"No live organism can continue for long to exist sanely under conditions of absolute reality; even larks and katydids are supposed, by some, to dream." What a poignant, chilling #firstline to my #booktober choice, the Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson!! #reading #quote #horror ?⚜️
I went to my college library to pick up Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House after I saw a post about it on here and wanted to read it for #booktober !! They also had #bookmarks from librariestransform .org, so naturally I had to snap up one of each kind! #reading #horror #genre ☠️🌌🎃
Showing off my main #bookmark ! Got this HANDY little thing at my vice store, Barnes & Noble. 👉🏼 I love this concept because in a text as long and winding as the Divine Comedy, finding your place after a rude interruption is worth every penny. Happy #booktober everyone! 🎃🔮🌙📚 #classics #halloween #barnesandnoble
MY DOG DECIDED SHE LIKED THIS BOOK AS MUCH AS I DO. #dogsoflitsy. 😭 #classics #classicsarekillingme #dante #divinecomedy #dogshaming
"It is the accursed inventions of this century that are ruining everything....it is the end of the world drawing nigh." Apparently, the older generations have *always* blamed new technology, including..... the printing press! Ruining the youth! ?? #victorhugo #thehunchbackofnotredame #hunchbackofnotredame #classics #classicsarekillingme
a rare moment of idyllic peace in the Aenid, right before the tragic deaths of Nisus and Euryalus. #classics #classicsarekillingme #theaenid #virgil
