Welcome to Litsy!

This was a pick, but just barely. I found the main character annoying, (mainly due to the social norms of the time) particularly early in the book. Enjoyed the mystery aspect. On the other hand, I did get through this one- I‘ve had a few bails this month 🤷‍♀️ Read this for #tbrtarot @CBee

This was beautiful & sad, with an undercurrent of violence that comes with the territory of "taming" a wild animal. I found it moving in a lot of aspects, & appreciated the biographical aspects of White's life as integral to Macdonald's attempt to work things out within herself. The saddest thing was contemplating these hawks & falcons; do humans have to mess with nature in order to heal themselves? All throughout I just wanted Mabel to be free.

I absolutely loved this book. I'm so glad that I finally read it. Edward Dantes is wrongfully thrown in prison, but after almost 2 decades, he escapes. He then finds hidden treasure and then goes after the people who wronged him 🖤

Kind of lovely when book serendipity happens. Randomly picked H is for Hawk for the #TBRtarot this month, but as I see now it will feature T.H. White quite heavily because he wrote The Goshawk. It's something I didn't consciously register when I picked this up. Super illuminating to read this though, after reading The Once and Future King for the first time with the #OAFKingalong group!

I‘m not sure what to do about this…as far as historical fiction, it is well-researched. It‘s a decent read, if dry. I don‘t hold Little Women as dearly in my heart like many do, so that‘s not my issue either. I won‘t count this author out, I just think this one didn‘t resonate with me. Pictured: A.

Decided on my May pick for #TBRtarot and am very much looking forward to it! @CBee

Long time no post 😅 I‘m still alive.Took an unintended social media break. I‘ve been reading, just haven‘t had energy to post on here. In any case I‘m hoping to get back to posting on here now that my life has calmed down a bit. I really need to get caught up with all the #bookspin #roll100 #tbrtarot reads I‘ve been going through 😅 But first it‘s back to the garden with me. Enjoy this picture of Delilah whose favorite place to sit is the dirt.

This was our textbook for my Intro to Film Genre class. I really enjoyed reading this. It goes over each genre‘s history, typologies/themes/theories, and closes with a close-up of one film.There are 13 different genres represented. If this interests you, I suggest checking out StudioBinder on YouTube. I‘m realizing things about films I‘ve never noticed before. #TBRTarot Which has a yellow cover

A book with picture on its spine!
