Welcome to Litsy!

I've been forgetting to post my #BookspinBingo lists lately. 😅

Here's my December list. I have a multitude of christmas or winter books to choose from, so I'll go with mood reading for this month.

I have buddyreads for #NaturaLitsy #VirginiaBloomsberries #BookedInTime #SheSaid #AAM #LosersClub #HashtagBrigade #QueerBC 📚

Starting with the tagged. 🙂

This was okay. Many interesting ideas about time travel and how you would view the time before. I thought there were some ideas not explored enough (I kept thinking about smells which he barely mentioned). It is interesting to read something written 50 years ago that is a time travel book , you have to "travel" back to the 70s to think about what he would know and how different another 80 years would be.
Kindred ruined me for these types ?

“La Belle Époque translates to "the beautiful era," a period of French and European history from roughly 1871 to 1914, defined by optimism, peace, and prosperity, though not without its own social and political tensions. It was a time of cultural, scientific, and technological advancements, including the development of Impressionism, and the construction of the Eiffel Tower. What are you reading?

November 2025 New York Gilded Age
I knew very little about this topic. The history of electricity, the battle between AC and DC. I was pleasantly surprised. I would recommend checking it out.

#WeeklyForecast is "Too many books, too little time"

Tagged needs to go back to the library soon so have started it, I am 30 pages in and unsure.

Private Revolutions is a Women's Prize long list and I am still in Nonfiction November so going to get through that. Time and Again doubles and both a #10BeforeTheEnd and #BookedInTime read.

We will see how the US holiday week goes!

Interesting history of not only the family, but also, the Gilded Age, and NYC. It helped me make better sense of 'The Swans of Fifth Avenue' by Melanie Benjamin.

Another bingo this month! #BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

Up next for #BookedInTime #BookedInTimeNovember2025 . It's set a little outside the guilded age years but I think 1905 is considered guilded age still to some - close enough anyways. I've heard good things about this book and even the librarian commented on it when I checked it out so looking forward to this read! Hoping to start it later this evening.

Very repetitive and slow, but the early medieval history was interesting.

80/80
