Currently re-reading Shania Twain's autobiography

Welcome to our new board, Ashley!

After years of reader's block (with two or three notable exceptions) I seem to be back in reading mode. I'd heard so many good things about The Great Gatsby from a remarkable poster at PSF that I promised myself I'd start on it once I'd done one of the horrendously difficult Sudoku puzzles I'd been working on. Mission accomplished, I'm now about a third of the way through. It's true what I'd been told----every line is like a prose poem. And FSF has a sense of humour.

Saw the film a few years back and loved it. Maybe that's the way to do it----film first and book
later. I should imagine the other way round makes things difficult. (Matter of opinion maybe.)
Thank you to that person. And now it's time for my morning shot of the party scene:

Re-reading Anne of Green Gables series... onto book 2 now haha

I've been reading the Anne of Green Gable series. Currently on Anne of Ingleside

Hector Berlioz's Mémoires, in the superb translation by David Cairns (the English title is A Life & Love of Music). Of course, you can't make a great translation out of a bad source text--it helps that Berlioz excelled as a writer as well as a composer.



How are you doing with your L. M. Montgomery books, Ashley?
