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

Omg….i am in heaven! I asked the local @amctheatres manager if I could have the movie poster. He called me today to say that he had a brand new one to give to me. I picked it up after work and can‘t wait to use it for my Jane Austen library display!
It truly is the little things in life that make it grand!

#tlt #threelistthursday I scored 52 that I can remember from this list (I inhaled a LOT of books as a kid/teenager!)
there are a few faves on it but I‘ll pick out Anne, P&P, and Little Women as those I have re read the most often.

Apparently based on Gainsborough, Lincolnshire, I am still with Maggie Tulliver and co. in the mid 19th century reading for #HashtagBrigade . The “real river” is the Trent and it is quite imposing looking. “Floss” sounds so sweet and gentle. But the Trent is known for its dramatic flooding that can even change the course of the river.

pickThis classic bears up under more than one reading. I had forgotten how utterly unlikable the main characters are. But it‘s a novel that you just can‘t put down. The story is so compelling and the ending is so satisfying. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
