Thanks to the lovely book, Mythos, and to the even lovelier Stephen Fry for writing it, this is my #weirdwords pick for today! Link to the mythological origin/story: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lycaon_(king_of_Arcadia)
Enjoy! #weirdwordwednesday

I was fine putting marginalia in my textbooks, and maybe literature I was reading for school, but now? It‘s hard for me to write in books (maybe that‘s why #LPMBC wasn‘t my cup of tea 😂)! Anyway, such a pretty word, hope you all enjoy! Here‘s an article about weird medieval marginalia: https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/medieval-marginalia-books-doodles

mcctrish It‘s crazy how many years passed before I got over myself and wrote marginalia in my cookbooks 3w
Bookwomble Nope!🫸📝A lovely, mellifluous word, and ok in ancient grimoires, but otherwise, Nope! 😄 3w
lil1inblue I used to be against marginalia, but then I inherited some of my grandfather's books. I didn't get to know him well because he was sick after I was born and died when I was young. But I did get to know him through his marginalia. So now I write in all the books. 💖 3w

TheSpineView I love this word! 3w
dabbe When we used to have real textbooks in high school, I taught the kids to mark them up with post-it-notes because they couldn't write in them. The power of a post-it-note! 🤩 3w
Amiable Just can‘t do it! 😬 Although your experience is absolutely lovely, @lil1inblue ! (edited) 3w
BookmarkTavern I love writing in my books! 😅😅😅 Seeing my different notes in books I reread regularly, like Dracula, are so much fun! 3w
CBee @Bookwomble you just used another wonderful word - mellifluous!! 3w
CBee @lil1inblue that‘s so lovely ♥️♥️ 3w
CBee @dabbe post-it notes are the bomb. Couldn‘t live without em! 3w
CBee @BookmarkTavern that‘s cool! I don‘t know why it‘s such a weird thing for me 🤷‍♀️ 3w
BethM It makes me@think of our missing friends @BookishMarginalia and @WanderingBookaneer ❤️ 3w
CBee @BethM oh! I hope they‘re both doing well - any idea what‘s going on with them? 3w
BethM @CBee I‘m not sure they haven‘t posted in years. I check their pages every once in awhile. 3w
CBee @BethM 😢🤷‍♀️ 3w

Only 9 out of 100. There were a few authors I'd read, just not the listed book, and a few movie adaptations I've seen that could have boosted my score. Still, it included three of my favorite books of all time:

📘 Crime and Punishment
📕 The Spy Who Came In From the Cold
📗 The Long Good-Bye

dabbe Have you read THE BROTHERS KARAMAZOV? That book was torture for me. Should I give CRIME a go? Thanks for playing and sharing! 🖤🎃🖤 1mo
The_Penniless_Author @dabbe Yes! Dostoevsky was my first "favorite author" back in high school, so I've read nearly everything he's written. I would definitely recommend C&P. It's the most accessible of his books. At root, it's a psychological thriller, albeit with philosophical/religious overtone. 1mo
dabbe @The_Penniless_Author Now on the TBR! Thanks! 🤩 1mo
