Welcome to Litsy!

The first #Victober read of the year is done. I honestly had no memory of this but it is a nice little short story/novella. Very simple story that is probably inspired by Frankenstein in some aspects.

I'm so excited for #Victober this year, and I think I'll start with the tagged

#WhatsNewWednesday

I am reading!!!

I know, this shouldn't be news on this app. But it's been so hard to find time to read in the last period.
But I'm making a point to read more often now. I want to get back having conversation about books and authors on this app. I've missed it.

Excited to read this once I‘m done with Emma. A high school student who reads classics for fun, even after reading them for school?? Yes ma‘am.

I tried reading this when I was 8 years old. Now as an adult I'm hoping I understand it better. Just two paragraphs in and it already feels so much more relatable!

2✨Finished early, because I‘ve been done with it for a while. Whew! I was hoping for more storyline, but all I was really getting was facts on whaling. I‘m going to watch another review to see interpretations of others to try to have some idea of why I read what I did. Either way I read this classic so I can mark it off the bucket list and say: Yes, I did read that. 😬
