Welcome to Litsy!

And were off! I'm planning mostly to listen to #HashtagBrigade Chapter a Day of Frankenstein. I do have a Kindle copy as well. Last time I read was back in 2018 when I joined IRL friend in reading books from the Great American Read. Looking forward to the hashtags and memes!

#BookSpinBingo number 2! I was trying to finish this one before #readathon started but I ended up staying with it after the start time. Really good audio. #screamathon #Scarathlon #TeamSlaughter #Wickedathon #Spookoween #OutstandingOctober

My first 4 reads for #BOOKED2020. One from each season.
5. Cover Crush - Murder She Knit (LOVE black cats, tea, cake, and knitting)
12. Animal on Cover - See What I have Done
15. YA by a PoC - Binti
20. Gothic Horror - Frankenstein (audio-book narrated by Dan Stevens)

Tonight was all about the mystery knit along that I should have finished 2 weeks ago. ? It's coming out pretty well considering I'm a newbie.
First I "watched" two 80's slasher movies while knitting then did some #audioknitting to Dan Stevens soothing voice.

#insomnia + #audioknitting = one cat hat

Boy, I really look exhausted.

🎧 I‘ve read/listened to this title 4 times in the past 10 yrs and *every time* I feel like I‘m reading the novel for the first time! It‘s weird how the story lends itself to so many different levels of interpretation. This time I was struck by the travelogue aspect: Interesting to see the different settings and trying to correlate them with the action, themes, and symbolism.

I ended up liking but not loving Dan Stevens‘ rather maudlin delivery.

🎧 Often wary of celebrity narrators, I will still give credit when due. I just started this audio from my backlog of audible titles and, Dan Stevens (Matthew Crawley in Downton Abbey) is doing a very nice job with this Classic horror story of man‘s yearning for connection, and his hubris.
