Welcome to Litsy!

2✨ Okay… ummm. Second book in the series and it took me a day and checked on other peoples spoiled reviews so I could figure out what the heck I just read. I‘m not sure what was actually happening and not sure who actually died. The alien downloaded race I still don‘t quite understand, and my emotions were pulled all over the place. I think the point was the aliens are messing with people so they either turn on each other or give info away. 🤷‍♀️

If you would have told me I'd enjoy a book dealing heavily with organized religion and philosophies of mankind's destructive nature I'd probably not believe you but for some reason this worked for me. This had a lot more humor than I'd expected and even though most of it was sort of a downer there were moments of hope. It still feels relevant today despite being written in the late 50s

“Words are a weapon stronger than he knows. And songs are even greater. The words wake the mind. The melody wakes the heart. I come from a people of song and dance. I don‘t need him to tell me the power of words.”

August's #RandomClassic is Fahrenheit 451. l've never read this one and honestly know very little about it, so l am going in almost completely blind.
The book is divided into three parts, so rather than following a chapter a day, we'll be reading one part per week. Since the 1st is on a Thursday, I'll try to post discussion posts on August 8, 15, and 22.

I love the premise of this series: protect & defend librarians, libraries & our right to read. But it scares & appalls me that censorship & book banning are still on the rise. Let‘s do what we can to “win the war on information, one book at a time.” (Vote!)
It‘s also my first #manga and first time reading in original Japanese format: right to left. Glad it came with instructions!☺️
Thanks @iread2much for this great gift

I was not expecting to love this book as much as I did! I couldn‘t put it down! And then when I did go to sleep I dreamt about it! Fantastic book about a post pandemic world. It was quite eerie reading it and keeping in mind that it was written in 2014 ie pre our pandemic! Very clever concept, great characters that interweave in unexpected ways. Highly recommend this one!

Very cute. The bickering of the nurse and the naiverty of Rambo annoyed me quite a bit. But the journey they went on made it a lot better. I loved the Pinocchio references, especially the part about consience. I wouldn't read the book again very soon, but I had a nice time. I loved the ace representation!
