Francis Bacon once said that "...some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested; that is, some books are to be read only in parts; others to be read, but not curiously; and some few are to be read wholly, and with diligence and attention."
I believe I have embarked on a work of the third type, and I know it will take a long while to finish. But when that day comes, that book will truly be mine.
We owe subjection...to all kings, for that concerns their office; but we do not owe esteem... Let us make this concession to the political order: to suffer them patiently if they are unworthy, by commending their indifferent actions if their authority needs our support. But, our dealings over, it is not right to deny to justice and to our liberty the expression of our true feelings.
Already well on my way in the #ColorMyWorld Challenge through the #ChattanoogaPublicLibrary
Here is my #bookspinbingo board for my #JuneTBR!
My #bookspin pick will be a Library Book
My #doublespin pick will be Adrift in Currents Clean & Clear by Seanan McGuire.
I forgot to share! Not only did I read my #bookspin and #doublebookspin picks in May I also got THREE bingos! I think these are my first bingos of the year! #bookspinbingo
Look at me, on top of getting my #bookspin list posted this month! 😏

My May #BookSpinBingo results. Didn't manage to finish my #BookSpin book, but I completed my #DoubleSpin book and got a bingo. Thanks to @TheAromaofBooks for hosting!
Actually got a bingo in May, mainly because Affrilachia is a short book. #bookspin
