jones, Jr

3. Is it awful that I'm so swamped with already-published books that I barely sweat the books to come? I'm looking forward to Becky Chambers's next Monk & Robot book more than I would expect, so maybe that.

#BookSpin and #DoubleSpin books for June: a vintage adventure story set in a lost land above the Arctic Circle; and a true adventure story set in Cold-War East Germany.

Thanks @TheAromaofBooks !

TheAromaofBooks Your book cover kind of makes me wish I had a giant pet bear to ride around! 2y
swynn @TheAromaofBooks 😆 It does look fun, doesn't it? I'll bet they're nuts for the grocery budget, though ... 2y
