#ShaksepeareReadalong

The Two Gentlemen of Verona | William Shakespeare

Pickpick

I listened to Act IV last night and then went ahead and finished the play. I enjoyed this one, but I couldn‘t help but be a bit disappointed in the ending. I would have liked some of the happy ending with Proteus also getting what he deserved, but of course that was not to be.

I‘ve also been participating in this readalong for 2 years now and love seeing the increase in post-its for plays read.

My 2020: A Beautiful Year! | Hifish Notebooks

I‘m still playing around with different ways to look at my reading stats for the year, so I decided to make a bar graph of original publication date this year. I find both the quantity of new books and those few much older ones interesting. You can definitely see the influence of the #ShaksepeareReadalong in those orange and yellow boxes.

Daisey @jenniferw88 Lol! I know what you mean. I‘ve been considering how to do this for a while because I find the dot plot available in Goodreads interesting but not really clear. 3y
Daisey @squirrelbrain @inthegreensandblues The two BCE ones were listening to Emily Wilson‘s newer translation of The Odyssey and reading Aesop‘s Fables. 3y
squirrelbrain Oops I only saw one of them, but at least I guessed it might be The Odyssey! 3y
BayouGirl85 That‘s interesting. I may need to see how my 2020 reads look. 3y
Lcsmcat This is cool. Did you create the spreadsheet or find it somewhere? 3y
Daisey @BayouGirl85 Thanks! It is another interesting perspective! 3y
Daisey @Lcsmcat I created my own spreadsheet after considering a few others. There may very well be a simpler way to make this graph, but I copied and pasted my column info for each month and color coded with conditional formatting. 3y
Chrissyreadit Your graph is very satisfying to look at. So much information! 3y
TCLinrow This is really cool! I might give this a try 🤔😁 3y
Kenyazero What a fun stats graphic! 3y
Daisey @Chrissyreadit @TCLinrow @Kenyazero Thank you all! It‘s definitely a method I will be using again. 3y
JazzFeathers Lovely idea 😍 3y
