I thought an annotated version of Wuthering Heights while I listened to the audiobook would be fun, but the InterLibrary Loan arrived a week late. Still, I am enjoying the pictures, dipping in and out to read the notes. It is academic and assumes I know way more than I do about the Brontës. ?
I ended up LOVING this story but in the middle? I was thinking that if I hadn‘t already had an overflowing adoration for the series, I wouldn‘t find it as heartwarming. Weird. So, never mind! IF you are “INTO IT” then this is fabulous- especially because Olive and Lucy meet! Totally delightful, full circle, so many connections connect 😆
I was in tears near the end and took a pause to text a friend to make sure she was a Strout fan. Yes! 👇
Hey - only reading to satisfy a reading challenge category! Yeah, the titles make me giggle as much as offends my sensibilities #sigh

Tbh, the NYPG is pretty awful; TW for assault and another TW for women who think such behavior is sexy. PB is better so far but I‘m not sure you should trust me on that. #noExcuses
Put this on library hold months ago - maybe I read a terrific review here? Was it on the #ToB_LongList? I admit, I was not fond of whiny broken-hearted Andy for the first quarter of the book, so I decided to read the ending (helped by someone who said we hear HER side of the story). Doing so entertained a conversation in my head of this book with both Liars and The Book of George.

LOVED this! 🥰 Of course, I would! THIS did not disappoint. Loved the characters, appreciated the themes, overflowing with pie goodness, hit all the buttons this pie-baker needs in a cozy mystery #FoundFamily story. #Mar2025 Book21 #ReadICT Challenge COMPLETE 🏆 #BlueberryLimePie
I am glad to cross this off my list. And I am not yet done with my experience: I have the Annotated version coming through my library‘s ILL and I am hoping I can talk my husband into watching one of the movies. 🎥 Please recommend a version!

Just started a reread of this when 3 books came off hold at the same time. 😐 #sigh
Image is a cut out for some kind of snowflake?! I forget. Colors match the book cover 🤣
