Welcome to Litsy!

Another year in the books for the Goodreads reading challenge. Now on to 2023.

I love used books. I love knowing I am following the path of another reader unknown to me. Last night I was reading and turned the page to find this little treasure ❤️

Read this for my book club‘s April theme, books/library. It‘s a short collection of quotes curated from C. S. Lewis‘s essays and letters, so probably not super interesting unless you‘re a fan of the author, which I am, so I enjoyed it.🔸#aprilreads2021 #LitsyATXReadersSociety #LARS

I really enjoyed this book and learned a lot about Lewis — he liked all kinds of literature, both high and low brow. In fact, it seems he found that distinction to be artificial and ridiculous. If you‘re only familiar with Lewis from the Narnia books but are interested in his non-fiction, this is a good place to start because you can dip in and out of the book. I was able to get out and walk today. Yay! #audiowalk

This collection of C.S. Lewis essays on reading is my new walking book. I‘ve only listened to about 40 minutes and I already love it. His comment that a book written for children that cannot also be enjoyed by adults is simply a bad book seems spot-on to me. He also said to read Plato if you want to understand Platonism because Plato is easier than the people who write about his work. Headed home now. #audiowalk

We want to see with other eyes, to imagine with other imaginations, to feel with other hearts, as well as with our own.

This sort of thing has actually happened to me! 😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 #LitsyHumor

A nice quick listen. Love Lewis.
