The Invention of Nature: Alexander von Humboldt's New World | Andrea Wulf

#NaturalLitsy @AllDebooks

I‘m only on ch 7 but I‘m loving this. I demand a dramatized TV series!!

“What speaks to the soul escapes our measurements” Humboldt

AllDebooks I am utterly besotted with the book, writing, the man, and his story. Legend. 💚 1w

Questionnaire | Evan Kindley

Hi people,

Are there any Litsy non-fiction reading groups? Thanks. Remember never trust a sock after it‘s been in a dryer alone

Chrissyreadit 🤣 What are you interested in reading? Everything is Tuberculosis is on my radar- and there was a non fiction activity- @TheBookHippie do remember who organized it? or are you thinking of starting one George? 1w

TheBookHippie It was #nonfictionnerds by Daria -I primarily read nonfiction I‘d love a new group .. (edited) 1w

TheBookHippie @dariazeoli 1w

TheBookHippie @Chrissyreadit I want to read that too. 1w

TEArificbooks I love nonfiction. I‘d be interested in a group too 1w

TheBookHippie @TEArificbooks @Chrissyreadit I miss having the group so much. Maybe we should start it up again. I‘ll ask Daria if she minds 🤷🏻‍♀️ 1w

Deblovestoread I‘d love to read Everything with a group. 1w

dariazeoli I‘ve been summoned from the crypt where I slumber!😉 Great idea to resurrect. I never deleted the GR Group either if it‘s needed. 1w

TheBookHippie @dariazeoli YAY 🎉🥳🎉🎊👏🏻🎊🎉🥳🎉 1w

Chrissyreadit 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 @dariazeoli 1w

Amiable I was in that GR group! Nonfiction nerd over here as well. Would love to resurrect! 1w

dariazeoli Woot! I‘ll make the group over there public again; looks like it‘s secret. Happy to add new mods unless y‘all prefer to keep it solely Litsy side. 1w

Bookwormjillk I don't have a GR account but if you all decide to do something over here please tag me. @trashcanman #NaturalLitsy by @alldebooks is mostly non-fiction as well. 1w

AllDebooks @Bookwormjillk thanks for the tag 😀 1w

AllDebooks I'm up for a non-fiction club. #Shesaid run by @Riveted_Reader_Melissa is non-fiction too, mostly feminist and women's rights 1w

AllDebooks @Trashcanman if you go ahead, tag @LitsyEvents in your post, and we will share it for you 😀 1w

Trashcanman @dariazeoli Hi Daria! I‘d prefer to keep it just in Litsy but I don‘t know if we won‘t to vote on it. Thanks for doing this. 1w

Trashcanman @AllDebooks I certainly will 1w

dariazeoli @Trashcanman that makes sense, just thought I‘d offer. #nonfictionnerds is yours! Keep me posted; I may read along silently! 1w

quietlycuriouskate Please tag me if it's going ahead just in Litsy. I'm not sure what I can realistically commit to at this point but I'd like to stay in the loop. 1w

ncsufoxes I primarily read nonfiction (but I feel I‘m horrible at committing to buddy reads since life gets complicated & I can‘t finish on a set timeline). I‘d love to be tagged & follow along. I always love to find out interesting reads that others have found that aren‘t on my radar. 1w

Trashcanman @dariazeoli wait, you want me to run it? Oh snap. 💀 1w

MonicaLoves2Read I read nonfiction and would love to be tagged. 1w

PurpleyPumpkin I don‘t read enough nonfiction despite buying lots in that genre. Would love to be tagged if this ends up moving forward!🙌🏽 1w

Trashcanman @dariazeoli Okay I don‘t know where to start but I‘ll start something. lol 1w

TheBookHippie @Trashcanman George do you want help ? We can get the hashtag up and running make a list for the rest of the year? 4d

Trashcanman @TheBookHippie 👋🏽 Hello, some help would be nice. I‘ve never done something like this. I‘d like the group to suggest some books. @Chrissyreadit suggested one and that‘s fine with me. I love all types of non-fiction. I guess I could ask the Litsy thing to post about it. I‘d like two to three book options. That sounds good I‘d like help. 2d

TheBookHippie @Trashcanman yes tuberculosis! @Chrissyreadit what should we do next? 1d

Chrissyreadit @thebookhippie and George- i have seen surveys put together to vote- do we do that with @alldebooks ? I cannot remember- but then vote on choices or topics- which could be fun- pick a nonfiction topic- use discussion about it and answer based on the specific book read? 1d

TheBookHippie @Chrissyreadit several folks do surveys for books @catsandbooks does it beautifully with her monthly reads. 1d

AllDebooks @Chrissyreadit we did vote for #NaturaLitsy but I just select from nominated books for the year now. I used Google forms @Trashcanman 1d

Catsandbooks @TheBookHippie thanks! A Google form is super easy to set up and share if you're wanting to vote 24h

#FiveJoysFriday

Thank you for the tag, @dabbe . @DebinHawaii - my five joys for Friday are:
1. Longer days - it's still daylight at 5pm. Spring will come!
2. A cup of coffee in a pretty mug.
3. Litsy- I'm receiving #naturallitsy and #litsyholidaycardswap and each one brings me a moment of happiness.
4. My hubs and my kiddo ❤️
5. Raven, Biscuit and Willie Nelson- my pets enrich my life so much.

Chrissyreadit ❤️❤️❤️❤️ 6mo

The Ultimate Reading Challenge: Complete a Goal, Open an Envelope, and Reveal Your Bookish Prize! | Weldon Owen

Help a Litten out! I'm wanting to get back into reading challenges this year but I'm having a hard time figuring out what Litsy is hosting these days. It looks like a few I used to do aren't active anymore. Are there any I should know about? (I'm planning to do #bookspin with @TheAromaofBooks and #agathachristieclubR3 with @Librarybelle, of course!)

Picture of my dog's dumb teeth for tax!

TheAromaofBooks I'm participating in - #Pantone2025 and #FourFoursin25 with @lauredhel
- #WickedWords with @AsYouWish
- #Roll100 and #GottaCatchEmAll with @PuddleJumper
- #FictionalTraveler and #ReadorDonate with @julieclair
and my own other challenges, #ISpyBingo and #BookChain

Have you checked @LitsyEvents ? That account does a great job reposting all kinds of shenanigans!! 7mo

Ruthiella You can follow @LitsyEvents for reposts of all the challenges, etc. Good luck! 😃 7mo

AmyG There is #authoramonth @soubhiville where one reads 1+ books from that specific author for the month. #TBRTarot is where a card is chosen and you pick a corresponding book. #readyourkindle is like Bookspin but just for ereaders. Last two are with @Cbee (edited) 7mo

Trixie & I are hanging out for #HyggeHour tonight, along with Sleepytime tea & some peanut butter & jelly M&Ms. (I feel like these are better in theory than in taste but they aren‘t bad, because… chocolate) 😉

Looking forward to a shorter week with the holiday although it will still be a busy one & I need to work Friday morning. 🤷🏻‍♀️
