  1. Oh you are in for such a treat with We Have Always Lived in the Castle – love that book! Also, yes, that cake is amazing!!

    • I’m looking forward to that Shirley Jackson. I’ve held off watching the Netflix series until I read the book. However, I already watched most of the Haunting of Hill House Netflix series, so I will have to just compare and contrast with that one.

  2. Iโ€™ve read both Shirley Jackson books and enjoyed it. House of Leaves and Girls of Murder City look interesting…
    Belated happy birthday to you!๐Ÿ˜ƒ

    • A friend loaned me his copy of Force of Nature months ago. I am just now getting to it. I’ve been feeling guilty about keeping his book so long. The Anita Hughes book is good so far and is going to be released on Tuesday. Have a great week!

  3. Happy Birthday, Sarah and that is an awesome cake! ๐Ÿ˜€ As for reading, I would be interested to read your thoughts on The Lottery, as I haven’t read that Jackson collection, and I still hope you will enjoy We Have Always Lived in the Castle. Happy reading! ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Thank you for the birthday wishes! I did not love the Shirley Jackson short stories collection. A few stories were good and some were meh, but then it concludes with The Lottery, which was far superior but also very disturbing.

      • You’re welcome. I have read her collections The Birds & Other Short Stories and The Doll: Short Stories. I hope you enjoy Jamaica Inn – it’s not my favourite but still very, very good. ๐Ÿ™‚

  4. Happy belated birthday!!
    Iโ€™ve also been listening to audiobooks recently. It makes my commute a little happier ๐Ÿ˜‚
