The Phantom of the Opera | Gaston Leroux

The Great Gatsby | F. Scott Fitzgerald

1. A few dollars and coins here and there but mostly I use my card. 🫣😅
2. I tagged The Great Gatsby. Gatsby believes that by acquiring riches, he will be able to woo/ win Daisy back. I‘d argue that wealth is part of Gatsby‘s downfall.

Pride and Prejudice | Jane Austen

Reading a bunch of plays for a play reading committee. Several of them are aggressively mediocre. Some are truly awful. Kate Hamill‘s brilliant adaptation of Pride and Prejudice is the shining star of this pile. If you are a theater person, get ahold of any adaptation by Kate Hamill. They‘re fresh. They‘re inventive. They are a dream for a great director and a group of talented actors.

Nicholas Nickleby | Charles Dickens

Does anyone else struggle with finishing a good classic book because you know it is good for you to read it? Why is this taking me forever????? I really liked it in the beginning but went on vacation and now I can't get back into it. Any suggestions from those of you who have read it? Help me, please!!! 😂

1. Yes, I do. Probably one of a few who do.

2. Yes, money affects this character enough to make a change in their behavior.

TheSpineView Excellent book choice. Thanks for playing! 2d

Thanks for the tag, @TheSpineView! 😍

1. I try to carry $20-40, just in case.
2. I think of wealth, I think of GATSBY. And yes, money is the downfall of it all. 💰

Play? @TheLudicReader @PageShifter @Deblovestoread

TheSpineView Agree with #2. People forgot that true wealth is not money but a state of mind. 2d

Thanks @TheSpineView for the #Two4Tuesday tag!🤗

1️⃣ Yes, I always carry some hidden cash “just in case” & small bills for tips & places like the library book store that only take cash.

2️⃣ Having just reread TGG last month, it‘s definitely a book where every character is affected by money. Old or new 💵shapes their love lives & relationships, social standing & overall perception of happiness.💰

Want to play along? Consider yourself tagged!🤗

TheSpineView Thanks for playing. There still are a few places were ypu have to have cash 2d
DebinHawaii @TheSpineView Absolutely! There‘s several mom & pop restaurants I go to that either only take cash or offer discounts for cash purchases too. Plus I keep some stashed at my house in case of storms/longer-term power outages, etc. 2d

After making it through the Battle of Waterloo (which tested my patience and nearly had me yelling MERDE on more than one occasion), I am back with Jean Valjean and eager to catch up with the schedule. #readlesmis
