Welcome to Litsy!

I saw the musical Les Miserable for the first time in 1987. I lost count of how many times I went to see it again and again after that. It is, in my opinion, #THEShow

I‘m making a scoodie for my hubby. Perfect time to start this #audiobook. #audiocrocheting #crocheting #lesmis #hoopla #litsyloveslibraries

So I took my book to Staples, had them slice off the spine, made color copies of the cover, cut those down to size, divided the book into the five sections and had Staples spiral-bind them. So much easier to read this way! I‘m in the Cosette section now.

MY FAVORITE BOOK, HANDS DOWN! It took me three years and several starts to get through it after buying an old hardback edition that doesn't even have a publisher or date listed. That was 10 years ago, and that tome is still one of my greatest treasures (and one of my greatest accomplishments). I tell my English students that this is the greatest story of redemption there is next to the Bible. The Bishop is my favorite character!

Any other musical theater fans? Sing along. One more day.....ONE DAYYYY MOOOOREEEEE. #SecretSantaGoesPostal #WinterSolsticeBookExchange @BookishMarginalia

I don't read much that I would describe as overt #politicalfiction. But I am learning more and more that everything is political--that everything has a consequence, that everything is significant. Something to keep in mind on Election Day. #photoadaynov16

Just a few of the many #blackbooks that I have. This was all I could fit in the square pic.

Reading this on the Serial Reader App, which I highly recommend. It gives you 10-20 mins snippets of reading each day, allowing you to tackle something in parts. (Not associated with this app in any -- just a huge fan!)
