Book of Outcasts (Wednesday) | Ally Russell, The Wednesday TV Show Writers

The second half of the 2nd season of Netflix Hit-Tv-Series WEDNESDAY premiered today (September 3rd 2025). Here‘s a quote from the series heroine herself: “I find social media to be a soul-sucking void of meaningless affirmation.“
Haven‘t yet headed back to Nevermore Academy. This book seems a good opportunity to get re-acquainted with Wednesday‘s world. :) #wednesday #wednesdaynetflix #timburton #joinedLitsy #firsteverlitsypost @Litsy

Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde | Robert Louis Stevenson

This was a really quick read. It was engaging and entertaining, so it seemed to go even faster. I guess I never knew this was just a short story, but it is definitely worth the time to read. I absolutely loved this!

GingerAntics I just realised that the second half of season 2 of Wednesday comes out on… Wednesday! 🤣 2mo

dabbe I loved teaching this one, too! 💛💜🧡 2mo

GingerAntics @dabbe this would have been so fun to read for a class. I wish my anti-hero prof had chosen this one instead of Frankenstein. 2mo

dabbe @GingerAntics You're taking a class on anti-heroes? Sign me up! The hero's quest is what I based my entire literature canon on! 🖤🤍🩶 2mo

Reading another Wednesday themed book… (not so) patiently waiting for Sept 3.

The Original Frankenstein | Mary Shelley

Okay, so they think all of this is most likely cancer instead of a side effect of the radiation she had a year ago. She‘s going to have a radiation treatment tomorrow. In about a week, she could start getting the strength back in her legs, but the neurological symptoms could stay like they are now. The goal is to get her to where she can come back home. It‘s not the best news, but there is some hope. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

GingerAntics Don‘t even get me started on how horribly Frankenstein treated his “monster.” I know the joke about Frankenstein not being the name of the monster, but I honestly think he was a monster to his creature. Had he treated this creature he had the hubris to make in the first place with a modicum of humanity, it wouldn‘t have been a monster at all and the book would have been so much shorter. #MaryShelley #Frankenstein #audiobook #Wednesday 2mo

Prairiegirl_reading I read with a number of years ago with my book club and also didn‘t enjoy it. One thing I remember about our discussion was one woman complaining about the doctor and “he had the vapours every five minutes.” I just always imagine him on a fainting couch. 🤣 2mo

GingerAntics @Prairiegirl_reading 🤣😂🤣 I love that! He really did have the vapours constantly! Like, dude, buck up! You get all these like dead body parts and you‘re fine, but then this thing you‘ve made expects you to show him some humanity and QUEUE THE VAPOURS!!! 🙄🤣😂🤣 2mo

IriDas Sorrý about the dx. I hope she can come home soon. And, yes, Dr Frankenstein is the real monster, which was the point of both versions. Bad parenting, bad science, they all lead to bad ends, I guess. :) 2mo

GingerAntics @IriDas I think that makes the confusion between Frankenstein and Frankenstein‘s monster funnier. 2mo

The Original Frankenstein | Mary Shelley

I have just discovered the joys of the Netflix show Wednesday this week… so now I am reading books that remind me of Wednesday!
#MaryShelley #Frankenstein #audiobook #Wednesday

GingerAntics I read this back in 2016 for a seminar on antiheroes… but these first few chapters… I don‘t remember them at all. 2mo

IriDas Is this the same version you read? There are two. She changed quite a bit of the first part with the second version. 2mo

GingerAntics @IriDas I genuinely don‘t remember this beginning part. I mostly remember the dog sled and the monster running along side, maybe chasing him. I just have this very vivid mental image of that part. 2mo

IriDas Oh, you mean the letters to the sister? 2mo

IriDas Here‘s a good article about the two versions: https://stanforddaily.com/2018/11/29/frankenstein-and-its-transformations/ But if it‘s about remembering the sledge, it might just be what stuck in your mind the most. I‘ve read it multiple times, both versions, and I can see that being something a person would keep over the letters. 😊 2mo

GingerAntics @IriDas I remember painting this very vivid imagine in my mind of it, and over time that‘s all that has remained. It does seem like he‘s writing letters to his sister… I think. This is the first time I‘ve listened this on audio, so I‘m thinking it hits a little different. 2mo

AnnCrystal Wednesday 👏🏼🤩👍🏼 the first season was too good! Hope to one day catch the second season 📺💝. The first season was filmed in Romania and the second was filmed in Ireland. Don't know why, but I found this to be interesting. 2mo

GingerAntics @AnnCrystal I did not know any of that! They released season 2 in two parts. 🙄 The second half drops 9/3, so I‘m trying SO HARD to hold off until then to watch any of season 2. 🫰🏻🫰🏻 (edited) 2mo

AnnCrystal @GingerAntics I would do that l as well...the first part probably has some kind of cliffhanger. Please review once you do watch 😉👌🏼📺💝. 2mo
