I have the very unusual pleasure of a whole day to myself at the camper. What am I to do??? 😲 I have some dark, seasonally appropriate reads for starters.

44F degrees at 9 am - I‘m not going out until it hits at least 55F.

Cathythoughts Enjoy. I‘m sure you‘ll think of something to do 😁 1mo
Ruthiella Enjoy your peace and quiet. 😌 1mo
squirrelbrain Lovely! 🥰 (Your camper is a lot bigger than ours! 😝) 1mo

Just saw this trailer at the movies… 😳🍿 Looks extra steamy!

thegirlwiththelibrarybag I haven‘t seen the trailer yet but I‘m really looking forward to it. Watching Saltburn at the cinema was an experience! 2mo
Karisa @thegirlwiththelibrarybag Oooh, I heard Saltburn was good. Might need to find it on streaming 😊 2mo
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @Karisa, my favourite part of it was hearing people realise what was happening/about to happen at slightly different times. 2mo
nanuska_153 I read an interview with the director and she was so dismissive about the critics for not being faithful to the book, she made a comment like: "wait until they see the moors don't even feature in the movie". Honestly, it's a pass for me, films are adaptations and not always faithful, but I won't give my time to someone that doesn't have respect for the book 2mo
Karisa @nanuska_153 I was wondering how close it would be to the original. I didn‘t realize it was Wuthering Heights until the very end of the movie trailer. It looked like more of an Outlander type movie. Wait, what…Wuthering Heights without a moor?! Maybe they‘ll call them Cathy and Cliff 😂 1mo

I‘m making progress in my IRL bookclub‘s September pick, and it‘s actually pretty good! Definitely not one I would‘ve picked up otherwise 😊 I did have to print off a character list since names are just thrown out all Willy-Nilly 🤣 (Green tabs on top are for quotes, the tabs down the side are my reading chunks so I don‘t get overwhelmed 😆)

The last few days have been tough, no doubt. Losing a pet is such a hard life event. But I'm slowly feeling better and looking for joy in time with #TomKitten and a highly anticipated new edition of a book I love to hate and hate to love. Maybe I'll do a January buddy read of this one; it's too sunny and lovely to dig into now, but seems the perfect thing for very grey days!

RaeLovesToRead Love you, Tom 💕 4mo
Chrissyreadit I‘m sorry. I know this is a hard time. 4mo
Tamra 😞 I‘m glad though you have another friend to love. 4mo

Tamra I love WH for all that it is and isn‘t. I‘m interested in this edition and would be happy to do a buddy read. (edited) 4mo
Ruthiella I feel that Tom Kitten looks suitably dramatic for the pic. Definitely going deep for his inner Heathcliff. ❤️ 🐈‍⬛ 4mo
Andrea313 @Chrissyreadit Thank you, that's so kind. 4mo
Andrea313 @RaeLovesToRead Tom loves all who love him, too! 🩷🖤 4mo
Andrea313 @Tamra Having my other little guy around has definitely been a comfort! And good to know about a January buddy read of WH- I'll see how things are shaping up as we get closer to the year's end. I've never quite loved it but have always appreciated the wild ride! 4mo
Andrea313 @Ruthiella Ha, yes! My drama king cat! But hopefully with 100% less twisted revenge plots...! 4mo

I picked up this book from the LFL a while ago, forgot about it, found it again during a bookcase cleanout, and read it in the midst of cleaning the bathroom. Cute illustrations, interesting twists on known stories, and several tales of trickery.

This is apparently part of a series, but I‘m skeptical that the author‘s name is really hole in one. 😆

Jari-chan Reading is the best way of cleaning 😁😁 5mo
Susanita @Jari-chan Yes! Scrub the tub, read a chapter, clean the sink, read a chapter, etc. 😀 5mo

Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn't.
-Mark Twain

In all these years of reading, I have a lot of books and quotes in my memory. Some of them are really remarkable and worth writing down somewhere and sharing with others.
