Welcome to Litsy!

Went to the #library with the bingo prompts. I also picked out some new titles that looked interesting and some that I felt I needed to revisit before reviewing, like Death of Truth. I feel like at one point the tone and message shift but because I heard the audiobook, it's hard to double check. So I got the physical copy! #nonfiction #tbrpile #history #politics #environment #food #lgbtq #mentalhealth #analysis

“Luck isn‘t a plan, and it makes for terrible social and economic policy.” - Stephanie Kelton, in the foreword to Dr. Tressie McMillan Cottom‘s Lower Ed. #sociology #analysis

Started this, which I‘ve been meaning to read since I got a preorder in 2017, last night. First book of May for me.

This inspiration for this writing lesson is the sentence that opens The Bell Jar: “It was a queer, sultry summer, the summer they electrocuted the Rosenbergs, and I didn‘t know what I was doing in New York.”

Quite enjoying this book. I‘m not much of a re-reader but it‘s time I revisited the classics I devoured in my youth. After all, much like the proverbial river, we‘re never the same reader twice, are we?

I forgot to post this last week, but we have a new episode of Unassigned Rereading, where we talk about fan community, the fan theories we got right (and wrong), and dive deep into my past as a fanfic writer.

I took the more recent #Pottermore #quiz.

Previous results: #Slytherin, buzzard, elder wood with a phoenix feather core 10 3/4” and unyielding, #Wampus.

Today‘s results: #Ravenclaw, beagle, maple wood with a phoenix feather core 10 3/4” and unyielding, #HornedSerpent.

New episode of Unassigned Reading out today! @sebrittain and I discuss how we got involved in the HP fandom, fan theories, and which of us wrote Harry Potter fanfic back in the day. You can find it on itunes, spotify, stitcher, or wherever you listen to podcasts
