#VirginiaBloomsberries January's #buddyread discussion thread.

📚 What did you think of the various writing styles between stories?
📚 Did you enjoy any particular stories? If so, why?
📚 Do you like the stream-of-consciousness style she uses?

All are welcome to join us. Please let me know if you wish to be added/removed from the taglist.

Next up - Jacob's Room https://litsy.com/p/c3lpd2JsbHJN

Librarybelle Still playing catchup, but please keep me on the tag list. I fell behind but want to read her works in order, so it‘ll be a bit before I‘m up with the group. 2d
Cuilin What I find interesting about Woolf‘s writing is that I really enjoy it while I‘m reading and two days later I forgotten the majority of what I‘ve read. I remember birds flying over a town. Oh and a group of women asking if men are worth the praise bestowed on them? 2d

TheBookHippie I prefer her short stories and stream of consciousness over her long ones. I read a few twice to soak them in. I printed out Monday or Tuesday for my collage journal. 2d
AllDebooks @Librarybelle please don't feel under pressure. It's a relaxed group. Enjoy them as and when you get to them. 😊 2d
AllDebooks @Cuilin that's true. 🤣 I did enjoy Kew Garden with the view pint of the flower bed. 2d
AllDebooks @TheBookHippie adding them to your journal is a good idea 💡 2d
TheBookHippie I didn‘t fully check this out but it appears to be our February book https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNAdq9NHTlw 2d
AllDebooks @TheBookHippie oh lovely, thank you for the link x 2d

As she experimented with memoir, biography, and novels that contained elements of each, [Woolf] noticed that the process by which events are converted into history is inevitably distorting, for the past acquires in the telling a shape and coherence that is absent from the present. It's an observation that she expressed sharply when she came to write of her brother's death...

I could hear the water lapping almost at my heels, a flood tide rushing to glut the river. It rises and it falls, that flood, and in time it will have the barbastrelle and the brown-eared bat; it will have the Oak Eggar and the Garden Tiger; it will have the peregrine and the clattering jacks.

A marriage is a private business, even for people who leave behind them such a vast litter of diaries, letters and third-party gossip. What occurs at its centre, what bonds maintain it, are not always visible, or even guessable, to the outsider's greedy eye. The sense that arises from this residue of words is of an abiding love, comprised in equal parts of affection and intellectual stimulation. My inviolable centre, Virginia called Leonard...
