The Fiery Cross | Diana Gabaldon

Inspired by my current reading. Outlander is one of my all time favorite shows and nobody has better chemistry than Jamie & Claire. 😍

Electricity
Inevitability
Inescapable

(really wanted to do a haiku with just one word for each line — this is the result!)

The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows | John Koenig

looseleft:
adj. feeling a sense of loss upon finishing a good book, sensing the weight of the back cover locking away the lives of characters you‘ve gotten to know so well.

My ode to a book hangover — who knew there was an actual word for this? So cool. (Nothing makes me feel a book hangover more than when I finish my Harry Potter reread every year or two!)

Take me back to that
magical world within your
pages — I‘m adrift.

Green Eggs and Ham | Dr Seuss

Last night I had a dream that @basecampbooksandadventure, a wonderful indie bookstore, only sold Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss. You could pick a book of your choice and that was the book you bought. But when you exited the store every book you bought turned into Green Eggs and Ham.

TheBookgeekFrau 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I definitely triggered that dream 2h

The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows | John Koenig

énouement: the bittersweetness of having arrived here in the future, seeing how things turn out, but unable to tell your past self.

I‘m coming at this perspective wishing I could tell this to my younger self.

You won‘t hear me, but
they don‘t love you. And you are
so much more than them.

I Love Lucy: The Complete Picture History of the Most Popular TV Show Ever, Authorized by the Lucille Ball Estate | Michael McClay

When I‘m having a bad day, nothing cheers me up more than I Love Lucy. Laughter is the best medicine! (This also happens to be my favorite episode, L.A. At Last! with the gorgeous William Holden 😍)

On my darkest days,
Lucy is balm for my soul.
I laugh through the tears.

julieclair Lucy is the best! I think my favorite episode was the one where she and Ethel worked in the candy factory. 😳😂 1d

lil1inblue Laughter is the best medicine! And Lucy is some of the strongest there is. 😍 1d

dabbe I have the fondest memories of being home from college in the summer and eating lunch with my mom when she'd come home for her lunch break. ILL was on from 12-12:30, and we'd laugh and watch together. This episode is a fave (Ethel cutting Lucy's spaghetti is priceless). My all-time is the Vitameatavegamin episode. “Do you pop out at parties? Are you unpoopular?“ 🤣 Thanks for such a fun haiku. 🖤🐝🖤 1d

JenlovesJT47 @dabbe “Well are you??” 😅😅😅 that‘s my second favorite episode! I loved watching this with my grandma. And on Nick at Nite back in the day. Lucy is timeless. 💚💚💚 1d

JenlovesJT47 @BooksandCoffee4Me @AnnCrystal @TheSpineView @AmyG @Eggs @julieclair @lil1inblue Lucy never gets old! Some of my other favorites are Pioneer Women, The Diet, The Freezer, the one with Harpo Marx, Ethel‘s Home Town…so many great ones! 🤗♥️♥️♥️ 1d
