Mondays with Martin.
“Her pleasure in the walk must arise from the exercise and the day, from the view of the last smiles of the year upon the tawny leaves and withered hedges, and from repeating to herself some few of the thousand poetical descriptions extant of autumn--that season of peculiar and inexhaustible influence on the mind of taste and tenderness--that season which has drawn from every poet worthy of being read some attempt at description, or some lines of feeling.” #persuasion #janeausten
“I have dreamt in my life, dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas; they have gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the color of my mind.”
I haven’t had a minute to write my October suggestions down, but the theme this month is “guiding lights,” and the intention behind that is to read books about influential people. Here are some of my favorite biographies and memoirs. Anything on the list stand out to you? #bookstagtam #october #12monthsofbooks #amreading #biography #memoir #bonhoeffer #bossypants #americansniper #julieandrews
Even when it’s 90 degrees outside, it can still be Fall in your heart. 🧡😂🍁
Is it even October if I don’t share my favorite Anne-ism of all time? #october #fall #anneshirley #bookstagram
“Sleep that knits up the raveled sleave of care,
The death of each day’s life, sore labor’s bath,
Balm of hurt minds, great nature’s second course,
Chief nourisher in life’s feast.” 😴😴😴
Fitting quote, all things considered—last night I couldn’t sleep, so I found myself reading Macbeth at 2:00 am. Even after eight or nine times reading through this play, it never gets old. Can’t wait to teach it again in a few weeks! #shakespearesunday #macbeth #amreading
Starting to see some yellow leaves out my living room windows. Maybe I can hurry Fall along with some yellow books to match. 🌾🍂🌾
Fall Break Goal: finish 5️⃣ books. I’m already done with Lincoln in the Bardo and I’m about halfway through Station Eleven. We’ll see if I can make the other three happen over the next five days. What are you reading this week? 🍂🧡🍂
