Welcome to Litsy!

Somewhat bookish related. The most annoying part of puzzling-is getting all the way done except for ONE PIECE that was not in the box. I checked everywhere to see if I had dropped it. No piece to be found. So I‘m assuming it just wasn‘t in the box to begin with 😪*insert angry dinosaur noises*

This is a #graphicnovel that I received though #netgalley and enjoyed it. The Tell Tale Heart was my favorite.

Boy am I glad to be rid of this!

Going to start this (not exactly the title stored on Litsy, but close). Got it for 20p at charity book sale years ago. The font size is tiny! Already think I‘m not going to like it, but at least that would clear a space on my over-burdened bookshelves.

Edgar Allen Poe‘s has been one of my favorite authors for as long as I can remember. I have loved every single story he had written

Mine is tagged. Poe has an amazing way of making life seem worse than death. In many ways it can be true and I think that's what makes his writings so horrifying. We're all afraid of the fate worse than death.
What about you guys? 😃

Fridays are for literary shirts! #literaryshirt #englishteacher #teachersoflitsy

Wow! What a glorious box! What a beautiful cross stitch of the raven! I‘ve not cross stitched in years! And what a fun kit to try. I also received collected stories of Edgar Allan Poe and Villa America, which looks good! There is also chocolate, and journals, and some really interesting looking scratcher things. And Mrs Incredible magnets. I‘m a very lucky girl!!! Thanks so much!!! #makerswap

An excellent manga adaptation of Poe's works. I have not previously read these stories and have a feeling I would not enjoy them as much outside of this manga format. The art styles were all distinct and very appropriate for each story. I especially loved the art during the masquerade scene in Masque of the Red Death and the way Usher was drawn The Fall of the House of Usher.
5/5 stars

Some of Poe's most popular stories are presented as a manga in this fantastic book. The original text is used, and the illustrations are as creepy and atmospheric as Poe's writing. This will make an excellent addition to any middle school or high school classroom that already reads Poe's work, especially for students who struggle with the language. Any fan of Edgar Allan Poe will enjoy this collection. *Read via Netgalley

Hey Littens! I got to thinking this weekend would anyone be interested in doing a buddy read of Poe‘s works? It wouldn‘t be too much of a commitment- maybe a story or poem each fortnight/month and a group discussion about it? Let me know if you would be interested and I‘ll get a schedule arranged if there‘s an appetite! #EagerforEdgar

Among my freakish habits is micro-writing. And no, I don‘t have Micrographia except by choice! Here‘s the first sentence in Poe‘s “The Fall of the House of Usher” on half a post-it note. All hail the king of macabre and commas!

I've never read manga before, but I think this was a great way to be introduced. Poe's stories are so delightfully creepy, and the illustrations in this were perfectly eerie and scary. I love that this form of comic might introduce more people to Poe's work. #arc ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

There's a special about Eddie Poe on PBS right now if anyone is home!! Very spooky 👻

Add this to my bucket list!

Just because we enjoy literary humor😍😍😍!

Just as I was drawn into a story it ended. #1001books

Spending the afternoon with a some Poe.
