Welcome to Litsy!

I remember as a child and seeing The Earth's Children everywhere. I knew just by looking at the covers that they were going to be great reads. I just forgot about them. Thank goodness they are in my universe again. In fact, I can't wait to finish reading the series just to start again. This one, in particular, is the best at survival in the wild - the Ice Age wild.

This was my first of Bernard Cornwell. It wasn't the greatest book, so I'm told, so I'll look for some others of his to enjoy. I was expecting more historical fiction rather than fantasy, and it took a while to really get into it because of all the dealings in war & with the gods. It, overall, was good but kind of so-so. I'll donate this to my little free library.

I decided that I should own more of the women‘s studies books that I am reading so I can *gasp* write in them.

But I‘m going to return “who‘s afraid of gender” because I think I can find it used and I‘ll feel better writing in a preloved copy.

Could you ever write in a book?

Ah, FRM!

Sid has been getting his inner Social Scientist in gear with this first edition of the young readers adaptions of Harari‘s Sapiens. This first book explores how humans (Homo Sapiens) came to dominate the planet, with particular focus on our dominance over other human species and animals in the Stone Age. Core concepts are really clearly and cleverly explained, the book is beautifully illustrated and it‘s a compelling narrative.
