Welcome to Litsy!

My husband stopped at Popeyes and brought home chicken for dinner. I‘m watching the Red Sox in 2025 and reading about the Yankees in 1923. #hyggehourreadathon

Settling in for some #hygge time. For some reason the only snack that sounded good to me tonight was raisins and water. One of those days when I‘m hungry but I‘m tired of food. Reading tonight is the tagged and a chapter of Extraordinary Insects. I might look through some cookbooks I got for #FoodAndLit too. Enjoy the hour everyone.

I love the premise of this book- two college buddies set out to watch a game at every major league ballpark in 30 days. It didn‘t quite work in execution though. One of the guys didn‘t even like baseball. So it‘s less a book about baseball than a book about two guys waiting for baseball games to end so they can explain some more about road trip logistics.

Checked out a bunch of books at the library then used the money we saved on brunch.

3 ⭐ Celebrity author, books are one thing but when they use their life to tell a fake story, it doesn‘t always work. This book very much reads like Alex Rodriguez is sharing the glory days of his youth. It‘s overly long and tad bit tripe and feels like a giant fish story. I do think the illustrations are great and I love how in the end they included real pictures and Ted bits about Alex Rodriguez‘s life.

We‘re in the middle of a hostile government takeover, but it‘s still Opening Day.

If you are a baseball fan, you are going to like this novel. Joe Castle was hit in the head with a baseball. Life changes for both the Warren Tracey and Joe Castle after that incident. I liked Warren‘s son Paul and the story behind the life of the two men. 4/5 ⭐️

Still not many (14) but some are pretty memorable.
1. The Pride of the Yankees
2. 12 Angry Men
3. Gaslight
4. To Kill A Mockingbird
