Welcome to Litsy!

#PublishedInThe1970s #JubilantJuly

The twenties are as frenetic a decade as the teens. You have a voice inside your head repeating “I want, I want, I want,” but you don‘t know what you want or how to get it. You hardly know who you are. You go on instinct. And your instinct mostly pushes you toward adventures you won‘t grasp until you look back on them. Life can only be understood backward, but it must be lived forward, some sage once said.

Devastating, but so important. #publishedinthe1970s #jubilantjuly

Who else remembers this book? My teachers liked to have us watch the cartoon too. Every year, lol. And for some reason, my best friend has no memory of it. #publishedinthe1970s #jubilantjuly

#jubilantjuly day 27: #publishedinthe1970s
I was born in 1979 so was pleased to learn that these wonderful books were published that year!

After some searching on Goodreads, I found that these two great books were both #publishedinthe1970s. Then I was amused to discover that I had them right next to each other on the shelf! #jubilantjuly

#publishedinthe1970s #jubilantjuly I keep forgetting about these series and really need to pick them up again. #historicalfiction #historicalmystery

Day 27 #JubilantJuly #Publishedinthe1970s #90sinJuly #KidsinAmerica Even though the song is from the 90s, I'm combining photo challenges today & offering up what I (a kid in America) was reading with these 6 favorite books of mine that were published in the '70s. I would have been reading these in the mid-to late part of the decade in my preteen/teen years. I adored Paula Danziger, Lois Duncan & Judy Blume books the most.💜📚💜 #multitasking

I need to get back into these photo challenges so I'll hop on the end of #jubilantjuly and hopefully manage August! For #publishedinthe1970s my pick is 1975's Ragtime which is a gorgeous sprawling novel set in early 20th century America, this is also a pride of my book collection as it's one of the few first editions I have that dates back to before I was born 🙂
