News

Welcome to Books & Articles Weekly, and Happy New Year! I can’t recall a week I have enjoyed more in the territory. There were so many interesting posts. In fact, I’m making a one time exception and award zapping my suggestions this week. I found and enjoyed great content well beyond the top five posts, which were all top notch. I hope you all got as much out of them as I did.

Thanks to everyone who contributed.

There is a zap award for the top 5 posts weekly. It will be broken down as follows:

1000 sats
250 sats
250 sats
250 sats
250 sats

Posts will be judged using SN zaprank. The cut off time is 9:00am EST (1300GMT) Saturday morning. I will post the top 5 winners shortly around 9:00am every Saturday morning.

I reserve the right to not award any sats for the week. I also reserve the right to deny sat awards to bare link posts. I recognize that link posts can be valuable, so I will only only exercise discretion for low quality links that garner few sats or engagement from stackers.

Happy reading!

As always, please reply with suggestions and opinions on how to make this territory better.

-Book recommendation - King Leopold's Ghost by @Signal312

After reading this post by @Signal312 and @elvismercury’s reply, I immediately ran out and got myself a copy. I’m about one third of the way through, and I can’t wait to get back to it this weekend. It is a horrifying factual account of European colonialism in Africa, but the writing is so good it reads like a novel. I am ignorant of this time period and think I am learning a lot. I have included this post in the book reviews.
