@Bookworm54 , you are a Litsy Stalker extraordinaire! Historic crime, pirates, Egyptology, tea ... the gifts are so ME that it's a bit scary. I can't wait to page through the Ripper tome with a cup of this festive tea and I'm touched that you chose one of your favourite YA novels for me to try out. The little pharaoh bookmark?! I'm in love. Thank you so much for all the work you did to make this a truly wonderful #SecretSantaGoesPostal for me. 😘

The Big Book of Jack the Ripper | Otto Penzler

Just got back from B&N with this BEAUTY. It's a new Otto Pensler collection. I want all his anthologies. When I studied in London in law school I lived in Jack's old neighborhood in East London—tons of street art & lore there dedicated to him. I've always been intrigued but seeing his old haunts & murder sites made me obsessed. Can't wait. 🔪🔪

The wine is great too. I recommend it if you can grab some in the states! 🍷

BethFishReads Nice! 8y

BookishFeminist @Peterdamien You do! There's so much awesomeness in here. Even the autopsy reports and letters! I swear I'm not a murderer for being excited about this but it's a super cool anthology. 🔪💀 8y

BookishFeminist @LeahBergen @BethFishReads It's shaping up to be a great night so far! 8y

BookishFeminist @Stephanie-Anne Me too! I am all of the time but especially in October it becomes a full-time obsession. 👻🕸🍂🍁💀 8y

ValerieAndBooks I have his Big Book of Ghost Stories anthology! Most are so scary that I can only handle a few each Halloween 😱! I wonder if he has a theory on who the real Jack the Ripper was? 8y

BookishFeminist @MrBook Meh I don't do pairings, I just drink. 🍷🍷🍷 8y

BookishFeminist @ValerieAndBooks I really want that one!! And yes I wonder! It's so speculated. There's a lot of nonfiction & true crime in here too, I wonder if I'll develop theories of my own. 🤔 8y

BookishFeminist @PatriciaU @readingnatalie @Clare-Dragonfly Yes you guys do need this book! It's so great! 🔪 8y
