Here‘s some fun information: Aldi currently has some creepy coffee in stock. I mean, the coffee itself isn‘t creepy. It won‘t be sneaking into your room in the middle of the night to stare at you while you sleep or anything. But the name of the blends are based on creepiness!
While we chose to get the Ravens Roast, they also have a Sleepy Hollow blend. I‘m hoping they‘ll still have it when we grocery shop again so we can try that, too.
Edgar Allan Poe is a master of horror. If you are looking for spooky vibes you don‘t have to look far. I have an awesome anthology of all his works, and it‘s a perfect read for this time of year. 👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻
Head over to readinginthewildwood.com to see some of my favorites by Edgar Allan Poe.
My #AuthorPotpourri and Bookish question of the day posts didn‘t go through today, apparently 😧🙈😔! Let‘s hope this batch of posts does...
Last year was the first time I attended this particular #DramaticReading, and here I was again tonight 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻! A dramatic reading of some of #EdgarAllanPoe‘s works, like “The Tell-Tale Heart” and “The Raven”! In a 100+-year-old library 🤯!!! Went with book club folks, and we had a BLAST! 🥳
If any ambitious man have a fancy to revolutionize, at one effort, the universal world of human thought, human opinion, and human sentiment, the opportunity is his own—the road to immortal renown lies straight, open, and unencumbered before him. All that he has to do is to write and publish a very little book. Its title should be simple—a few plain words—"My Heart Laid Bare." But—this little book must be true to its title.
E. A. Poe

Had to be Poe! I couldn't find my book in the Litsy database so linking to something similar.

All of Poe's short stories, his novel "The Tale of Arthur Gordon Pym," and a selection of his poetry. When Poe is good, he's really good, but when he's not, it is pretty mediocre. The first half of the novel is an exciting and harrowing adventure, but the second half is racist, colonialist bullshit. The poetry is the strongest section, but is probably helped by being curated.
Hangin' out with Poe on this snowy day.
