#Falling #Cider one of my best friends loves these Donuts so if I see them before she gets out to Trader Joes I snap a photo ! One of their seasonal items , when it‘s gone , it‘s gone ! 😄
‼️‼️‼️From the introduction.
Yes , I need more Freedoms not less . Hoping to dip into this soon. Foner is a good historian.
My cat Dusty , is feeling under the weather. She was at the Vet yesterday, nothing was found. I‘m hoping this might cheer her up . She is perking up a little.
pickNYC the end of 1937 , Katey Kontent is a NY native who works for a living finds herself meeting & getting entangled in New York‘s smart set. Towles 1st novel is a love story to New York City. Interesting details & descriptions of the culture, night life, & how we get caught up in others lives. I‘m the odd one out I guess, I like this one better than his highly regarded “A Gentleman In Moscow” Not that I didn‘t enjoy that one too!😄
#Falling #LibraryFun two I got on my most recent library trip . unfortunately haven‘t started either one yet !
Sophie says hi on #Caturday I want to read but doing some cleaning, sigh 😮💨 #CatsOfLitsy
#bookplates was sifting through the stacks,I don‘t think I posted this one yet !
Happy Labor Day ! From my t-shirt purchased in San Pedro ,CA . 2001
#Falling #Wildlife my mom loved Hummingbirds. The great thing about birds in general even if you live in a dense city , you will interact with birds. This book looks good , spotted it while browsing the local Barnes & Noble. Bird books in general make me remember that mom loved to maintain hummingbird feeding stations, seed feeders for other types of birds .
pickGreat Read ! Roman has come a long way from the small town he was raised in & the families crematorium.A financial wiz living well in Atlanta, he goes back home , his father is ill . Nothing could prepare him for the extreme situations he is drawn into with his younger brother & the crazy criminal elements that kind of run things in Jefferson Run . A great ride w/ twists and a well told story, characters with depth. 1 of the best I read this yr!
#CharacterCharm #Librarian Nancy Pearl started recommending books on a Seattle public radio segment. It grew into a series of books . She recommended so many great books over the years , fiction, non-fiction, historical, series etc. Her books were always fun to browse, it‘s fun to pick a category you may not have tried before,she always has a knack for finding a good title to try to see if you might want to read further!
pickI didn‘t watch the show they were on ,Sweet Home Oklahoma, I often listen to their podcast I‘ve Had It ! They met as a professional consultation, as Angie admits she has no taste, & sought out Jen as a decorator. What developed was an enduring friendship between two women. They were each others rock ,it was enjoyable to read their backstory! They always helped each other through the highs and lows of marriage, addiction, kids ,& life in general .
#CharacterCharm #Judge What a legal mind! She is missed .
pickThis is my team , they are basically out of the running . I did really enjoy this collection of essays on the storied history of the Giants, their best players & world series wins! I love the style of this book , it‘s almost like you are sitting having a coffee with Alex as he tells these stories. He doesn‘t forget to mention the weirdness & cold of Candlestick Park ,the great announcers & clubhouse legend Mike Murphy!
#CharacterCharm #Artist Have always been fascinated by her paintings. Often, her portraits are shocking, stark .She struggled a lot to continue making art . There was a great documentary years ago , 2007 made by one of her sons.
It‘s #caturday and Sophie finds my smelly old yard work hat a good place to plop ! #CatsOfLitsy
@dabbe Australia Kit Kat ! Though I think it is crazy to ship stuff this far , it‘s sustainably sourced chocolate if the wrapper is to be believed. Hard to resist,Cost Plus World Market.
pickWhat a joy this book was !With Californias Mediterranean climate most things will grow there.An overview of the history of private & public gardens all over the golden state . I was surprised how many from the earliest days were designed by women.Some are historical, some reflect all the cultural influences over time.Spanish colonial, indigenous, Japanese tea Gardens , and those that were influenced by traditional gardens from back east or the UK
Sometimes you need to treat yourself! Happy Friday!
#CharacterCharm #Thief The saint has his own moral code ,he tends to make life miserable for bad guys who never seem to face justice.A bit of a Robin Hood , he steals things maybe to get it back to a victim or to make a difference in someone‘s life. Roger Moore was a delight in the TV version.
pickDon‘t call them prolife ,call them probirth & anti-woman.This book charts the aftermath of dismantling Roe .The fact that often abortion is really just health care ,oftentimes the health of the mother & a fetus that is determined to not be viable are the reasons, yet some of these laws in some states would criminalize healthcare workers for actually doing their jobs.The personal stories in this volume should make it clear this system isn‘t right.
Library book found ! Checked it out for the #whartonbuddyread of the Bunner sisters ,got mixed into a stack that I didn‘t get to the bottom of where it shouldn‘t have been anyway as I like to keep Library books separate for just this reason! 😂📚📚🙄
Hey Littens ! Please send finding energy! I‘ve lost a library book in my house! 😱😕📚👻
#CharacterCharm #Scientist Another brick of a book I‘ve had in the stash for awhile and have yet to attempt! #Chunkster
#CharacterCharm #Spy I think I‘m kind of a #seriesfail I thought when I saw this on my nightstand of shame, when did I read the Silva before this one ? January of 2023! 😱😕😄Sophie photo bomb #catsofLitsy
pickI think maybe why people don‘t like this one as much as The Last Thing He Told Me is a difference in pace, as Last Thing is more of a thriller. This one is more of a mystery, slower paced , with essentially distant half siblings trying to figure out if their father fell to his death or was pushed . Old family secrets, and the authors great details of coastal CA. NYC, and upstate NY made for an enjoyable read . I didn‘t guess the twist!
#CharacterCharm #King you can always count on the Game of Thrones series to have a few kings !
I‘m only about 50 pages in , trying to take a break from some of the depressing non fiction I‘m reading. Not abandoning any but sometimes need a break!
#CharacterCharm #Queen My friend is reading Gregory , on one of my swings through the used bookstore, found a couple she needed.👏
The current Regime has me listening to more podcasts, watching more YouTube videos than reading,much to my detriment. I was over at Book Gallery and grabbed these pretty Colette editions to go with several I already have . Book gallery has first editions, signed books , also a great selection of general used titles affordable to all readers !
Someone had to be in a different space after 3 loads of laundry! Oops, bought some books!
Grabbed off the interweb thingy
