[@SpenelliSpeaks]

Love Little Free Libraries! Best way to donate books!! East of Eden is the absolute best!! Best female villain!!

I try to keep a bag of books in my car in case I find a Little Free Library. It's always worth a stop to see what they have. Yes East of Eden has the best villain! I need to reread it soon.

Hey Lindsey 😊. The flowers are beautiful! I am not participating in Jane Austin July this year, bc I am still burnt out from last July 😅. I love Little Free libraries and think it is such a great way to donate ❤️

I might be overdoing the readathon this year but I'm on a roll. Haha Hopefully I don't get burned out. I just picked up Ivanhoe and I know very little about the time period so it's been a bit difficult to connect with.

Oh my goodness, I have never seen the Exorcist, and I never will. My parents took me to the theater to watch Carrie! And I had nightmares afterwards. I was so mad at them. Especially since my mother told me it was over, but then something happens at the very, very end! She saw it and that was actually one movie she would not let me watch. That's saying something. Delphiniums are so pretty. I don't think I knew their leaves looked like that. huh. Dahlia's are pretty too. Were they reasonably priced?

I ended up chickening out on the horror movie. They're really not for me even without the jump scares. I like heartwarming movies much more basically the antithesis of horror movies. I didn't pay attention to the prices at the nursery because I knew I wasn't going to buy anything. It was inspiring but overwhelming to think about since I don't know anything about plant care.

@@lindseyreads5450 I don't blame you. I grew up watching scary evil movies. I'd never watch them today. My brother watches them all the time and has weird stuff happen to him and his house. And then when he visits he brings them to our house and wants us to watch them. We don't and he doesn't understand. LOL

Wow that is scary! I'm glad he doesn't push them on you. I've always like the fall season but Halloween has never been a favorite. In fact, growing up my family never celebrated it.

How far into miss Julia is that? I haven’t read beyond the first even though I have 8 lol

[@lindseyreads5450]

I've finished the first 13 books in the Miss Julia series. That reminds me to read another one since I'm going to North Carolina next week for work! I wish it was in the pretty Asheville area, the setting of the series.

@@lindseyreads5450 How many are there!? I'm proud of you for reading so many!

[@lindseyreads5450]

I think there's around 20? I'm not sure if the series is complete or if there will be more.
