#1960s

One-Shot Harry | Gary Phillips
Pickpick

Race and civil rights in the early 1960s in LA are the setting for this historical thriller. I found the characters interesting. There were discussions of the Korean War, a photographer and part time server of warrants. Martin Luther King was involved near the end of the book. Harry was the photographer who was capturing history in his pictures. 3.5/5

#JuneSpecials #Beatles Of course I‘ve browsed the McCartney photo book many times, I grabbed the other one at a concert at the Musical Instrument Museum a while back & haven‘t read it yet . Definitely an iconic group in the Rock canon !

Did this one a few days ago & debated on posting it since it won‘t make much sense to you if you haven‘t seen it, but what the heck. This is from another of my favorite episodes of Mad Men, S5E10, Christmas Waltz. If you haven‘t seen Mad Men I can‘t recommend it enough!

Today‘s haiku is inspired by one of my favorite episodes of my all-time fave show, Mad Men. If you‘ve seen S3E7, Guy Walks Into An Advertising Agency, you‘ll get me. 🤓

never fear, Lois is here!
No more golf for Guy…

JenlovesJT47 @dabbe greatest show of all time! Although I may be biased 😬. It‘s a fantastic character study. I‘ve seen it 30+ times and I still catch new things on each rewatch. 🤓 1mo

Our local library branch had a used book sale this weekend. My daughter & I stopped by earlier today, towards the end of the sale. We got 5 books for $3. These both were in new condition. Not that I need more but 2 I‘ve never read & happy to support our library.

AmyG Ooooo In Cold Blood is such a great book. 3mo
