It wasn't a bad read, but considering my age, it was very simple and the lessons taught are things I've already picked up in life naturally. An ok read (Mostly decided to read it bc I know a lot of ppl like it lol)

I've just received this lovely surprise package and am really touched. Thanks for the presents and the handwritten note. I love everything, but the bookmarks are probably my favourite. Thanks again for guiding us all through this incredible journey of reading the entire SH canon. I had a blast and I'm looking forward to the next chapters of our adventure! ❤️❤️❤️ #NoPlaceLikeHolmes #ForeverSherlocked @dabbe @Cuilin

dabbe Well, this just made my day! Thank YOU for always being there on our discussion days and for offering such keen insights. So glad we're continuing on with the pastiche reads, too! We are #foreversherlocked, aren't we? 💛🤎🧡 12h
Cuilin My Saturdays still feel strange without a Sherlock discussion. Thank you for all contributions. #Sherlocked #NoPlaceLikeHolmes 10h

Knowledge is power, and truth is knowledge; whoever, therefore, knowingly propagates a prejudice willfully saps the foundation of his country's strength...What have we to do with national prejudices? They are the inveterate diseases of old countries, contracted in rude and ignorant ages, when nations...looked beyond their their own boundaries with distrust and hostility.

(from the sketch English Writers on America)

I just picked up this new edition of Frankenstein at Barnes & Noble last night! Okay, if you are looking to purchase Frankenstein - this is the one to get! Not only does it have a cool cover and gorgeous page edges, but it also has the original introduction from Mary Shelley AND Polidori's and Byron's stories from the night Frankenstein was created! It's really awesome! 💕📚

MittenGirlPeach That sounds like the perfect edition! 1d
5feet.of.fury Ooooh fun! 1d

Brideshead Revisited | Evelyn Waugh

“So you're being divorced,“ said my father. “Isn't that rather unnecessary after you've been happy together all these years?“

“We weren't particularly happy, you know.“

“Weren't you? Were you not? I distinctly remember last Christmas seeing you together and thinking how happy you looked, and wondering why.“

After many, many months, I actually listened to an entire audiobook! Thank you Litsy friends for helping me past the initial yearlong reading slump hurdle. Scarlett Johansson's voicing of the different characters was unexpectedly entertaining. One can't go wrong with an outstanding audio version of a children's classic. #classics #children #YA
