I know I‘ve already posted my #HauntedShelf TBR but today I thought it was a good idea to put it all on one slide. So here we go. Revamped TBR post.

Sicilian Romance | Ann Radcliffe
post image
Pickpick

(1790) Ear-read during a long drive, this is Radcliffe's second novel and packed full of Gothic tropes: an exotic location (Sicily! Land of hot-blooded lovers!); a large sprawling mansion with decaying disused maybe-haunted rooms where mysterious lights appear; secret passages, family scandals, star-crossed love, and lots of fainting and almost-fainting and bursting into tears. It's a lot of muchness, but it was a welcome traveling companion

Ruthiella I‘ve only read The Mysteries of Udolpho, but the heroine in that one cries and faints in every chapter, it felt like. 😂😭 12mo
swynn @Ruthiella I haven't read Udolpho yet, but ... yeah ... 12mo

1. Go to work again - and only it it's just for a few days (been on sick leave for months again😓) and go to the cinema tomorrow with my boo (They're showing Donnie Darko again tomorrow for this one night).😊
2. Tagged.
3. Though... Hmmm. Think I'll go with gothic. Gothic lit is mostly well written and offers plenty of atmosphere, suspense and thrills without being too crass.

Mehso-so

3⭐️ this book belongs in the category of “ what in the hell did I just read?”. It was graphic and pretty gory and really gross. But it had the affect the author wanted it to have so there you go. #BookSpin #BookSpinBingo

What cracks me up is I started both these books yesterday. Maybe I have the gift 🔮… lol, but for real these are both pretty good so far. #BookSpinBingo #BookSpin #DoubleSpin

Thanks for the tag @Eggs
