I love getting to spend time with my nephew and since he started school I don’t see him as much but man every time I do I wind up sick. It’s as though sometimes when he’s hanging off me I can actually see the germs.
I think there’s something worse about summer colds. It’s like the whole world is so damned bright and you just want to crawl under the covers.
So I participated in Classicsathon this month which was run by Lucy the Reader on Youtube and Twitter and amazingly enough I followed and finished a TBR!
I really enjoyed the reading as well!
Me: I’m not really a classics reader. They just don’t do anything for me, you know?
(Actually reads the books.)
Me: These are so good! Why don’t I read more classics?
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
By: L. Frank Baum
I decided to read this one for the Classicsathon being run by Lucy the Reader this month. I kind of have a strange relationship with Oz as the movie scared me as a child. Or at least what I remember about the movie.
I mean girl gets sucked up into tornado, dropped in strange lands, commits homicide by house, meets a talking Scarecrow and Tin Man (I like the lion). Girl is hunted by a witch for shoes that she can’t take off her feet and she just really, really wants to go home. What’s not scary about that?
Turns out the book messed with my head in other ways…
