Thanks to #RushAThon I have made an effort during the weekend & last few days of my holidays and read a ton (for me at least).

I read and finished A Stranger in the House by Shari Lapena which was also my #Doublespin for September;
a reread of Hamlet by Shakespeare (#Reread was my #Bookspin of June)
as well as the biggest achievement - I pushed through the last third and annotations of Jules Verne's 20000 Leagues under the Seas 😖
⤵️

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! Excellent work getting through 20,000 Leagues! I have such mixed feelings about that book! 😂 I did enjoy the Mysterious Island more, which is not a strict sequel but has several familiar faces! 14mo

Started this one today. We are reading it for our Yearly Read in the Goodreads Book Snails Book Group if you'd like to join us. I'm just now getting around to it. Found it on audiobook, with footnotes and all ✨✨

It (Eso) | Stephen King

"If you go exploring Mansion Derry, you'll find all sorts of things. Yes. You may be sorry later but you'll find them, and once a thing is found it can't be unfound, can it?"

• Honestly, I am not following everything too closely. Bright side, I did learn the meaning of "regicide" (the killing of a king). I always love learning new words •

Crinoline_Laphroaig So it that a we liked Anna Karenina or is that ironic? 4y
bibliobliss @Crinoline_Laphroaig I am reading "Anna Karenina" and really enjoying it. Much more than "War and Peace." 4y
Crinoline_Laphroaig @Readage I read Anna last winter. I'm the other way liking War and Peace more. But it's early days. 4y
bibliobliss @Crinoline_Laphroaig Yes...time will tell 4y

Anna Karenina | Leo Tolstoy

Part of my new years goals is to always have a piece of #classicliterature going. What do you think of my choice? It's my first Tolstoy so I think that's an appropriate "Hell Yeah" moment

Can someone please explain what a "fractalverse novel" is? I'm liking the story, just curious...

bookswithbec It's his new 'world/universe'. He stated in an interview that he is planning on writing a bunch in the universe! 4y
bibliobliss @bookswithbec Ok, thanks for the explanation!! 😉 4y
