Welcome to Litsy!

Gearing up for book club, which is not the type of club with rules against talking about it. 😉 #FridayHappyReadingHour

Dimos is a reporter who is sent to the war front to write about war hero General Wilder but when he is kidnapped by the anarchists of Hron, he learns there is more than the imperial and capitalistic ideals of his homeland.

I could have not read this and been okay in life. 🤣

The blustery winter scene outside the window is nicer than the book cover.

Belated #FridayHappyReadingHour!

This is a bookclub pick for December. Ummmmmmm super festive? 😳 Reading between baking batches of Crinkles.

We do not care if it offends or upsets you because it‘s a political post and not “book-related,” because we‘re going to say it anyway: If you support a man who thinks teaching people that owning human beings is “woke,” you might be —nay, you ARE —a fascist Nazi.

Go ahead. The unfollow button is right up there. ⬆️ Don‘t let the door hit you on the way out.

Very interesting book. I did struggle with reading it on its own without constantly comparing it to the movie. However, it was interesting to see the similarities and differences. Overall, I did like the book, and found it to be thought provoking.

I found the first section of the pamphlet incisive and inspirational, as Vaneigem sets out, via the Situationist concept of the Spectacle, how Capitalism oppresses people, and of how the discontents felt by most people living under this oppression point the way towards their liberation.

I borrowed this from my local library today. I normally don't read graphic novels, but I figured I'd give it a try. I've seen the movie, so I'm curious how it will compare.
