The perfect new ornament. Let It Poe! ❄️
pickA compilation of selected stories, poems, letters, and critical writings, with an intro by the editor. Intro was very helpful for me as I didn't know anything about Poe. I enjoyed the stories and the critical pieces most, and I'm happy to have filled in another gap in my reading.
Using for #spookyread #booked2018
This is Poe arguing for Appalachia as a better name for the US. I find this fascinating, and I can't help but think of current news of different efforts to honour/reconcile with Indigenous people when I read his reasons. This piece is 1846...
If you're curious, his first and last points that got cut off my screenshot are that America is too general, and that Appalachia sounds pretty.
I signed up late yesterday for the #deweysreadathon so only fitting I am getting a late start. First up is (hopefully) finishing the tagged collection of Poe. With tea, of course. Adorably tiny Irish breakfast tea tin is from Ireland, a gift from my in-laws' recent trip. ☺
I have no goals for this #readathon, just seeing how much I get.
More catch up for #poetrychallenge2018
The poems section of this Poe collection is quite fitting for October. The leaves are getting pretty crispéd.
My first time reading Poe and I think I like the short stories better than the poems.
What a thoughtful and fun present I was given by my writing student. We‘ve been reading and writing about a lot of Edgar Allan Poe stories and poems the last few months which must have inspired the Poe finger puppet. It‘ll go along great with the Abraham Lincoln and Salvador Dali ones I already have. Love that purple velvet robe!

Dear #librariansoflitsy
For my adult summer reading bingo challenge, I need a book recommended by a librarian! Will one of you superheroes come to my aid?
My favorite author lately is Edgar Allan Poe. I've also been reading a lot of Neil Gaiman.
Thank you kindly,
Megara
I wouldn't exactly consider myself ready for the day, but at least I have Poe both in and on my purse. @outofprint
My "Poe-ka" dot tote bag from Out of Print came in the post today! My #birthday present to myself.

Couldn't deal without buying these.
I signed up for an OverDrive.com account with my library card and borrowed my first ebook - the Portable Edgar Allan Poe! I also am on the waitlist for quite a few Neil Gaiman ebooks.
For all my NYC Littens, is The Dead Poet pub worth going to? The menu sounds awesome, but if the restaurant is subpar, I don't want to waste my time.
"I am the descendent of a race whose imaginative and easily excitable temperament has at all times rendered them remarkable;" - William Wilson by Edgar Allen Poe
I had never actually read any Poe so I figured I'd try some before October is over. I started with The Tell-Tale Heart and next up is The Pit and the Pendulum, accompanied by Peanut Butter Fudge Crunch ice cream. 🍦🎃
Used book sale on Powell's website through Wednesday! I was going to back off on buying books, but how can I say no to this? 😂
#hauntedbooktober challenge 7: In memory of Edgar Allan Poe
"There is no exquisite beauty without some strangeness in the proportion"-Edgar Allan Poe
"I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity." Starting my October Poe tradition a little early because I'm feeling festive. #poe #bookcase #poepuppet #readmorebooks
