so-soI‘ve never had any strong feelings about Oscar Wilde, so I went into this fictionalized tale in five acts without a lot of expectation. Other than the fancifully modern fifth act, the previous four felt well-researched, though I never really warmed to the opening acts. Constance‘s sections really dragged on for me. But I loved Vyvyan‘s section (with scene stealer Lady Brooke!) & Cyril‘s section was also strong. I wish Constance leapt off the page!
#CoverLove #Gray One of my favorite books and one of my favorite authors!

pickAn interesting text that deals little with the actual picture itself and more on the psychology of the human lust for pleasure without conscious.
I can‘t wait to discuss the book at club next week.
Water = Coffee. Coffee = Happiness. Water is essential to happiness.
Just finished listening to the tagged book. Very interesting read. They mentioned in the story about a book poisoning someone. So I thought, could this happen? I decided to come on here and ask all of u lovely littens. What do you think?
Thanks for the tag @Eggs 😺

I haven‘t seen that many plays or musicals in my life, but there were some that were especially memorable.
1. My college roommate was in a production of the tagged play.
2. I saw a cool production of Richard III with my sister at the Shakespeare Theatre Company.
3. In high school I was in the pit orchestra for Carousel, so I got to know it VERY well.

pickYes I do I have a Nightingale and a Rose from the Oscar Wilde short story - be prepared if you read it, it‘s devastating!
I also wanted Bagheera from the Jungle Book but ended up getting a regular leopard instead on my back. I wanted a regal protector character and the leopard seemed perfect.
I also want a squid from 20,000 leagues under the sea.
Maybe if people want I can post pictures of them!
