Welcome to Litsy!

Finally finished this chunky book for #BookedInTime #SpanishCivilWar @Cuilin

When I saw last month‘s theme I wanted to re-read this book. I wasn‘t sure if my fond memories of it were because it was a good book or if it was the book I brought with me the first time I traveled without my kids. Sometimes just being able to think makes a book better.

Happy to say it held up and I was just as into this spy novel in translation as I was 11 years ago.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wow. Volume 11 of Spy x Family was INTENSE and I loved every single minute of it! I‘m not sure how the next volumes will be able to compete with this one 😬

A bit lengthy, but Elizebeth Friedman‘s story is so interesting, I didn‘t mind! She was a pioneer in code breaking, but of course, at the time, her achievements and contributions were overshadowed by her husband (also a code breaker) or not recognized at all.

#pop25 - a book about an overlooked woman in history

This was a fun little listen. I‘m not usually into war books, but this one was unusual enough 😊

Fantastic non fiction about spies and counter intelligence from the UK and Russia during the cold war. Interesting and fast paced, I didn‘t want to stop listening. I will be thinking about this piece of history for a long time-I never would have imagined that crisps and nap pies could play such a key role in espionage. Highly recommended on #audio.

Library today to get books and a state park pass, then to read at the state beach 15 minutes away. 😎
Does your state loan out state park passes? I love this program!

Just finished this beautiful story. A three-timeline plot, set before, during, and immediately after WWII in Germany, it follows two sisters and the woman who comes across a book tied to them. It‘s heart wrenching and uplifting at the same time. So glad I read this.
