I knew very little about this topic. The history of electricity, the battle between AC and DC. I was pleasantly surprised. I would recommend checking it out.

#LitsyMail Thank you for my tote. It's so cute. @Blerdgal_Fenix
I found four books at my local library sale yesterday. Not bad for $3. All historical fiction, my favorite genre. #LibrarySale

Read the incredibly strange and surprisingly true story behind the invention of “Old Sparky.“

pickI found this fictional story (filled with LOTS of nonfiction facts) fascinating and entertaining. As I was not aware of the Edison/Westinghouse/Tesla backstory, it was quite an eye-opener. The fictional parts of the novel were seamlessly and expertly woven in and made what otherwise might have been a dry, Wikipedia-type book, a page-turner. If you like underdog-to-hero types of stories, this might be right up your alley. Well worth the read. 4/5⭐️
pickFinished this last night! Putting it in the mail today and should be there by 6/12!
This book was very interesting! A bit long at some points and a bit gruesome at times. I never would have picked this up on my own, if it wasn‘t a #LMPBC read.
Don‘t want to say much more, since others still need to read it!
