I bought this over a decade ago, and it‘s been sitting on my shelf since then. It felt like the right time to pick it up and I‘m so glad I did. It‘s packed with history and information but in a way that‘s easily absorbable.

Everyone debates the facts with subtle nuances , what aboutism & old fashioned gaslighting....I'm not debating if the South African immigrant did or didn't do a nazi salute (He totally did by the way), but the dismantling of the Department of Healths department of woman's health & reproductive rights in less than 24 hrs is fact. Can't wait for me Feb appointment to get my paperwork together to leave this country.

Darklunarose It‘s going to be a dreadful term. The damage will be massive. I can‘t blame you for getting out of there. 4mo
itsjustme40something Watching how many people are either in support of it or normalize it is almost as terrifying as it happening. 4mo

My 1st Larson book, I listened to this the last couple of weeks. All about the American ambassador to Germany & his family during the 1930s. Mostly set during 1933-34 when Hitler was chancellor & gaining power. Really interesting & scary, some direct connections to our current government. Some parts were slower or not as good but overall, an important read of a time period not covered much (or at all) in school.

I will post the discussion threads for both September 's reads over the weekend.
I'm looking forward to catching up.

I read this book after I read Newshawks in Berlin. Hitlerland is, of course, Nazi Germany. This book shows us a picture of the rise of Adolph Hitler as seen through the eyes of various Americans living and working in Berlin. Some thought Hitler wasn‘t dangerous and his movement wouldn‘t last, especially after he was arrested and sent to prison. Quite an informative book if history is your interest. Five stars

If you‘re concerned about democracy and curious about comparisons to 1930s Germany, this worthwhile read follows America‘s first ambassador to Nazi Germany & his family‘s response—particularly his daughter, whose dalliances included the Gestapo chief and a Soviet spy—to the rise of Hitler. A revealing, disturbing, and relevant depiction of moral complicity & political complexity and a dire warning about unexamined biases and underestimating evil.

kspenmoll I loved this. 10mo
underground_bks @kspenmoll have you read Caste? I thought about it a ton while listening to this 10mo

I‘m back! My little man is almost 3 months old already, and I‘m slowly getting back into reading again, so I figured it‘s time to jump back on the Litsy bandwagon to hopefully get some inspiration. 🥰

I‘m taking things super chill, so I probably won‘t be participating in any challenges any time soon, but I am going to put together a short TBR for July. 😊
