“It is only a novel... or, in short, only some work in which the greatest powers of the mind are displayed, in which the most thorough knowledge of human nature, the happiest delineation of its varieties, the liveliest effusions of wit and humour, are conveyed to the world in the best-chosen language.” #JaneAusten
When I grow up I want to inherit a magic chest from my dead pirate husband, live in an upside-down house, and invite all the neighborhood kids over for cookies and stories just like Mrs. P-W. Who’s with me?

Book 🔟: The Lightning Thief. Let’s just say I am in a major mythology phase right now—I finished Edith Hamilton’s Mythology a few days ago and may or may not have some Sophocles gracing my nightstand right now. 🤓 I originally read the Percy Jackson books back in 2014 at the suggestion of my middle school students, and I was instantly hooked. It makes my teacher heart happy to see ancient myths brought to life for new audiences. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #percyjackson #mythology @rickriordan

Book 9️⃣ of 2020: Mythology by Edith Hamilton. I listened to this classic on @audible, and really enjoyed it! The way Hamilton summarizes and paraphrases classic source texts is engaging and informative. Plus it made me really crave some Percy Jackson! I have a feeling book 10 or 11 of this year may just be The Lightning Thief! #bookstagram #mythology #audible #amreading
“Eva wondered within herself what good the tiny Elves could do in this great place, but she soon learned, for the Fairy band went among the poor and friendless, bringing pleasant dreams to the sick and old, sweet, tender thoughts of love and gentleness to the young, strength to the weak, and patient cheerfulness to the poor and lonely.” #LouisaMayAlcott #Flowers #FlowerFables #LittleWomen
Hoppy Saturday!
