Twelfth Night | William Shakespeare

My January #Roll100 picks. I think I'm going to start with the tagged book, as I think my Shakespeare knowledge is lacking. Maybe I should've started a Shakespeare book club instead of the one I currently run lol. #Roll100 @PuddleJumper

PuddleJumper I like reading the comedies 2d

Busting out those theatre student skills to revisit Lear before going back to Private Rites (one time I read 2-3 plays after a late night rehearsal 🙃)

To Be or Not To Be | Ryan North
post image

At the start of the last 4 years, I've taken a picture of my TBR shelf to track how it's changing over time. It's clearly expanding for one thing 🤔 And there is some overlap between years: even though it's not too much to read in a year, there's still e-books and others I read right away for challenges or readalongs. I try to read everything within 2 years, but Jim Crace's The Devil's Larder has remained for 3, so I'll have to get to it soon!

Ruthiella Neat! I also have books that carry over, some for ahem, longer than three years. 🙈 5d
TheBookHippie @Ruthiella I have some plus ten that seriously need looking at!! LOL 5d
sarahbarnes This is cool! Lots of great books in here. Idaho is so good. 5d

BarbaraBB Very interesting. And I loved Idaho too 5d
CarolynM What a great idea. I‘ve got too many TBR shelves to fit in one photo 😂 5d
Billypar @Ruthiella @TheBookHippie @CarolynM Part of my shelf that mostly has read books to give away also had unread books that I've sort of lost interest in. Call it a 'TBRS' shelf ('To Be Read...Someday' 😆) 5d
Billypar @sarahbarnes @BarbaraBB I don't remember specifics, but something about the Idaho reviews on Litsy told me it was one I'd enjoy - will hopefully find out sometime this year! 5d

I‘m just getting around to some thank you notes and wanted to say thank you @dabbe for this lovely holiday gift. I‘ve had it on my TBR and I‘m really looking forward to reading it. I have a whole Shakespeare shelf and this will be a wonderful addition. Thank you so much not just for this perfect gift but also for your friendship. 🤗 PS the candle smells divine.

Andrea313 What a beautiful gift! Popping in to say I hope you love the book- it was my favorite of my last year's reading. You have such a treat in front of you! 1w
dabbe Yay! I adore my bookmarks and LADY MAC book, too! (I hope I already posted about that! My memory ain't what is used to be! 😂) And what a perfect thought for today's #25Alive ... #friendship 🤗 🩶🖤🩶 1w
Cuilin @Andrea313 thank you 🙏 😊 1w

A Daughter of Fair Verona | Christina Dodd

Bailedbailed

This was disappointing. I was hoping for another fun murder mystery set in a continuation of a well-read world, like Mr Darcy & Miss Tilney. Unfortunately it did not live up to expectations. I guess I didn't like the writing style. Or the characters. Rosie starts off supposedly as a mature older girl who knows she's not interested in love but then immediately falls in love with a random man (like she'd been teasing her parents about) ⤵️

peanutnine proceeds to act like a vapid girl. The plot is also way too slow. At 32% and the guy finally died but no one seems in too much of a hurry to figure out who killed him. There's no sense of urgency even though everyone believes Rosie did it. Anyway this was my December #bookspin that I finally gave up on @TheAromaofBooks 1w
TheAromaofBooks At least it's off the list!! 1w

Got FAR too excited to see these Shakespeare Recording Society records at a library used book sale today- truly, like a kid in a candy store. We're talking Ian McKellen, Judi Dench, John Gielgud, Ian Holm, Claire Bloom, Eileen Atkins, Paul Scofield, Albert Finney, Peggy Ashcroft, Glenda Jackson, Edith Evans, and more. And for about 12 bucks! My winter evenings are set, good night and thank you. 🙌 #CurrentlyListening #Shakespeare
