One of my intentions for 2024 was to do more re-reading, and now in mid(late) February, I've finally started one.
I read this back in 2018. I don't remember much except feeling confused. 🙃 It's Wynne Jones's retelling of Tam Lin, a fairy tale I apparently am drawn to.

It‘s been years since I read this one but the dark fae or scary #Fairies 😉 still come to mind. I remember liking the fairytale meets dark academia vibe. 🥀🧚
🥀 I forbid ye maidens all / who let fly their lovely hair / to go down to Carterhaugh / for young Tam Lin is there 🥀
I'm hoping at some point I will irritate someone enough they'll tell me how to make the covers tilt. 😂 #ThingsInCommon
A reread for me and I still love it so much. I particularly love having taken the time to reread a chunkster and not think about the number of books I might have been reading in that time. Quality over quantity for the win!
pickAn entertaining book with many layered characters and an interesting plot. #Bookspin #February @TheAromaofBooks
pickMy love & appreciation for this re-telling of the Scottish ballad Tam Lin set at a Midwestern liberal arts college in the 1970s deepens each time I re-read it. If you ever romanticize/feel nostalgia for the university life, this book is for you! It describes a lost & rarified version of the life of an English major. A meaty, magical read, perfect for autumn! Expect I'll get a craving to read it again in a few years! #192025 @Librarybelle
Grey October day and I've dug out an old comfort read. (Also look at my gorgeous rust-coloured mums that *just* bloomed and will probably be zapped by frost next week.)
