Litsy has brought so many incredible people into my life, choosing one to nominate is not nearly enough...

I‘ve been lucky enough to find a special real life friend here in my own city, so I‘d love to see my good friend @Eyelit win some Litsy love this year. ❤️❤️❤️ She‘s a book club organizer, graphic novel influencer, terrific cat mom, and fun virtual hangout pal when you can‘t leave the house.

Eyelit 🥰😘🥰😘🥰 3y

My #bookhaul from our weekend trip to Boston and a stop at the Brattle Book Shop: three nonfiction reads (a book about pandemics, one about conjoined twins, and the third about George Washington and the Newburgh conspiracy) and a classic. 👍🏼

Amiable I feel like @ljuliel might be intrigued by the tagged book? Don‘t know why —maybe because you like quirky nonfiction as much as I do? 🧐 4y
ljuliel Thank you for the tag. Yes, I‘m always interested in the quirky books, unusual titles or characters. I‘m not as much into the bestsellers list, but more odd books that don‘t get as much notice. I‘ll check it out ! 4y
LeahBergen Great haul! 4y

Pickpick

I enjoyed this memoir that blends the story of the author‘s season in a traveling sideshow act with her mother‘s life after a serious stroke. The way the two parts were woven together worked well, but I did enjoy the stories about the sideshow more. It‘s not something I ever really felt the need to learn, but it was interesting. I also enjoyed the bits of history she included (see the comments for my favorite).
