📍title inspired by @erintripsey's lists Audiobooks narrated by Brighton, England's Simon Vance! I'm a fan of his narration of Bram Stoker's Dracula and wanted to compile a list of more books narrated by him. He has a smooth English accent, lighter tone for feminine characters, and distinct variations with other UK/European accents.

Fun Fact: He's been an audiobook narrator since age 6, when he did a reading of Winnie the Pooh by A. A. Milne!

The list of books which are science fiction but not exactly.

The "science" part is not that important. Technology, space ships or how to pursue the time travel - obsolete. Truly important are the questions about the human condition.

Hopefully, I'll expand it with time.

Open for recommendations😊

Behold: yet another of my 2 a.m. deep dives - this time into epistolary literature! The list starts with some of the earliest examples of the form and follows it into the present day, from stories told through letters and diaries to those built from emails, texts, transcripts, and other documents. Whether you’re a longtime fan or completely new to this genre, what interests you most about it?

(A quick note: I put this list together using Wikipedia, blog posts, and Reddit threads. I did my best to keep everything in chronological order, but a few mistakes may have slipped through - it was 2 a.m., after all. If you have any suggestions on what else I should add, I’d love to hear it!)

Yes, the movies are great. Yes, you already know how it ends. And yes—it’s still 100% worth reading anyway
