Welcome to Litsy!

I didn't care for it. It was confusing and way over my head with the dialogue throughout the book.

Today is my recovery day from my COVID booster shot. A little #VforVendetta to remind me of a time when we only feared a dystopian future ruled by malevolent governments rather than the decline of the world by a global pandemic.

This was in 1988. Nineteen. Eighty. Eight. “Make Britain Great Again”.

"Remember, remember, the 5th of November, the gunpowder treason and plot. I can think of no reason why the gunpowder treason should ever be forgot."

It's that time of year again! ?️‍♀️❤

Just finished my #BookSpin for April: V for Vendetta and it was really really good. It was a recommendation in the foreword of one of the Sandman volumes and it didn't disappoint. A great story from start to end. To my shame I didn't know that Alan Moore also wrote The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and Watchmen so this will not be my last encounter with his writing. A definite pick!

Over all I think I prefer the movie to this one but it‘s still a fantastic story and I will always love the message it tells.

#Booked2021 - mustache on cover

Oof. I‘ve been in a huge slump the last couple of weeks. Dealing with more personal drama issues from someone I‘ve given too many second chances to. I am trying desperately to get back into my reading and I still have more #LitsyLove letters to send out. Plus I still need to mail that package to @Jadams1776 which I promise I will do Monday!

I thought a graphic novel would help unslump me but it hasn‘t yet...here‘s hoping!

#Watchmen was not bad either but I loved this one more. 🖤🎭

Popcorn, cherry ale, cute book lamp and a graphic novel — a perfect evening. 💕

Let me start by saying I LOVE the movie and saw it long before I read this. So I very much like the concepts behind this story. I was disappointed in the artwork of the graphic novel; it was kind of ugly and the colors were newspapery-muted. I was also disturbed that Evey is 16 years old...weird. There are a lot more auxiliary characters in the novel, and it felt winding and confusing.

The tarot prompt for today is the Death card, which deals with rebirth! I decided to go with the graphic novel V for Vendetta, since V experiences a complete and total rebirth as he sheds his old identity. He is no longer Prisoner 5, he is the vigilante V! Evie experiences a rebirth in the story as well!

This was probably obvious.
Author - Van Allsburg, Chris (as in Jumanji)

I just watched this movie for the first time the other night and it totally blew me away! I had to immediately get the graphic novel after that and I'm really excited to start it today. Even though it was written in the 80's it is SUPER relevant in today's world. #catsoflitsy #littenkitten #roxas

This is the last book I tried to read on May for #BookSpinBonanza but I didn't finish it. I hope I can complete it this month. I'm enjoying it so far. @TheAromaofBooks

This has been in my TBR for ages. Loved the film!

Oh my gosh. Grab a copy of this and get reading. This is one of those graphic novels that justifies the genre. This book is so quotable and so poignant.

I loved Watchmen. I thought V for Vendetta would be my favorite, but I‘m not sure. Let‘s see....☺️

I may use this one for #graphicnovel for #booked2019 challenge. I‘m not good with graphic novels and just don‘t get anything from them. It‘s a tie between this one and To Kill a Mockingbird at the moment.

This one is great, of course. Very different from the movie, but considering how different the times were when it was published vs when the movie came out & all the knowledge about nuclear weapons & their after effects that had been gained in that time, it‘s no wonder. I also loved that they kept chapters that were merely meant to serve as interludes in the book for completeness.

Trying to get out of this reading slump that not having time to read has put me in by reading some Alan Moore. I‘ve always wanted to read this graphic novel as I love the movie and I loved Watchmen, & I found it the other day on the Libby app. #graphicnovel #libbyapp #libbybyoverdrive #ipadreading #readingslump

Repost for @Billypar :
So excited to be co-hosting November's music photo challenge w @Cinfhen !
#NoFemmeber is about celebrating female musicians & female-fronted bands who're actively making music & awesome (imho). The playlist is on Spotify with the same name, so I hope you check it out & it stokes some feminist energy affronted by recent events in the news (if you're in the U.S. anyway!).
Looking forward to my first bookish DJ gig! 😎📚▶️🎶

#QuotsySept18 Day 26: V is also for #Vigilante, not just Vendetta.

They changed a lot of characters development in the movie, specially V and Evey (I prefer movie V). But most of the changes make sense.
I always think that the book is better, but in this case, it's a tie.

Damn. Alan Moore is one hell of a writer. This was written in the 80s yet the parallels to today...it‘s chilling. I watched the movie years ago and liked it but I always hesitated on reading the graphic novel. I‘m glad I finally did. The political and social commentary is still very relevant.

The illustrations- I found it difficult to decipher who was who in the panels so if their names weren‘t said, I wasn‘t always sure who was present.

1. Evidently Keith Urban never carries enough cash to buy coffee. 😂
2. V for Vendetta
3. The two succulents that are inside the house during the winter are now outside for the summer.
4. Social studies
5. All kinds of critters. Raccoons, Opossums, skunks, squirrels, groundhogs, coyotes, deer, snakes, a bunch of different birds, even the occasional bald eagle.

I enjoy a good graphic novel! They‘re fast paced. They‘re visually stunning. And they really allow authors and artists to collaborate in a unique manner of storytelling. Decided to download this guy after watching the movie the other night. Hopefully V‘s dialogue is just as alluding and alliterative as Hugo Weaving‘s portrayal.

Find it kind of disturbing how relevant this book--published in the 80s-- is to 2018

I think this is classified as a classic so I'm reading a classic!
