An enjoyable depiction of Mary Shelley's teenage life before she met Shelley and at the Italian lakes with Shelley and Byron. I did find parts repetitive at times.

I have read this slow. Tried to take some time each day, on the train, during lunch, in a quiet minute after dark, or hidden away in a bathroom-stall in the place where I work. This got to me. But in so many different ways. And I learned more than ever, that you read differently in every different (head-)space.
Thank you again for chosing this @JamieArc

Bullet journal is set up (so many bookish spreads! 😍) and my reader is equipped with some of my #AuldLangSpine reads. I had to use a lot of willpower not to start with the tagged book already. I am really looking forward to it! @JamieArc
Look at this fabulous blanket one of my students gave me for Christmas! My shrine grows ever bigger. Also, I believe your parcel arrived from Amazon, @dabbe . It is under my tree. 😘
This is the best book of modern poetry I‘ve ever read. The humanness and the love that I felt entangled with left me shattered in the best way possible. Seriously so so good.❤️💔♥️
FINALLY doing a bit of pleasure reading. Everything I‘ve been reading lately has been for research purposes. Gosh, I‘ve missed you guys! 🤗❤️📚📖
Icelandic author and feminist activist Thordis Elva recently recommended a podcast episode that featured an interview with poet Andrea Gibson. I listened, then headed out to buy myself some of her work.
Beautiful & affecting poetry ✨🥺❤️🙏
