I‘m rereading Wuthering Heights to gear up for the 20th anniversary of Twilight next month. Also reading Sunrise of the Reaping and tossing in a lighthearted sweet romcom too for balance. Runaway Bride and Prejudice is by one of my fav sweet romance authors, Emma St. Clair.
I‘m making progress in my IRL bookclub‘s September pick, and it‘s actually pretty good! Definitely not one I would‘ve picked up otherwise 😊 I did have to print off a character list since names are just thrown out all Willy-Nilly 🤣 (Green tabs on top are for quotes, the tabs down the side are my reading chunks so I don‘t get overwhelmed 😆)
In a year of bittersweetness, this week has probably been the bittersweetest. Still, there is joy.
1. A lovely remembrance gift from a thoughtful Litten. @dabbe
2. A basil plant kit from the library, a prize for completing the adult summer reading challenge.
3. Mid-week evening Still Hour service.
4. Girls Night Out at the local shopping place.
5. My friend made me earrings for Girls Night Out at the local shopping place.

I picked up this book from the LFL a while ago, forgot about it, found it again during a bookcase cleanout, and read it in the midst of cleaning the bathroom. Cute illustrations, interesting twists on known stories, and several tales of trickery.
This is apparently part of a series, but I‘m skeptical that the author‘s name is really hole in one. 😆
In the Criterion collection. https://youtu.be/K15A83bYrKo?si=j8xBMg2GaE0hLIEX
“But Heathcliff, if I dare you now, will you venture? If you do, I'll keep you. I'll not lie there by myself; they may bury me twelve feet deep, and throw the church down over me; but I won't rest till you are with me...I never will!“
