Welcome to Litsy!

Finished this one today!! #punnytitle for #ispy #hotdrink for the #scavengerhunt part of a #series for #bookrecommendation #family for #gottacatchemall and #mistakenidentity for #itsatrope #hauntedshelf #flerken @PuddleJumper

My day didn‘t go entirely as planned. Instead of chilling at home while the washer and dryer did their thing, I sweated at the laundromat and schlepped my clothes in and out of the car.

I figured I deserved to take myself out to dinner. There‘s been an eclectic mix of music playing at the restaurant, including Sam Hunt saying he wants to introduce me to his Kindle.

Alas, not his Kindle but his kinfolk.

My first bell hooks but definitely not my last! This one was so fantastic! A slice of life in rural Appalachia.

I read this in the past month and I have to say I loved it!

bell hooks is a new-to-me author and one I want to pick up more of. This haunting collection made me homesick for a place I've never been.

#StorySettings #Farm Wendell Berry is such a gifted writer. Well drawn characters and an incredible sense of place. Though his setting is in Kentucky, there are things in these two books common to farmers everywhere.

Encyclopedic. Very detailed in almost every aspect of life on the Kentucky frontier in the early 1800‘s. Yet written in a way that‘s interesting and entertaining. A lot to be learned with a little adventure thrown in. It is a marathon to read at 848 pages. I‘ve put it down and returned to it many times.

Loved this book! Which I was able to read thanks to @LibraryThing Early Reviewers.

This took me a while to get in to. However, once I did, I was completely immersed.
There was such a stunning piece of prose with one sentiment that will stay with me forever: ‘some things are a gift, even if you don‘t get to keep them.‘

"Maybe just to know that something this beautiful exists is all we can really ask for."

A 5 ? read!
