#sentimentalstack
.
@anotherbooktoread and @bookish.mum tagged me to post a sentimental stack. If you’ve been following me for a while you’ll know that I’m hopelessly sentimental, and am drawn to the themes of memory and nostalgia in my reading. Unfortunately quite a few of my “sentimental books” are in storage at the moment, so I guess I’ll just have to do another post when I’m reunited with them! Here are a few sentimental books:
.
Charlotte Bronte biography - my mum gave me this beautiful book and I’m working my way through it
.
The Sealwoman’s Gift - I was reading this whilst on a special trip to Iceland last year. A poignant novel that includes themes of memory and the transcendental power of story-telling in adverse situations.
.
Never Let Me Go - a gift from my late brother - I love Ishiguro’s writing and how he deals with the past and memory. For me, Ishiguro is one of the most re-readable authors - do you agree
.
Rebecca and My Cousin Rachel - my introductions to Daffers in my teens (though not with these editions). They’re both in my top three Daffers
.
Far from the Madding Crowd - my introduction to Thomas Hardy and my epiphany moment that studying literature can be immensely enjoyable!
.
The Count of Monte Cristo - my grandfather’s editions, and I loved this story. Though I can’t look at the name “Dumas” without remembering the amusing library episode in the movie, The Shawshank Redemption!
.
What are your thoughts on these books? Would love to see your sentimental stack - consider yourself tagged if you’d like to join.

The month of May is underway, and I’m looking forward to a read-along for ‘The Count of Monte Cristo’ by Alexandre Dumas. This thick tome has been on my reading list for years, so it will be a pleasure to FINALLY crack it open! If this is one you’ve been anxious to read, do join, @booksbythecup, @bookpimp, @rynaereading and myself as we read and discuss this adventure packed classic. We’re planning on a discussion every two weeks, and reading the novel over an eight week period, so very doable! Make sure to tag us in your posts and use the hashtag, #monteinmay19.

Reading Schedule:
Ch. 1-30 - Discussion 5/11 by @booksbythecup

The Daily Steep: Rooibos Organic Vanilla Tea by @fieldtocup. May’s Discover - Low Caffeine monthly box just showed up in the mail, and I’ve already steeped and loved this tea three times now! A smooth blend of organic rooibos with vanilla bean extract, it’s the perfect late afternoon or evening tea, especially when you’re craving something sweet.
4/16/19. Some French authors. Because nothing else will do when you’re still in shock over yesterday's devastating fire at Notre Dame Cathedral in France.
.
Have you read any of these stories yet? I’ve so far only read The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux, and Alexandre Dumas’s The Count of Monte Cristo was next on my list. But I think I may now have to read Victor Hugo’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame first.
.
How do current events influence what you read next?

Illustration #1 for The Count of Monte Cristo! While drawing this I fluctuated between absolute misery and having the time of my life.(also, I know they don’t make it to the wedding in the book, but I thought it would be clearer storytelling this way)

#thecountofmontecristo #alexandredumas #illustration #animation #characterdesign #artistsoninstagram #cartoon #art #edmonddantes oh hey also did you know white wedding dresses weren’t traditional until Queen Victoria’s wedding? She made a huge statement by wearing a plain white dress, and the idea spread. Before that people just wore their best dress, that way they could re-use it and didn’t have to worry about stains.
Мюзикл "Граф Монте -Кристо" в театре Музыкальной комедии, это превосходно. Ну ладно буду честна 9/10. Но это только потому, что я очень скептически отношусь к любым экранизациям, по-настоящему понравившихся мне книг так как это всегда личное видение постановщика или режиссёра и многое сокращается, вырезается, изменяется, а мне сложно абстрагировать от оригинального текста. Но так как ещё я и огромный поклонник мюзиклов, то просто не смогла пройти мимо него.
Так же в дополнение, там играла моя любимая трупа так, что сказать что-то плохое язык не повернётся. Ведь они были восхитительны.
Так что любителям мюзиклов, да и просто желающим посмотреть хорошее представление очень советую. #графмонтекристо #театрмузыкальнойкомедии #музком #музкомедия #музкомспб #мюзикл #thecountofmontecristo #верасвешникова #кириллгордеев
