Welcome to Litsy!

Visited Haworth a few days ago to finally see the moors and the Bronte parsonage. It was better than I could have hoped! (The Bronte museum was unfortunately closed - but that had the benefit of making the town nice and quiet!) We did a tour of the area with a Bronte expert and he read some beautiful excerpts to us as we stood in the relevant places 😍

I have the very unusual pleasure of a whole day to myself at the camper. What am I to do??? 😲 I have some dark, seasonally appropriate reads for starters.

44F degrees at 9 am - I‘m not going out until it hits at least 55F.

Just saw this trailer at the movies… 😳🍿 Looks extra steamy!

I‘m rereading Wuthering Heights to gear up for the 20th anniversary of Twilight next month. Also reading Sunrise of the Reaping and tossing in a lighthearted sweet romcom too for balance. Runaway Bride and Prejudice is by one of my fav sweet romance authors, Emma St. Clair.

I‘m making progress in my IRL bookclub‘s September pick, and it‘s actually pretty good! Definitely not one I would‘ve picked up otherwise 😊 I did have to print off a character list since names are just thrown out all Willy-Nilly 🤣 (Green tabs on top are for quotes, the tabs down the side are my reading chunks so I don‘t get overwhelmed 😆)

I picked up this book from the LFL a while ago, forgot about it, found it again during a bookcase cleanout, and read it in the midst of cleaning the bathroom. Cute illustrations, interesting twists on known stories, and several tales of trickery.

This is apparently part of a series, but I‘m skeptical that the author‘s name is really hole in one. 😆

Two come to mind:

Wuthering Heights and A Tale of Two Cities.

I just didn't appreciate them the first time. Too immature, I guess. I was in high school. I tried again when I was a young mother. Still, no. It was in my mid 40s when I finally understood the appeal.
