The Secret Diaries Of Miss Anne Lister | 
pickShe's an interesting person, Miss Lister. I delighted in her rigorous study schedule and many brisk walks to the library! Less appealing was her snobbery (she's constantly disdaining Halifax society as vulgar) and there were more veal cutlets and gooseberry tarts than anyone might wish. I liked how HW italicises the parts AL wrote in her "crypt-hand": the ladies, of course, but amongst other things her evident unease (and trouble) over her dress.
pickIf you love 19th century diaries or are a fan of HBO's Gentleman Jack, then I would recommend this. Now I just need to find a good biography about Anne.
Due to my binging and loving Gentleman Jack on HBO, I‘ve started reading Anne Lister‘s diaries. It is so interesting how she lived her life. I am completely fascinated. If you have not seen Gentleman Jack, I highly recommend it. ❤️📚🎥🤓👩❤️💋👩
Work set aside for the night, time to start Gentleman Jack with @brandybear22 😊 We‘re already loving the not-quite-fourth-wall-breaking line deliveries.
Anyone else watching Gentleman Jack? 😍 #queerbooks
