Welcome to Litsy!

This video is on one of the biggest reasons the new “Wuthering Heights” film probably won‘t be very good. Emerald Fennell‘s inability to or unwillingness to deal with class and race. https://youtu.be/9mdegALUYrE?si=ubcn0P9oMweUjMXJ

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.

Have y‘all done your literary duties and watched the trailer for the new Wuthering Heights adaptation? I know the novel is messed up in all kinds of ways, but this film looks UNHINGED. 😆

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!

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. 😆

“It‘s just a book”

and you‘re making just a movie 🙀
