    Love Carmilla! I feel the same as you about The Halloween Tree. The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is the perfect spooky season read. Great update!

    I am not a classics girlie. So the fact that Carmella felt modern, I’m even more excited for it! Glad you enjoyed it! 💕💕

    I read Carmilla last year and really liked it!! I haven’t read Sleepy Hollow but, I do want to.
    I’m glad you reviewed The Halloween Tree. I didn’t realize it was a children’s book either. Lol

      @@Maeve_Ever_Books Carmilla’s pretty great. Sleepy Hollow’s nice and short so you’ll zip through it in an afternoon. Yeah, seems like I need to do my homework before I read Bradbury

    Carmilla is the bestest everrrr 😍 I recently named on of my Sims Ichabod Crane. Don't even know why other than spooky season.

      I cannot argue with that logic. In either statement.

    You're 46?! You look like you're in your early 30s. Those anti-aging Irish genes coming out and I love to see it 🤣

      30’s? Christ I wish. Stuff would hurt less.
      As I’ve said before, I attribute my youthful complexion to a strict regime of Terry Pratchett books and whiskey.
