October #wrapup #spookoween #31by31 #witchathon
Had so much during Litsy spooky time with all the marathons. I read 4 books, one of them was witchy, 2 comics, 1 children‘s picture book, and 1 middle grade fiction with over 32 hours of reading time for the month. Thank you to all the wonderful Littens for hosting these events @TEArificbooks @TheSpineView @Catsandbooks
I‘m at dinner with my husband and his friend. While they watch football, I‘ll read my book! And eat a piece of cake! #hyggehourreadathon
I finished my audio reread a few days ago, but this morning I revisited the postscript to more closely consider Garth‘s discussion of the way writers wrote about WWI and specifically its influence on Tolkien‘s work.
This quote emphasizes one of the key aspects of Tolkien‘s work that I love. Many of his characters are simple people who just keep going and make a difference in their own small ways.

I found this quote from Verlyn Flieger enlightening as it makes such an interesting comparison between a return from war and a return from Faerie.

This was so much fun. Thank you for hosting @PuddleJumper and @Emilymdxn for being a great team captain. My apologies for the dwindled posts, I have shingles. I have still been racking up the points tho'.
Finishing up with the tagged for my last read of October. #LetterX for #AtoZReadathon @Texreader
pickI've finally read this remarkable classic; a suitable read at this time of the year, as there is nothing scarier than war and it is all the more scarier that such horrors are still happening.
"What do they expect of us if a time ever comes when the war is over? Through the years our business has been killing;–it was our first calling in life. Our knowledge of life is limited to death. What will happen afterwards? And what shall come out of us?"

panPretty wordy but interesting because it is a true story and possibly relates to Pooh bear.
