How many good books suffer neglect through the inefficiency of their beginnings!

I think I spend more time deciding what to read than I do actually reading 🫣

[✨ Tara Wine-Queen Writes ✨ @TaraWineQueen]

I identify with Frankenstein’s monster because I, too, am:

- Intellectually curious
- Held together by a thread
- Seeking love and affection
- Interested in burning down the homes of those who have betrayed me
- Scared by my own reflection
- Better in theory than real life

@glittergoblins Thank you so much! Will have to wear a scarf now though 😂

The reason many "classic" (read: Victorian) novels are so long is that they were released serially, one chapter at a time in a magazine or newspaper. So I find it helps to read them like you'd watch a TV show; one chapter at a time/occasionally binging a whole bunch all at once.
