Welcome to Litsy!

A strong sociological study of the Great Migration. Statistics and historical facts revolve around three figures who escaped the South in order to be free. To become American citizens. I'm so grateful to have read this book. #OtherSuns @megnews

A sports update: The Norwegian Handball team is playing in the final tomorrow. And there will be more chess in the time between Christmas and New Year with Rapid and Blitz World Championships.

Continued The Warmth of Other Suns #OtherSuns

I‘ve finished Samlede Verker
I read Snømannens jul, A Boy Called Christmas and The Girl who Saved Christmas.

I‘m still reading my advent calendar books.
And I‘m almost done with the book on octopuses.

Update on the chess: The winner is the one that first reaches 7,5 points and Magnus Carlsen did that yesterday and won his 5th championship title in the classical chess.

Worth five solid and fascinating stars. Wilkerson follows three people who leave the South and chase a brighter day. She tells about their dreams, many of which don‘t come to fruition the way the dreamer hoped. The migrants land in Chicago, NYC, and Los Angeles. So Wilkerson discusses life in all those areas during the turbulence of the 20th century. Highly recommend!

I completely forgot when I was my making my weekly forecast, that December started this week.

So I continued reading The Warmth of Other Suns #OtherSuns

I started the tagged book and Du Grøne, Glitrende.
I‘ve also started the following advent calendar books: Adventsstjernen, Seldas julekalender and I desember

I know many of you struggled with this book, but I‘ve seen a few reviews so I know some of you have persevered. I myself have fallen behind… sorry, that I‘m the one dropping the ball here. I am determined however to finish it yet this week! I am learning a lot, but I do feel like I need to force myself to pick it up at times. So please discuss what you learned, loved, struggled with…it will all motivate me to catch up. Again, sorry I fell behind.
