Took a break from #holidayreadingsprints to eat dinnner and play a game of Wonderword card game! I‘m going to start this book which is the January pick for #litsyfeministbookclub

Kaye I know I‘ve been in Litsy for quite awhile but have a question : is there a way to keep track of a # ? Like the #holidayreadingsprints ? So it won‘t get lost in the shuffle of all the other posts ? 7y

Well-ReadNeck @Kaye you can click on a blue (highlighted) hashtag or search for one with the same search tool you use for books and people (just choose the hashtag tab at the top). That will give you all the posts with that hashtag, most recent at the top 7y

Kaye Ok, thanks. Sometimes posts come in here so fast that they slide down the page quickly then it‘s hard to find a particular post again. Will jump in soon to join in. 7y

A Conspiracy in Belgravia | Sherry Thomas

Codes and ciphers?! I like reading fiction and nonfiction about these! If you have any other recs, please let me know! While I‘m reading, my daughter is working on her wood carving. #holidayreadingsprints

EvieBee I‘m currently reading this and enjoying it!

Code Girls: The Untold Story of the American Women Code Breakers of World War II

mhillis @EvieBee Thanks! I‘ve seen a few posts about it! I borrowed it from the library but couldn‘t get around to it before it was dueðŸ˜‚ Will have to give it another try! 7y

drokka I really enjoy codes and ciphers too, especially in historical mysteries. There are quite a few that have them. I read one that, by nature of the story, ended up being a huge info-dump in codes and ciphers, but was very cool. I can't remember what it was called. If I do I'll let you know. If you're interested in how the Enigma machines were cracked I'd recommend or any other Bletchley Park non-fiction.

The Debs of Bletchley Park and Other Stories

mhillis @drokka I had never heard of that one! Stacked! ðŸ“šâ¤ï¸ðŸ’š 7y
