Persephone
Persephone | Kitty Thomas
10 posts | 2 read | 4 to read
When Persephone was born, Zeus received a troubling prophecy. Some day his beautiful innocent daughter would be taken captive by Hades, the dark god of the underworld. Determined to protect her, her father hid her away in the human world where she would be shielded from her fate. Hades learned of this betrayal nine centuries ago. Hes been searching for his destined queen ever since. And when he finds her, no power on earth or below it will stop him. He will take her. He will corrupt her. And Zeus will suffer for daring to keep her from him.

I just made an order from Persephone for myself, wrapped (😂), for my 40th birthday, and I‘m just going to sneak it onto the the mantle because I want a book for my birthday and I know that ain‘t going to happen from my family! Lolololol!! 🤞🏻 it gets here in time!

Megabooks @Shamzi 👍🏻👍🏻 sometimes families just don‘t get it! 5y
Scochrane26 I wish everyone would just realize all I want for gifts is books or related items. 5y
Megabooks @Scochrane26 right?!? Books, gift cards for books, bookish tees and mugs, bookmarks, booksleeves...come on people!! 5y
Megabooks @Scochrane26 I will say the bff got me a kindle paperwhite as a combo Christmas/birthday present, which does count. 👍🏻 that‘s why she‘s the BFF!! 😁😁 5y
Geenie ❤️ 5y
Megabooks @Yoshi-and-a-book 😁🤗 5y
Scochrane26 @megabooks My sister does pretty well—she usually gets me HP stuff & this year got me an awesome mister Rogers shirt. And my parents usually buy us one book. But, some years they waste $ on stuff I don‘t use. 5y
JacqMac I do this, too. You would think people would know me by now. Lol 5y
Megabooks @Scochrane26 that‘s good about your sister! I hate getting “business clothes” because I‘m not working now, but boy does my mom like to buy the for me! 😂😂 5y
Megabooks @JacqMac exactly! I‘ve been a heavy reader since I graduated vet school. I get amazon gift cards now and then, which are nice, but sometimes I just want a wrapped book! I hadn‘t gotten any until I joined litsy, made some wonderful friends, and did some swaps too! Thank goodness for litsy!! 5y
Megabooks @Cinfhen when is your birthday? I think it‘s in June, and I may have it in my calendar, but I‘m not sure. 5y
Cinfhen Oh, good to know 😘yes, my birthday is the end of June (29th) 5y
Megabooks @Cinfhen I‘m going to put it in my calendar! 😘 5y
zuzia March 11 is my birthday as well! Happy early birthday to you! :) 5y

I hope our family doesn‘t annoy everyone with our love of the Persephone book store! I really need to go back because I feel like I needed more time there.

Congratulations on your milestone!

vivastory It looks amazing! 7y
Mdargusch I read and reread the catalog before going and highlighted my choices. Otherwise it can be very overwhelming @saresmoore and @Redy2trvl and @vivastory (edited) 7y
vivastory I think I'd have a similar strategy, but I'd also reserve a portion of my budget for browsing 7y
laurieluna I need to go here 😍 7y
emilyhaldi If we annoy them it‘s probably for other reasons 😆 7y
Reviewsbylola We‘re pretty annoying so I agree with @emilyhaldi 🤣🤣 7y

A package! From Persephone Books! For Mother's Day! The boys (daddy) did gooooood! 😄 partner is in the shower so I'm not sure if I should open it or not. Opinions below please! 😂
This is entirely due to @Wilkie too, I'm guessing it may be The Priory 😊

TrishB Open tomorrow? That looks lovely 💜 7y
Wilkie Such pretty wrapping. I love Persephone. 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Beautiful!! 💗💗I had to look at the calendar thinking I missed Mother‘s Day!!! 🤣😂 7y

I visited one place that I‘ve always wanted to go—Persephone Books! It was lovely and I decided to just go for it and get four books (I originally tried to limit myself to three). The only issue is I can‘t remember what Persephone books I already own. So hopefully I don‘t own doubles now. 😂

BethM Is there something special about their books? 7y
Reviewsbylola They‘re just so nice looking with the sleek gray covers and fun end papers with matching bookmarks. And they‘re fun to collect. But it‘s also cool how Persephone chooses to publish books by women or with strong female characters that have remained unpublished for a long time. @bethm 7y
UrsulaMonarch Neat! I'd been unaware of Persephone - great to learn about it, thanks!! 7y

tournevis That is fantastic. Their website is not mobile friendly at all, so I'll look in on them later today. 7y
BethM That's awesome! I've heard the name but never knew what was special. I'll have to check them out. 7y
Pamwurtzler That is awesome. And here I was wondering why all those books in your posts looked alike! 😂 7y

I've read one Kitty Thomas - Comfort Food - that was brilliantly written and made me very uncomfortable (kidnapping and rape). I couldn't put it down. I love the myth of Persephone and Hades, so I'm interested to see what Thomas does with it. Dark and twisted probably. I'll most likely read this next.
