Finally starting my October reread of Pamela Dean’s Tam Lin, and all I can say is thank goodness I didn’t read this book before going to college, not just cause I wouldn’t have understood it, but also because boy would I have had my expectations of college disappointed

#Janet Carter gets a boyfriend (sorta kinda) in like the first month???#Her classes are amazing and the passionate intellectualism of her and her classmates #I only found on my study abroad program at famous university #Why wasn’t I going to performances of Hamlet???#Anyway #reading the book now I’m able to love what it displays with (slightly less) possessive desperation #It does inspire me though as a scholar!#And it makes me wish I was a classics person #But y’all I am not #Although as Ophelia says we know what we are but know not what we may be #Yeehaw to that #Pamela dean #tam lin #Peace reads books
