Welcome to Litsy!

Classicist Mary Beard explores how powerful women have been treated throughout history. 4⭐️

I attended an author event, this past week, with Rebecca Thorne for the third book in her Tomes and Tea series, and a book was part of the ticket price. So technically that.

But before that, after *makes sweeping gesture at November* I bought the tagged book, along with Prequel by Rachel Maddow and Democracy Awakening by Heather Cox Richardson.

#SundayFunday Have a wonderful day, and don‘t forget to tag me in your posts!

I spent most of my time as a #longtimefed more or less in the realm of soft power. It‘s another topic I can‘t possibly do justice to in 451 characters, except to say I know whereof I speak when it comes to this area.

Pulling direct aid from the developing world, especially in the cruel and abrupt way we did so, opens up a huge space for China to swoop in. But we “need Ukraine‘s minerals” to combat China.

Then we humiliate Zelenskyy in the WH.*

Happy Presidents Day!

3.75 ⭐️ There is a lot to digest from this book and it will need another read to understand it better. #2024 #review #nonfiction #feminism #history

Did some retail therapy the day after the election. 😅 #BookHaul

This book fell a little flat for me. This book is about David, a psychic prodigy who finds out that he is cursed. In desperation, he goes to his ex-boyfriend Rhys and his ex-wife .

This book is powerful. Robert Green is my best writer. He's mysterious. I loved his books, especially this one. He has an amazing and interesting life.

I used it at work. I climbed the ladder from being a newbie to an expert.

If you're struggling to transform yourself. You can use it.

Happy reading.

48 laws of power.

If power were never anything but repressive, if it never did anything but to say no, do you really think one would be brought to obey it? What makes power hold good, what makes it accepted, is simply the fact that it doesn‘t only weigh on us as a force that says no; it also traverses and produces things, it induces pleasure, forms knowledge, produces discourses.
