When I finished Rebecca last December I didn’t really care for it, but in the months since it’s stuck with me. I don’t know exactly what’s changed, but I think I’m much fonder of it with the benefit of hindsight. Honestly, I think it’d sing on a reread

That being said the brownface costume party is still crazy lmao

Every so often I come across a book that is truely horrific and this is one of them. Like literally feel the terror coming across the page. This is a horror novel 🙌🏽

A PJ book where a god is the main character?! I'm absolutely loving this already

I hope nobody has done this already 👀

I made a Letterboxd list with all of the movie adaptations of the books in this quest because I wanted to know how many I actually watched. Thought I‘d share in case anyone else here is, like me, about as insufferable about movies as they are about books 🎥

Funnily enough, Letterboxd is telling me I watched 28 of the movies, which is exactly one less than I read books. A complete coincidence, considering I a) definitely don’t have every movie I ever watched logged and b) most of them aren’t even ones where I read the book. I‘ll still call this double platinum 🙂‍↕️

My system for selecting movies was essentially copying the book title into Letterboxd and clicking on the first result. If there are any mistakes or the adaptation is not The One Everyone Has Watched, let me know!

How can a book feel like the most gothic thing ever written, but also like a trip to the fairy realm?

I am so damned curious about what's really going on, if the cause of the Blackwood family's isolation is what they say it is, what are Charles' real intentions, what time period is this (the mix of gothic with modern references makes it amazingly weird). I must know!!

I haven’t read this book yet, but maybe I will. I just have one random remark because I was reading the “About” section. Her name is America Singer? Reallyyyyy? Like, what is this, AGT? I feel like that was a bad joke 😬 well I think that alone might’ve made me DNF it, but at least I know what I would be getting into now, so I can mentally prepare myself.
