1. Where do we go when we die? Or do we just die?
2. Is time travel possible? If it takes millions of years for a star‘s light to reach us, isn‘t that a form of time travel? The light we see from stars existed millions of years ago, and we‘re seeing it NOW. #timewarp
3. I want to be in a little bubble where I can travel the universe and see everything.

Tagging everybody! And @Eggs @TheSpineView @TheBookHippie @SamAnne @CBee @ravenlee

IndoorDame Pretty sure my mother thinks time travel is possible. I got some email from her with a link to a science article claiming it had been proven. Then again, it could have been a joke. I‘m never quite sure with her… 🤔🤣 3mo

dabbe @TheSpineView 🤩😍😘 3mo

dabbe @IndoorDame Man, I would LOVE if it were possible. Now I have to go watch BILL AND TED'S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE again. 🤩😂😍 3mo

A History of Reading | Alberto Manguel

I'm a day late posting, due to misplacing my phone charger yesterday. As any Litten knows who has been following me, I love Alberto Manguel. I've posted several times about A Dictionary of Imaginary Places & The Library at Night. The tagged book is separated by themes (The Shape of the Book, The Author as Reader, Stealing Books etc). Manguel ranges through history of the written word & humanity's evolution of reading into what we know today. 👇

vivastory A true #timewarp A little more scholarly than Library at Night & Packing My Library. Still a fascinating, informative & passionate book. #MusicalNewYear @Cinfhen 5y

vivastory I should also mention that there are scores of illustrations in this one. 5y

Leftcoastzen Don‘t you just hate it when that happens!☹️ 5y

vivastory @Leftcoastzen normally I would have just bought a replacement, but I was snowed in 😬😂 5y

The Years | Virginia Woolf

pick

This late Woolf novel follows members of the Partiger family, jumping from 1880 to 1891 to 1907 and so on, ending around 1937. Along the way, people marry and die, there are big events and small. Always the feeling pervades that we are alone, and connection is elusive. The style and scope is less intimate than Woolf's other novels I've read. Overall, a thoughtful albeit melancholic exploration of time, change and purpose.

merelybookish Not really about a #timewarp but time is close enough right? #musicalnewyear @Cinfhen @vivastory 5y

Cinfhen Great review!! And that‘s a #timewarp 5y

batsy I'll never get tired of looking at this cover! 5y

vivastory Are you reading all of Virginia Woolf this year? This sounds wonderful I 5y

merelybookish @vivastory Yes, I'm going to try. I don't expect to read it all but will see how far I get. 5y

vivastory If I was to spend a year reading only one author, Woolf would definitely be in my top 5 choices 5y

merelybookish @vivastory I think it was a Litsy meme that planted the seed. If you could only read one writer for a year, who would it be ... Woolf was the obvious answer and then it made me think I'd like to try. 5y

merelybookish @batsy I like these editions too. I've found a few at Goodwill. One upside/downside is there is no supplementary material. In a way, it removes some of the weight but it also means there's no easy way to learn more about the book. 5y

batsy Ah, that's a bit of a bummer. I'm a supplementary material nerd, I must admit. It's why I adore the black Penguin Classics 😁 5y

11/22/63: A Novel | Stephen King

This is one of my favorite books by Stephen King especially since I found it so different from his other books. It seemed fitting for the #TimeWarp prompt. #MusicalNewYear @vivastory @Cinfhen

Slajaunie Loved this book! This book is the only reason I read any of his others. (edited) 5y

Reviewsbylola This was my first King and I loved it. I wish he‘d write another book in this vein. 5y

NatalieR One of my favorite King novels too! 5y

Timeline | Michael Crichton

I read this years ago, after my daughter, who is not an avid reader, finished it and recommended it to me. Fast paced. Time travel adventure. #timewarp #musicalnewyear

Cinfhen, vivastory

Cinfhen Crichton ruled for many years!!! Haven‘t read this one 5y

DivineDiana @Cinfhen This is the only Crichton that I‘ve read. It was also made into a movie. 5y

vivastory Wasn't aware there was a movie of this 5y

DivineDiana @vivastory I haven‘t seen it though. So not certain if it lives up to the book! 😉 5y

Life After Life: A Novel | Kate Atkinson

Ursula exists in some kind of #timewarp that allows her to die and come back over and over. Planning to start this later this month for the buddy read hosted by @Ingerella and @Pruzy (check back through the posts on this book for the schedule if you're interested). Looking forward to it!

CarolynM Great choice👏👏👏 Great book too🙂 5y

Susannah I loved this book. It was a wonderful combination of complex and readable. And it‘s representation of London during the Blitz (just a portion of the story) was terrifically vivid. I hope you like it! 5y

Cinfhen That book drove me nuts!!! ( not in a good way) 😜😜😜But that‘s an #unpopularopinion (edited) 5y

Cinfhen Good pick for prompt!!! 5y

vivastory Fantastic choice. I've been meaning to read this forever, might have to join the buddy read! 5y

readordierachel @CarolynM So glad to hear you loved it! 5y

readordierachel @Susannah It sounds wonderful! I'm so excited to read it, especially after that glowing review 😊 5y

readordierachel @Cinfhen Haha! 😂 Hopefully I don't have the same issues with it that you do. But hey, not every book works for every person. That's life! 5y

readordierachel @vivastory Yes!! Do it! I've had this on my shelf for ages and took the buddy read as a sign that it was time, haha 5y

vivastory I'm sold! I will definitely join in. This will be my first Atkinson. Have you read her before? 5y

merelybookish I love this book and its companion just as much, if not more!!

God in Ruins

readordierachel @vivastory Yay! I haven't yet, this'll be my first too. 5y

readordierachel @merelybookish That's what I like to hear! Can't wait 5y
