1984 | George Orwell
post image

Old books usually hide a history behind the story.
Take this 1st edition 1984. Is that blood on the pages? I like to think so. The page that it's on is especially ominous. "You won't be reading that propaganda, Winston"

Emilie Autumn is one of my favorite steampunk artists. A multi talented Musician, Author and Actor. Here is her book, The Asylum for Wayward Victorian Girls, sitting on her old touring wheelchair "Wheelie"

I haven't been sleeping well for the last couple weeks. And what else are you gonna do at 2:30 in the morning, besides shop for books online?
I blew my book budget on this first edition but I'll justify it as an investment. 😁 It's one of the better physical copies I've seen, and I've been hunting for this for years.

akckitty Nice find! 5y
mjester @akckitty I know! I'd been looking for a perfect copy since 2002 😉 5y

@TheReadingMermaid Here you go. Not as good as thumbing through the book yourself, but still...

BeansPage That is fabulous. I love the artwork in this edition 😍😍😍 my addition is beautiful but it has no illustrations in it. I wish that it did. 5y

@TheReadingMermaid These are fun little Poe editions. You'd probably like them. What's your favorite Poe story? Mine is either The Black Cat or The Fall of the House of Usher.

BeansPage Oh I love those editions! Wish I could thumb through them. I'll tag you with a pic of mine.... 5y

The Shuddering | Ania Ahlborn

A couple years ago, I sent Ania Ahlborn a volume of Scary Stories with the original artwork. She sent me some treats in response. This is one of my most treasured books. Have a good weekend everyone. Stay Classy.

Some of my earliest and fondest memories of reading are from this show. Now I can't sleep and have the theme song stuck in my head.

Aloisi_tribe Have you listened to Levar Burton‘s podcast? It‘s like an adult version of Reading Rainbow. 5y
dariazeoli Yes! LeVar Burton is a huge reason I‘m a bookworm 5y

mjester @Aloisi_tribe I haven't heard the podcast but I'm excited just knowing it's out there. 😯 5y
mjester @dariazeoli Me too! Happy Friday. 5y
MStew "I can do anything ..its in a book so take a look reading rainbow..""?????? loved this show as a kid!!! 5y
mjester @meghan2714 And just like that, I have the song in my head again. 😄 I don't mind though, that's a rocking song. I loved that show too. I remember skipping school so I could catch the book reviews. 🤫 They seemed more important somehow... 5y
MStew @mjester the book reviews were the best lol I always checked them out at library after wacthing 5y
mjester @meghan2714 Me too, such a trusted source. 😀 5y

My Name is Mary Katherine Blackwood. I Am 18 years old, I live with my sister Constance. I've often thought that with any luck I could have been born a werewolf, because the two middle fingers on both hands are the same length, but I have had to be content with what I had. I dislike washing myself, dogs, and noise. I like my sister Constance and Richard Plantagenet, and Amanita phalloides, the death cap mushroom. Everyone else in my family is dead

BookNerd9906 Best opening line ever! 5y
mjester I agree. Though I had to shorten a few sentences to keep it within Litsy quote field. Possibly my favorite book of all time. 5y
mjester My O.C.D almost didn't allow me to post it without a period at the end. But I fought through for Shirley Jackson! 5y

jenreads7 @mjester Good call! I was pretty much done with social media, and then I found Litsy and decided to give it a try because it‘s full of fellow book lovers. I enjoy spending time here. Littens are some of the nicest, kindest, and most respectful people hanging out online. I‘m glad you joined us! 🥰 5y
mjester @jenniferajanes Totally agree. And I've yet to see poor grammar! Which is worth hanging around for. 5y
mjester @CoffeeNBooks Thank you. I'm happy to have joined. 5y
jenreads7 @mjester 😂 I hadn‘t thought about it, but you‘re right! 5y
RaimeyGallant Nice quote. And welcome to Litsy! #LitsyWelcomeWagon Some of us put together Litsy tips to help new Littens navigate the site. It's the link in my bio on my page in case you need it. Or if you prefer how-to videos, @chelleo put some together at the link in her bio. 5y
mjester @RaimeyGallant Thanks! I'll check out the link. 5y

Enjoying the 3rd in the Passage series. Also watching The Passage series on Fox. Always nice to put faces to the characters in the book.
Amy Bellafonte is a rock star.

BarbaraTheBibliophage I read the first book ages ago. Now that the series is out, I‘m going to pull the second and third off my shelves and give them a go! 5y
mjester Me too. I read The Passage in 2010 or something. I couldn't remember the characters that well but the T.V series is pulling everything together. 5y
BookwormAHN Welcome to Litsy 😺 5y
mjester @BookwormAHN What a pawfect greeting 😹 5y
mjester @BookNerd9906 When you look at the City of Mirrors cover does it look like there's always a reverse "R" somewhere in the title? Then upon further inspection you can't find it and everything looks normal. Maybe I've just been playing too much Tetris lately... 5y
BookNerd9906 Only when I hold it up to the mirror. 😘 5y
