    I agree with you on Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, to me it is more about duality inside us.
    Seems like you had a pretty decent reading month!

    Hi, I'm one of the new followers that found your channel through that video you mentioned. I thought, anyone who loves Frankenstein most have good taste. Love hearing you telling about books, really inspiring. I'm impressed by how much you read! You must be a fast reader & obviously don't have Netflix. 😉 No reading tips from me, I have only read Swedish books recently, that's not been translated to English. Also, been reading mostly biographies. Anyway, just wanted to say Hi & thanks!

    I've only read 1 Grady Hendrix book which was the Southern Vampire one and loathed it, but I can't deny that the cover art on My Best Friend's Exorcism is some of the best I've seen.

    Hi, Jennifer! Just found your channel and looking forward to following your reading journey. 😊 What an interesting video this one is! So many different kinds of books!
    Glad you warned us off 'The Last Murder at the End of the World' - that was recommended by a friend, but it really doesn't sound like my cup of tea. ☺️
    The book of poetry sounds wonderful. Definitely picking up a couple copies of it - one for me and one for a gift!
    Thanks so much for sharing what you've been reading. ~ Kim

    !!! tell me the word that was in gideon the ninth, i HAVe to kno!! also i loved hearing u talk abt the well of loneliness... i like to think of it as a novel that is an 'and', in the sense that its absolutely a lesbian novel & it was written to be a lesbian novel by the author etc AND i also think its a trans novel too & altho i dont think u ~need to read stephen as trans, she can definitely be read that way very easily & gender & sexuality isnt always seperatable anyway! that being said it is a v sad book imo lol but super iconic lol
