Welcome to Litsy!

#poemaday

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Frankenstein is my favorite book ever! This book is one of the best biographies and just stuffed full of so many amazing facts about these kids who got together on a stormy night in Geneva! These young creatives gave us so much and were all tragically taken way too soon.

I adore this #Bookmory calendar visual of my monthly reads. Had another great month with some fantastic books. The tagged was my favourite read in September.

Every year, I set myself a reading theme for the year. It could be something I'm interested in or know nothing about. I've been doing this for around 12 years now & and I do find it very rewarding.
This year I've chosen poetry as it's not my strongest subject. So please, do throw any suggestions my way, poetry collections, biographies, textbooks, fiction. I'm pretty open to anything and everything.
TIA 😊

@Littlewolf1 Tysm for my #creepychristmas swap. You spoiled me. Not only do I love Frankenstein‘s monster but the color green 😍😍😍 good stalking! Absolute adore everything from the notebook to the monster Christmas ornament. Can‘t wait to dive into these two asap. Happy holidays.

Ty @teebe for hosting!!

It cracks me up that the tagged book was one of the ones chosen this month because I was originally supposed to read it in April during my sister‘s birthday month since she rec‘d it to me. And now it‘s my birthday month and the fates have spoken 😆⚡️ #BookSpin #DoubleSpin

This book was utterly enthralling.A Victorian thriller,it traces a fictionalized life of Mary Shelley,author of Frankenstein.A brilliant piece of historical detective work.The author‘s Notes explain the extensive historical research behind the novel & how she drew her conclusions.”Psychologically penetrating”,she paints riveting pictures of Shelley,Byron,Percy Shelley,her step sister Claire,the Godwins.She questions the deaths of Mary‘s children🔽

Finished reading the section due this Sunday for #sundaybuddyread - So enthralled with Silence for the Dead that I forgot & kept reading a little further before I realized it! Now starting tagged library book to fall asleep to. Just love libraries-discovered new authors today when I visited, this book being one of them.

I know I‘m late posting my list but I have not looked at the official numbers yet so I could put this up with virgin eyes lol 🙈 April is my sister‘s birthday month so I told her I would add a book she wanted me to read to my list. Sadly the almighty bingo spinner did not choose hers, so the tagged book will be one of my freebies. #BookSpin #DoubleSpin #BookSpinBingo
