pickThis novel really drew me in! Lovely writing, slowly suspenseful, gothic undertones. I think I would read this one again at some point in the future.

August's #RandomClassic is Fahrenheit 451. l've never read this one and honestly know very little about it, so l am going in almost completely blind.
The book is divided into three parts, so rather than following a chapter a day, we'll be reading one part per week. Since the 1st is on a Thursday, I'll try to post discussion posts on August 8, 15, and 22.
Finally getting a start on re-reading this favorite for #KindredSpiritsBuddyRead—in this gorgeous edition with cover by Elly MacKay!
Last year, at a Christmas party, I got a calendar with Shakespearean insults as a white elephant gift. It's been amusing so far.

1. It's been my 'codename' since using it at Girl Scout camp.
2. Play solitaire
3. The last audio book ...I'm currently listening to The Count of Monte Cristo and The House in the Cerulean Sea which I had to get in Hoopla on audio because my ebook on Libby couldn't be renewed.

"Awake! for Morning in the Bowl of Night
Has flung the Stone that puts the Stars to Flight:
And Lo! the Hunter of the East has caught
The Sultan's Turret in a Noose of Light."
pickNew episode just posted! This week we discuss “The Black Spider“ by Jeremias Gotthelf. This little known book, reprinted by the fabulous people over at NYRB, packs quite a punch in little over 100 pages. Gotthelf writes a tale with a little bit of everything, from idyllic country sides, to a menacing black spider all within a Christian allegory that makes for a rewarding reading experience.
