My favourite, and I love the ambiguity over the interpretation (I rarely agree with historians when it comes to most topics on literature and poetry, and this time is no different) 🤍🤎.

One of my favorite gothic horrors received in the mail today, Folio Society‘s version of Frankenstein purchased as a late Christmas gift from my wife! This will have permanent home in my collection. ❤️
A poem to ponder today. @TheBookHippie
pickThis was a fun thriller. The writing style took some getting used to, but it worked well for this book. The book starts off kind of slow, but once Van Helsing arrives and gets down to business, the pace picks up. Van Helsing is definitely my favorite character. I also liked the Harkers and Quincey Morris. Renfield is quite memorable as well. I would recommend to anyone into gothic horror and vampires. Another classic crossed off the TBR!
Prompt 21: “vampire.”

“Catherine Earnshaw, may you not rest as long as I am living. You said I killed you haunt me then. The murdered do haunt their murderers. I believe--I know that ghosts have wandered the earth. Be with me always--take any form--drive me mad. Only do not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you! Oh, God! It is unutterable! I cannot live without my life! I cannot live without my soul!”
― Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights
pickThis masterpiece displays the relevance to modern day tech and materialism. Beware of man whom is motivated by selfish desires to “advance” the state of humanity as it could lead to the destruction of those he/she wished to advance. Maintain a moderate and healthy balance in life. An example that simplicity while being a good steward, having integrity and being respectful to your fellow man are undoubtedly undervalued in our current society.
