⭐️⭐️⭐️ My first @SerialReader in too long. I like the small bites format. It always takes me some time to adjust to Poe‘s language/style; I enjoyed seeing the mystery unfold to its unexpected conclusion.

Forgot to take a pic, but I watched Saw for the first time last night as a check off my horror movie list for the month. Also wrapped up the night reading Murders in the Rue Morgue. Having a good time for #teamharkness and #scarathon2020 / #screamthon.

Vier Geschichten, jede anders, jede besonders. Besonders die Dupin-Geschichten haben mir gut gefallen. Gibt demnächst bestimmt nochmal was zu lesen. 😍

Four stories, all different ,all special. I liked the Dupin stories very much. Someday I will read another Poe. 😍

vivastory Some of the Dupin stories are really bizarre, also surprisingly violent 8y
Sarah83 @vivastory These ones were only curios. I liked them very much, because as the epilogue says they remind me of Sherlock. 😂 8y
Louise Poe habe ich noch nicht auf Deutsch gelesen. Vielleicht probiere ich das mal! 🎩 8y

TheLondonBookworm I'm a big fan of the Poe man! Read some of his stories in graphic novel format the other day and it actually translates really well 8y
Sarah83 @Louise Mach das mal. 🙄 die Übersetzung ist wirklich ganz gut. 🖒 8y
Sarah83 @TheLondonBookworm It was my first time with Poe but definitely not the last time 😄 8y

Bücher waren freilich sein einziger Luxus, und in Paris sind diese leicht zu bekommen. 😍📚

Books were certainly his only extravagance, and in Paris easy to get. 😍📚

Der Sonntag ist gerettet. 😂 Weiter geht es mit #LitsyAtoZ. 😉 Habe noch nichts von Poe gelesen, wie findet ihr ihn?

Sunday is saved. 😂 #LitsyAtoZ is going on. 😉 I haven't already read something of Poe, how do you like him?

Maike Ich habe bisher 2-3 Kurzgeschichten gelesen und fand sie sehr skurril, aber auch ein wenig schaurig. Habe irgendwo noch ein Gedichtband herumstehen, was ich darin bisher gelesen habe ist allerdings großartig! (edited) 8y
Sarah83 @Maike Ich bin sehr gespannt, es sind die Geschichten um Arsene Lupin. 😉 Ich hoffe, sie sind so ähnlich wie #SherlockHolmes. 😍 8y
tricours I read one collection of his stories a couple of years ago, and I remember being a bit disappointed, I think primarily with the endings... 8y

Sarah83 @tricours I hope I will not be disappointed. The latest books I read weren't as good as I hoped. 😐 8y
Buechersuechtling @Sarah83 Ich hab von Poe auch noch nichts gelesen. Von daher finde ich es total lieb von dir, dass du als "filternder Testballon" ? fungierst. ?? 8y
Sarah83 @Buechersuechtling Ich werde berichten, wie es ist 😂😉 8y
Buechersuechtling @Sarah83 👍🏼 Danke‼️ 🙇🏽‍♀️ 8y
WanderingBookaneer Poe is one of those authors that when you hear about one of his stories you know exactly where you first read it. 8y

And some more class reading, this time a short story in this beautiful yet frightening collection of Poe's work. 👍
