#wtf how do i tag this sort of poem

[solomon-tozer]

Considering myself tagged by @twice-told-tales!

What book are you currently reading?

I've just finished All Quiet on the Western Front, so I'm trying to pick the next book... (Maybe I should finish Moby Dick, perhaps I'll start The Count of Monte Cristo.)

(more questions under teh cut!)

What do you usually wear?

I hardly ever go out, so usually a biiiiig cosy hoodie and sweats or trackies. House clothes. Anything comfy.

What's your favourite movie that you saw in theaters this year?

I haven't been to the theatre... I very much enjoyed AQOTWF (2022) (hence finally reading the book) and Emma (2020). The last movie I saw in the theatre was No Time To Die, which I did enjoy and that was my first time crying in a cinema... Grew up watching Bond movies with my dad so it was definitely the end of an era sort of thing (I couldn't remember the other Craig movies, just Casino Royale, so I was like 'huh what' but couldn't ask anyone wtf).

What's your star sign?

Leoooooo

Do you go by a name or nickname?

Nickname, derived from my name, but also not

How tall are you?

177cm... tiny.

Are you in a relationship? If not, who is your crush if you have one?

I'm not, no, and, besides a few celeb crushes, I don't have a crush either (the joys of being stuck in a house in a shitty rural place)

Did you grow up to become what you wanted to be when you were a child?

No. I wanted to be Pocahontas.

If you draw/write, or create in any way, what’s your favourite picture/favourite line/favourite etc. from something you created this year?

The poem I did, I think. I know it's not particularly good, but I like it. I also like the mountaineering fic, although it's better in my head. I wish I could livestream my thoughts sometimes.

Dogs or cats?

Cats!

What’s something you’re good at vs. something you’re bad at?

Good at remembering silly things about stuff, bad at remembering things about stuff. I live an interesting life. I either know something in very specific detail, or I know I once knew it.

Also very bad at standing up. Spectacularly bad at it, actually.

What’s something you would like to create content for?

Hmm... more fanfic for any fandom that would like my contribution? Would like to write some essays on things I like researching for academic type stuff. Mostly, though, I want to write porn that doesn't fit any of the Terror characters, so I'm not writing it, just thinking about it.

What’s something you’re currently obsessed with?

Still the Terror, I guess.

What’s something you were excited about that turned out to be disappointing this year?

University. My birthday. Bagels.

What’s a hidden talent of yours?

I don't think I have one? Unless hyperfixating on things and making useless spreadsheets counts.

Are you religious?

Nope! I mean, I wouldn't mind, but I haven't found anything.

What's something you wish to have at this moment?

I mean, money would be nice, a safe home away from abuse should be my answer... but what I really want right now is a romantic partner who will cuddle me and just... human contact. Please.

I, too, am tagging anyone who wants to do this!

this poem is so funny wtf.....comedye geniuse <3

Lawblr Book Club

Hello naughty children, it’s time for Nissa’s Opinions

Coming in RIGHT under the wire for October book club, but still. I have read the reboggles I could find on T’s tag (bc tumblr search is what it is), and now it’s my turn.

General Questions:

1 - What did you like best / least?

I liked the worldbuilding a lot - I want to know more about the Reaches and the Travelers and why everything is made of wood in Kolonya?? Least... we will get to lol

2 - Would you read more by this author?

mmmmmmmmmmaybe. Like I want to know wtf happened, but I’m also still pretty mad about the ending. We shall see.

3 (a) - If this story followed a different character’s POV, who would you pick and why?

tbh the last thing this book needs is more POVs

3 (b) - Did you like how the three different sister’s POV was used to push the narrative forward? Did it make your reading experience more or less enjoyable?

idk, it was a little slow for my tastes. I did like that the girls all had different perspectives, but I wish they’d had more different personalities. Like Ren and Akeylah are the same person, just brought up with different abuse. And if Zofi has a personality beyond anger, she’s probably the same, too.

4 - What scene stuck with you the most?

I really liked the first time Ren and Zofi confronted Akeylah in the library - it was kinda “did we just become best friends?! YUP!” but also FINALLY gave them a team vibe and distinct specialties.

5 - What kind of lingering questions were you left with (besides the obvious cliffhanger WHY DID YOU DO THAT TO ME ELLEN)

literally what was the point of this being its own book if the single main conflict wasn’t actually resolved???

6 (a) - Could you relate to the characters & their story arcs?

Meh. I mean, a little bit? But overall I didn’t find them terribly relatable.

6 (b) - How do you feel about each character’s ending?

WHAT. ENDING.

7 - Were there times you disagreed with a character’s actions / would have done something different in their shoes?

YES MANY.

8 - Were you rooting for any character or pairing in particular?

I wanted to like Akeylah best bc she seems really sincere and genuine, BUT then suddenly all of her “I’m a secret genius” calculating stuff comes up and it’s a little tough to reconcile those things. I liked each of the girls okay, but I didn’t feel like there was a clear answer to who should rule (aside from Ren’s musing about all 3 of them, maybe).

9 - Do you picture any specific fancasts when reading the book?

The only one I have any clear idea what she looks like is Akeylah, but I can’t think of anyone who looks like that, you know? I think of Zofi as looking like an angry Ice Climber from Smash Bros. And like...idk maybe Letitia Wright for Ren? Maybe Lupita Nyong’o or Gugu Raw for Rozalind, unless she’s supposed to be the girls’ age, then somebody younger, I guess? Idk.

Story Specific Questions:

11 - Did you enjoy how each girl’s secret was teased out? Do you like when authors slow-roll this kind of information?

I do like a slow rollout (”who taught him ‘rollout’?!”), I think there’s a lot to be said for setting readers loose in medias res, BUT I also think it wasn’t handled amazingly here - idk maybe it’s just me, but I felt like it was sort of stage-whispering. Like “oh no I hope no one guesses my TERRIBLE SECRET!!! I would be in SO MUCH trouble!!” It just felt very obvious to me, although the secrets themselves weren’t obvious (the first time we learned about them).

12 - Do you think each character was fleshed out sufficiently, such that you had a sense of the different personality for each sister?

Not really? Kind of. An attempt was made with the girls, but basically no one else got any dimension whatsoever.

13 - Do you have guesses on who the blackmailer is?

Not really, bc this book broke every rule of how to write an engaging mystery. Like literally the only people who could POSSIBLY be it from the information we have are Rozalind, Vidal, and Andros, none of which really make sense given everything else, but like???? I guess Rozalind is my best guess bc she was acting kinda sus re: the acolyte etc. But I think that would be a bad choice unless a lot of other things change between now and that reveal.

14 - Was Yasmin a believable antagonist to you?

Like. I thought she was SCREAMINGLY obviously a red herring the entire book. She was brusque with the girls, and there was some weirdness in the first scene where the girls meet the king where I thought maybe she was possessing him, but that’s obviously just the weird mind link thing they did, and that’s it. Like being a bitch isn’t illegal.

15 - Do you think the daughters’ secrets were defensible actions?

Kinda? Like, definitely understandable, but like, is murder ever defensible? Ren had no reason to suspect her information would be used the way it was (whether or not Danton knew is something I’m not convinced on either way), Akeylah had no reason to believe she wasn’t cursing the man she fully expected to kill her (although MAYBE she should have paid closer attention during the cursing itself?? Like, the distance seems like it should have played a role in how hard it was to find “her father”), and Zofi perhaps overreacted, but used what seemed like appropriate force at the time in defense of another’s life (or rather she couldn’t/didn’t want to  think of a way to simply restrain or incapacitate Nicolen, so stabby stabby). Was it stupid? Yes, for all of them. But they’re children (are they 18? I forget how old they’re supposed to be. Also, why are they the same age, if they are? was that just Andros’s Good Fuckin Year?)

16 - How do you feel about this unique system of magic?

WEIRD. I NEED MORE INFORMATION. WHY does the blood have to be drawn? Where does it go? What is the scarring situation with these people? What about the SHARDS OF GLASS permanently embedded in Zofi’s legs? Speaking of which, how the FUCK are Travelers out here hand-blowing glass in a mobile way??? That’s not a pick-up-and-carry craft! What’s the cooldown period for tithing? Why is it CALLED tithing? Who are you tithing TO? What negative effects are there for tithing for too long? Zofi mentions that they exist, but this is never explained. I feel like after all her reading, Akeylah should be able to answer these questions for me. BUT SHE DIDN’T.

17 - Was the theme of racism sufficiently handled?

Handled..??? If by that you mean vaguely suggested as existing and occasionally seems to have affected some characters’ lives, sure. Like, the closest we got was “Vidal’s not as racist as some other people yay!”

18 - Do you have any theories about the poem found in the library?

tbh I don’t even remember a poem in the library, just the notes about the weird echo situation.

19 - How did you feel about the cliffhanger ending?

BAD. VERY BAD. It was like the ending of Cars in that it retroactively ruined a lot of the book for me. NOTHING was accomplished in this ENTIRE book WHY

[tinykings]

tagged by the lovely @terribleoldwhitemen to fill out this fanfiction survey, so here goes: 

fandoms: following her lead and saying fandoms with only 2+ fics: The Expanse (hoo boy), Frontier (hooooo boy), Bellevue (oh boy), The Terror (my boos) 

number of fics: 35 (not all of these are fics, though)

fic i spent the most time on: For Want of a Nail, because of its sheer volume

fic i spent the least time on: oh man, here’s the thing, i do not spend a lot of time on my smaller fics, but i have to say Skilled Hands and Talented Tongues, my House of Cards fic which exists (for some reason) just flowed, so I’ll say that one. 

longest fic: for want of a nail, which is 23,212 words and counting (it’s going to go up...some day)

shortest fic: hmm, so i tend to post fics between 500 and 2k, but some of my old, old fics are shorter, so i’ll have to say Little Girls Shouldn’t Go to Space, a Star Trek AOS nearly drabble that comes in at 99 words. I posted that in 2013. I was a wee baby. 

most hits: i could go with a poem that i posted years ago, but it’s not fandom related (still it has over 7,000 hits which...uh, how), so i’ll go with a fic: Open Your Eyes, a genderswapped Bond fic which has over 2000 hits which I guess speaks to what happens when you post a fic 1) at the height of Skyfall and Q/Bond fury and 2) seven years ago. I tagged it porn without plot, which isn’t entirely accurate. But it’s probably the closest I’ve gotten to smut. 

most kudos: Open Your Eyes again, although my first Terror fic, you don’t have to be a ghost here among the living, you are flesh and blood, and you deserve to be loved and you deserve what you are given, and oh how much (i was on a Florence + the Machine kick, OKAY) 

most comment threads: i know i seem shaky, these hands aren’t fit for holding, an Expanse fic, which was my first dive into that fandom, and boy what a dive

most bookmarks: in a moment of joy and fury i threw myself from the balcony like my grandmother, so many years before me, a star wars sort-of ben/poe fic which i do enjoy very much, even if i don’t think it’s my best work

total word count: 67,429. miles and miles to go. 

favorite fic: hmmm...i am rather fond of because i am done with my graceless heart, so tonight i’m gonna cut it out and then restart, a bellevue sort-of fix-it fic which i wrote in a fit of WTF IS THIS SHOW. (i’m fond of all my fics, though, they are my children) another fic i just LOVE is an Angels in America fic I wrote (I KNOW): In San Francisco, which is basically a love letter to Harper. 

fic i most want to expand on/rewrite: hmmm...so many of my fics are relatively new, but i do kind of want to expand on The Samuel Survives the Finale-verse series, even if I killed off Cobbs in Fever 1793 OOPS (maybe that’s just an alternate ending or something), mainly because i find the two of them post-series to be fascinating, and i’m pissed we never got to see them together again.

as far as rewriting goes, i don’t like rewriting for myself personally, and when i go back and read my fics, i don’t feel any pressing desire to reconfigure anything. i know that writing’s a different process for everyone, but i use my backspace key so much that i’m in a constant state of editing and revision. 

share a bit of a wip/story idea you’re working on: oh so many, but i did have a splash of inspiration for a casablanca fic set in the present-day, where Louis and Rick get stuck in Charles de Gaulle airport during a storm. i was supposed to write it for Lock Down Fest, but wasn’t able to, but I’d still like to write it. 

i also have that hogwarts/expanse AU fic that i’m working on, and it could end up being very long, if i’m lucky. 

tagging @thranduilsbitchboy ‘cause i know you write fic too!

[sussexualtension]

‘Ask The Author’ tag:

Man this is late! Better late than never. Thanks again for the tag, @ariestaurus21​

Rules: answer these questions and tag five other fic writers to do the same.

I was tagged by @AriesTaurus21, whom I always love chatting with.  She is a wise lady with much, diverse knowledge. Thank you for the tag!

Author name: DorisNancyGrey. My name on Tumblr is Sussexualtension because this was originally a Sherlock blog ;p

Fandoms you write for: Hawaii Five-0.

Where you post: AO3.

Most popular one-shot: I don't know if any of my stuff counts as a one-shot? When Office Plants Die started as a sort of one-shot. Lol I was testing the waters for my giant-ass story, A Burning Orchard.

Most popular multi-chapter story: When Office Plants Die has the most kudos, but A Burning Sky has more Comment threads!

Favorite story you wrote: LOL in my head, all my works are installments of the same story.

Story you were nervous to post: A Burning Orchard. I thought people were going to be like a) WTF mpreg or b) this is really dark, or c) wtf a lion!?

My fiancé convinced me to post When Office Plants Die, and he then convinced me to post A Burning Orchard.

How do you pick your titles: When Office Plants die had a lot of humor in it, so I just typed the first thing that came into my head. A Burning Orchard I liked because of the poem "A Poison Tree" by William Blake. I knew I wanted it to be about apples, but I settled on the final title because – abbreviated – it stands for ABO as in A/B/O dynamics. A Burning Sky seemed to fit because it was a natural disaster and people would know it was related.

Do you outline? Aaaaha. Funny you should ask. I didn't used to at all. My father flies jets but he writes in his spare time, too. He took a story-writing class by this genius guy in Orlando, FL and flew across the country to take this class every week. He started telling me about story structure and plot when I was 11 but I ignored it. I preferred to write what came to me. It ended with a bunch of stories with no endings and rambling without direction.

For the first time, in law school, I started becoming much more analytical about writing in general – I had to be. I had to completely relearn how to write, with a LOT of planning and a LOT of drafts. I started outlining like my research papers, making bullet points of every plot point, and then expanding into bullet points for every scene in lists below each plot point. I started paying attention to story structure, too, for the first time. I started trying to study other writers' work, about how stuff is foreshadowed and introduced early.

When I was in undergrad, though, I was lucky enough to get to know a very successful author and see how he worked – forcing himself to sit in his chair for one hour every single day without fail, churning out best seller after best seller.  He had at least 30 books on the NYT Bestseller list, and he legit only wrote an hour a day. My mom dated him for a few years, and they were engaged. I never gave him any of my stuff to read, though, because jesus my shit is m/m and the intimate scenes are not for the faint of heart. But I did try to learn from him. He always seemed to have a formula for his books, and he had learned what works for his audience. One of the secrets he imparted upon me is to "write what you know,” as in . . . if you are an artist, write about a character that is an artist in the ways that only an artist could (how expensive red oil paints are as opposed to other colors, stretching canvases, the overbearing smell of mineral spirits, and how cold art studios are, etc.). If you live in Seattle, then use your favorite local restaurants as settings.

People are attracted to genuine detail.

How many of your stories are complete? Everything that is posted is pretty much finished. That being said, I have some announcements soon, so stuff may be changing…

In-progress: LOL I set out to write a meaningless beachtrash novel about a terrifying, Viking-looking merman and a bored, coastal-residing millionaire that fall in love, but like, it's fucking weird. My goal is always to make people emotionally invested in weird shit.

Coming soon: I don't think I will ever stop writing in my universe.

Do you accept prompts? Oooh, I don't know. I've never gotten one.

Upcoming story you’re the most excited for?I'm planning one with a lot of New Orleans/voodoo/ghost/psychic vibes. I can't help but gravitate toward all that fun stuff >:) 

I am tagging @murphyhatesme​ and @cowandcalf​!

My dude I have to tell you right now even though I'm not st all caught up but I had a dream about ficus. Somehow he was an actor and playing a (I think) a villain, three others were the superheroes against him, one of which was someone dressed as wonder woman, another as a sort of futuristic looking dude. Don't remember the last. Anyway he met snow because snow had to replace one of the cast members feeling ill for some reason. Makes no sense...

I just had a really bad night, and a bad couple of days. It's still not too great but I'm feeling better mentally.

akjfnaksjfbnaksjfbasjfkasfd i hope you’re good these days ♥ haven’t seen you in a bit but i suppose you’re busy christmassing ;)

[exuviiae]

Here’s the info: First put down what Hogwarts house you’re in, and then sort each of your MCs into a house and explain why you think they belong in that house. It’ll be interesting to see how many of your MCs are in the same house as you. 

!!!! This is the kind of ask that gets me all fired up, also ‘cause I get to talk about my lovely kids and that’s just the best thing so thank you @butwewereanempire for tagging me I guess

Me: lol Slytherin af would sell their best pal for a Great™ edition of Keats’ poems, also apparently a sassy smartass?

So,, time to pick my characters I guess? You know what, I’m mixing up two (2) different stories ‘cause I’m a slut for my own characters

Arvid: Gryffindor (but firmly believes that the Hat was mistaken)

He’s the most timid creature out there and had to carry plenty of trauma on his tiny back, and although he would never ever label himself as brave or anything of the kind, he is ready to sacrifice himself when the time comes, if this grants his loved ones a chance of surviving

Erica: Ravenclaw (and keeps reminding Arvid about it)

She definitely is the Smart Friend™ who can surely get super smug about it, but has all the rights to do so. She is the voice of reason 24/7 although she is also the one who comes up with terrible ideas and would not let go of them until someone gets badly hurt or way too drunk

Emrys: Slytherin (I know this might surprise you  @butwewereanempire but let me explain)

They are a fae first of all, so as ambiguous as they could be (although they are pretty nice for a fae, and kinda clumsy at the times yes i have a crush on them do not judge). Although they do appear to be kind and a bit on the naive side, the whole plot revolves around them actually being ready to sacrifice those he grew fond with for the Greater Good (i.e. saving the planet and getting rid of the bad guys). They are smart and cunning but loyal to death, so they might actually be a borderline Slytherin with a hint of all the other houses tbh

Odin whose name has been a work in progress for 234 years but oh well: no clue tbh

I haven’t developed him that well yet so I would not go as far as putting him in a house I’m not sure of

Second story time!!! I’m enjoying myself waaaaaay too much!

Evangeline: Gryffindor

She is the bravest shit I’ve ever known, bold in her affections and beliefs, someone who would not think twice about punching a Nazi in the face (heck she wouldn’t even think once about it). She stands up for what she believes, although sometimes she carries it a bit too far? Not sure how to explain it. Loves her friends passionately and fiercely and would fight an army for them

Aelian: complex mix of Hufflepuff, Slytherin’s worst traits and Gryffindor’s stubbornness

A Walking Mess™ that tries her best on a daily basis and falls in love with pretty girls way too easily, always ending up badly burned. She does walk on the line and make some awful decisions like trying to sell the love of her life to one of the dukes of hell wtf gurl but can find her courage in the moments of need. Deep down she is a confused softie who just wants to do the right thing, although she starts out as selfish and a pit of a prick.

Samael: Slytherin obv

Most morally grey character I’ve ever written tbh, he is cunning as fuck and although he’s supposedly super partes, he enjoys messing around with mortals and their life a bit too much. Loves a bet when he sees one and could not stop grinning even if you tried slapping that smirk away of his bautiful carved face. Has bit of a rocky relationship with power and truly is a rebel at heart and yes he fought for freedom but he wouldn’t be caught dead admitting it. Loyal to death but god does he know how to hold a grudge... Also, sassy af

Leliel: borderline Slytherin-Ravenclaw, probably pushed the hat to get into the latter also ‘cause he did not really want to end up in the same dormitory as Samael thank you very much

He can come across as cold and dry-hearted at times, but only because he has no clue how human emotions are supposed to work. Tends to have difficulties disobeying direct orders, for the concept of conscience is fairly new to him? I mean he never had to question power, and would mark any rebellion as an eresy idk what I’m saying here. However he knows more than anyone about basically anything, a walking library with minus 20 sense of humor and sarcasm, which usually flies straight over his head

Okay this turned into a huge essay about my lovely children,, I’m sorry. I’m not really sure if any of my mutuals write? please do send an ask/pm if you do ‘cause I’d love to speak about OCs and writing in general!! I’m tagging @wekeepwalking who probably hates me by now lmao ‘cause she mentioned writing, so!! Everyone else feel free to do this and tag me!!!

[jacksgreysays]

(I hope it's okay to prompt more than once!) TITLE: "All distance breathes a final dream of bells" (referencing a line of the e.e. cummings poem "all nearness pauses, while a star can grow") STORY: Yoshino, Stars Also Dream AU where Obi-Wan dropped by after feeling Jashin, not Gelel.

I see everyone is excited about the Land of Hot Springs arc :)

I’m putting these three together because I think separately they won’t be very long mostly because they’re AUs/remixes of fic and brainstorms I’ve already done previously. I don’t mean to brush off these prompts–I, too, am all a flutter about the world building SQ’s introduced (GODS! WTF? I’M SO HAPPY AND CONCERNED?!)–but I’m not certain enough to do a full outline of a fic in relation to this topic.

I mean, as an appeasement of sorts, here’s some… spoilers, I guess: I was actually planning on doing a Hail To The Queen installment “she who has divine right” before the Jashin bomb drop (pun not intended) in which each time the Shinigami appeared it ominously looked in the direction of Shikako. Waiting for her to ascend… sort of? And during the Gelel struggle Shinigami might have intervened a little?

But finding out that Shikako is considered a “little god” by Actual Literal Eldritch Horror Jashin kind of just blew that idea away (pun still not intended). Not in a bad way, but that installment is definitely on hold until I can develop more of a sense of how deities work and, as a result, how divine right would also work. Also there are still two more canonical instances of deities that SQ might use so…

ANYWAY! Let’s start with @donapoetrypassion’s prompt:

So in a Stars Also Dream!AU where the Millennium Falcon shows up after the Jashin / Shikako nuke… you know what, this is maybe at most a week after the events of Rogue One? Shikako’s nuke might be the more important thing than the Jashin peering into the tangible world (then again, that’s probably a really creepy sensation in the Force).

Um. Regardless. Whatever vestigial echoes Obi-Wan feels, Yoshino is feeling ON BLAST (pun still not intended) to an exponential degree. And this is definitely worse than the original Gelel eruption because that one was a huge burst of energy but that was positive life energy being returned to the planet (and imbued into her daughter). The nuke was the horrific ritual being co-opted into an explosion as tweaked by the Force/Gelel which probably, especially since it results in basically an entire country being destroyed, doesn’t equal positive energy.

Yoshino was worried about her children being involved in the Gelel eruption before. This time she knows without a doubt that Shikako was there pulling on the Force/Gelel in order to do something that resulted in a country destroyed.

Also, she just gave birth, and no doubt her maternal feelings are on overdrive.

This time, when Obi-Wan comes she is not interested in pursuing this thread from the past. She is not interested in tagging along on his mission to save the princess from the Empire. She has to stay here, has to watch out for her family, has to keep herself and her own safe.

She’s not actively keeping this a secret from Shikaku, but he is, you know, a little worried about the whole nuke and war with Cloud. So it’s still a T&I only project like as in canon SAD, but instead of Yoshino (and Santa-kun) going with Obi-Wan I think maybe… do one of the droids stay behind? No… Does Ibiki have any summon beside that weird jail cell? He must, right? Like some kind of monitoring thing… That as well as a missive from Tsunade’s desk inviting the Rebel Alliance to treat with Konoha.

So a post-Jashin AU of SAD would have Yoshino hands off as far as Episode IV goes. Which is bad news for Obi-Wan–he’s going to die just like in canon–and maybe a younger, less hardened Yoshino would feel bad about that. This AU would be a lot more political, I think, than action/adventure; a lot more fraught and bleak.

Regarding the other two prompts, anon(s?), since I’m not confident enough in my grasp of what deities are like in DoS I’d probably just end up with vague ideas not unlike this suggestion from @wildtabbykat and Stories of Ancient Gods  as well as the rambling Rise-of-the-Guardians-esque brainstorm.

Shikako growing into her godhood. Becoming a god through belief from other people. Outlasting most of the people she loves. etc. etc. but having a fondness for those humans descended from those she once knew.

At some point, when her immortality begins to grate on her (and how ironic that someone whose life involved so much dying is immortal) she probably talks to the Shinigami. At first to get it to kill her finally, but eventually as one does equals…

Yeah. Sorry I couldn’t fill these properly, but hopefully these rants are entertaining enough.

    The Complete Poetry and Prose by William Blake, David V. Erdman (editor)

Since its first publication in 1965, this edition has been widely hailed as the best available text of Blake’s poetry and prose. Now revised, it includes up-to-date work on variants, chronology of the poems, and critical commentary by Harold Bloom. An “Approved Edition” of the Center for Scholarly Editions of the Modern Language Association.

Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov, Craig Raine

Humbert Humbert – scholar, aesthete and romantic – has fallen completely and utterly in love with Lolita Haze, his landlady’s gum-snapping, silky skinned twelve-year-old daughter. Reluctantly agreeing to marry Mrs Haze just to be close to Lolita, Humbert suffers greatly in the pursuit of romance; but when Lo herself starts looking for attention elsewhere, he will carry her off on a desperate cross-country misadventure, all in the name of Love. Hilarious, flamboyant, heart-breaking and full of ingenious word play, Lolita is an immaculate, unforgettable masterpiece of obsession, delusion and lust.

Books That Changed the World by Robert B. Downs

From the Bible, the Iliad, and the Republic to Civil Disobedience, Das Kapital, and Silent Spring, this revised and greatly expanded edition is a monument to the power of the printed word-an informative discussion of many of the most important works ever created.

Still Life with Woodpecker by Tom Robbins

Still Life with Woodpecker is a sort of a love story that takes place inside a pack of Camel cigarettes. It reveals the purpose of the moon, explains the difference between criminals and outlaws, examines the conflict between social activism and romantic individualism, and paints a portrait of contemporary society that includes powerful Arabs, exiled royalty, and pregnant cheerleaders. It also deals with the problem of redheads.

Immanuel’s Veins (Books of History Chronicles) by Ted Dekker

This story is for everyone–but not everyone is for this story.

It is a dangerous tale of times past. A love story full of deep seduction. A story of terrible longing and bold sacrifice.

Then as now, evil begins its courtship cloaked in light. And the heart embraces what it should flee. Forgetting it once had a truer lover.

With a kiss, evil will ravage body, soul, and mind. Yet there remains hope, because the heart knows no bounds.

Love will prove greater than lust. Sacrifice will overcome seduction. And blood will flow.

Because the battle for the heart is always violently opposed. For those desperate to drink deep from this fountain of life, enter.

But remember, not everyone is for this story.

  The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

It is 1939. Nazi Germany. The country is holding its breath. Death has never been busier, and will be busier still.

By her brother’s graveside, Liesel’s life is changed when she picks up a single object, partially hidden in the snow. It is The Gravedigger’s Handbook, left behind there by accident, and it is her first act of book thievery. So begins a love affair with books and words, as Liesel, with the help of her accordian-playing foster father, learns to read. Soon she is stealing books from Nazi book-burnings, the mayor’s wife’s library, wherever there are books to be found.

But these are dangerous times. When Liesel’s foster family hides a Jew in their basement, Liesel’s world is both opened up, and closed down.

In superbly crafted writing that burns with intensity, award-winning author Markus Zusak has given us one of the most enduring stories of our time.

Ditch Comments: My friend and I started a meditation group back in 2011 and this was what we kind of based our meetings on… we followed the meditations in this book, so I got through some of this book, but when our group fizzled out, I never really went back to it and I don’t see myself doing so. That is not to say this isn’t a wonderful book for beginners, because it truly is. I highly recommend this box set to anyone who is interested in meditation, but it just doesn’t belong on my TBR.

Helen of Troy by Margaret George

A lush, seductive novel of the legendary beauty whose face launched a thousand ships

Daughter of a god, wife of a king, prize of antiquity’s bloodiest war, Helen of Troy has inspired artists for millennia. Now, Margaret George, the highly acclaimed bestselling historical novelist, has turned her intelligent, perceptive eye to the myth that is Helen of Troy.

Margaret George breathes new life into the great Homeric tale by having Helen narrate her own story. Through her eyes and in her voice, we experience the young Helen’s discovery of her divine origin and her terrifying beauty. While hardly more than a girl, Helen married the remote Spartan king Menelaus and bore him a daughter. By the age of twenty, the world’s most beautiful woman was resigned to a passionless marriage until she encountered the handsome Trojan prince Paris. And once the lovers flee to Troy, war, murder, and tragedy become inevitable. In Helen of Troy, Margaret George has captured a timeless legend in a mesmerizing tale of a woman whose life was destined to create strife and destroy civilizations.

I do really want to read this book because I effing hate Helen of Troy and Paris with a fiery passion. I think they’re both despicably selfish and stupid and I’d love to read this book and see their side of the story.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas by Hunter S. Thompson

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is the best chronicle of drug-soaked, addle-brained, rollicking good times ever committed to the printed page. It is also the tale of a long weekend road trip that has gone down in the annals of American pop culture as one of the strangest journeys ever undertaken.
