Happy Monday! What are you up to today?
I‘m working on a new writing project that I hope to finish up before the start of the year. I‘m also hoping to finish up Salt & Broom. I‘ve really enjoyed my time reading it but it‘s time to move on to something new.

“Fairies were notoriously difficult to understand. The fact that this one was also a cat-well, that only complicated matters”
What are you reading today? I‘m absolutely loving Salt & Broom. I‘m also a fan of the fact that it‘s finally starting to look like fall in Alabama.

This was a perfect gothic story for the October season. It weaves together elements of Jack the Ripper, Mary Reilly (movie), Jane Eyre, and Frankenstein. It was such a good story; I flew through the whole book in one day. I wished it was longer.

There was no possibility of taking a walk that day. We had been wandering, indeed, in the leafless shrubbery an hour in the morning; but since dinner (Mrs. Reed, when there was no company, dined early) the cold winter wind had brought with it clouds so sombre, and a rain so penetrating, that further out-door exercise was now out of the question.

Clockwork Orange and To Kill a Mockingbird.
Tagging anyone who hasn't yet tortured themselves with this list. #tlt you can find the list in @dabbe 's post.

a different take on the classic Jane Eyre story.
As a fan of the original, I wanted to give this a go. It's interesting and funny at times. I personally prefer Jane on the original than this. She doesnt seem quite as strong. The plot is clever and a fun more supernatural twist on the classic. The ending was good if a little strange at the end but tied it off well. If I'm honest though I still prefer the original. 3*
