In elementary (primary) school during second grade (year 2) I checked out the book “How to run a railroad” the entire school year. I kept renewing it. The following year in third grade (year 3) I was banned from the library. My mother quickly resolved the issue and was pissed at the school for trying to ban a student for wanting to read.
Looking back I was clearly in the wrong, but I thank her anyway.
I'm reading two different books from H.P. #Lovecraft: "A Confession of Unfaith" and "Philosophical Essays". But I found out that several essays appears in both books, which makes my reading easier. Fewer pages left to be read soon. Love it. #Reader#Reading#BookWorm#Books
My weekend reading in between all the getting stuff done will be a lovely re-read of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein.
Heaven knows I’ve seen every possible movie adaptation of this, since I’m a huge classic horror fan .
But it’s been decades since I’ve read the book!
I recently got a Barnes & Noble gift certificate for Mother’s Day from my son, so I bought myself some classics that I had wanted to have in my collection 📚🤎. #reading#bookstodon
After 2 weeks of testing, #reading, and making my own #handcrafted#3dprinted case. Today I'm reviewing the #kobo Clara BW and Clara Color #ereaders, and seeing if it's better than my existing Nia, and #kindle.
I wonder if property prices dropped in Brighton & Hove dropped after Peter James started writing his Roy Grace novels. It seems everyone is a serial killer, victim or career criminal who lives there. #books#reading#crimefiction
