The Belles | Dhonielle Clayton

If you ever get the chance to see a conversation between Dhonielle Clayton and Tomi Adeyemi, do it. They are funny, smart, and delightful. I wanted to read both their books SO MUCH after this panel! #ntbf18

BillBlume I think they were my favorite thing about the book fest. Walked out of there so mad I hadn‘t saved enough money to get a copy of The Belles. 7y

jmtrivera @BillBlume I think they were my favorite part too. I was only budgeted for one book yesterday, so I was lucky Children of Blood and Bone was sold out, or I would have had a difficult choice! 7y

BillBlume @jmtrivera I got there ridiculously early for the express purpose of getting my copy of Children of Blood and Bone. Blew though my money on two other books at the same time. If I‘d been thinking, I‘d have gotten the one and waited to spend the rest of my budgeted money. #hindsight 7y

jmtrivera @BillBlume Now you know for next year! 7y

Notebooks and journals - the places where my 5000 title TBR list lives. It started in 1986. The first notebook has been completed. The current one I'm working through (reading titles) was started (writing in) in 1998. 😬 I need to read faster!

Hamlet | William Shakespeare

"Who's there?"

Now that's a #greatfirstline. It introduces tension, sure, but it also sums up the play's great question: who are we? Is Hamlet a vengeful son? Crazy? An indecisive introvert? All of the above? And who's there watching the play, watching the characters figuring themselves out? Who, indeed, are you?

I'm posting this instead of my usual poetry sendoff--goodnight, sweet Littens!

EnidBiteEm This is my favourite Shakespearean play. 😱☠️👻 8y

Sue Ah Hamlet 💙💙💙 8y

CarolynOliver @RealLifeReading Thank you! 8y

CarolynOliver @EloisaJames That was my plan (I put 5 years into a PhD program & taught Shakespeare as a grad student), but then my son came along ... ("I'll write the dissertation while he naps!" Ha.). I do miss it! 8y

CarolynOliver @I-read-and-eat Thanks! 8y

CarolynOliver @EnidBiteEm Mine too! Our son is named after one of the characters. 8y

CarolynOliver @Sue Agreed! 8y

EloisaJames @CarolynOliver yeah, I wrote my diss in my sons first year and it was awful--so exhausting and I think it would have been far better to just enjoy my first baby! #hindsight 8y
