I haven’t posted in months!

So what are you reading this month? I need #bookrecs 📚

Or why not adapt sequels of well known classical novels and/or novels with the famous authors having new adventures? It has been done with success on both accounts for Jane Austen. [4/4]

#Booksky #JaneAusten #PrideandPrejudice #Netflix

Why not start with authors that famous authors like Jane Austen have read/been inspired by? To cite one, Frances Burney [3/4]

As much as I would love more Jane Austen (there can never be enough) why not adapting a classical novel or author that has never been (or has been a handful of times) adapted before? There are so many incredible stories waiting to be told [2/4]

I’ve read that Netflix is making a new Pride & Prejudice with Emma Corrin as Elizabeth Bennet. I am unconvinced about this casting, despite Corrin being a good actress. I am worried they will take liberties as they did with Persuasion. [Cont. 1/4]

New book. Lucky find in the used section #BookSky #UsedBook

Will this app be made available also in the European Union, specifically in Italy?

A new book that I am looking forwards to reading #BookSky #newbook

A year ago or thereabouts. A few of the many delicious breakfasts that made my day sweeter.

Went to the Art of Play experience/exhibition - cute.

Bowl of spicy ramen on a teal colored table with utensils on its left snd a bottle pf strawberry juice on its right

Spicy Ramen at lunch (and strawberry/yuzu juice) - my favorite, especially when it is cold outside.

Not book related but oh so pretty… Autumn in Rome #autumnvibes

A woman’s hand is holding up in a bookshop a copy of the hardcover of Robert Harris’ new book Precipice

In a bookshop, a woman’s hand is holding open, at the title page, the hardcover signed by the author edition of Robert Harris’s new novel Precipice. The author’ signature is on the title page, below the title.

I love it when I find a special signed by the author’s edition at a bookshop - in this case Robert Harris’ new book Precipice

Book & Museum? 100% great combination

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #4,598,438!

Great novel, fun idea!

The French version of one of my favorite novels, Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, with a cool twist: peppered with black and white illustrations, illustrated edges etc… that can be colored!

Wonderful concert tonight: music from #RyuichiSakamoto soundtracks - The Last Emperor, Little Buddha, The Sheltering Sky, Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence, and many more

Star Wars: Death Troopers. 3/5⭐️ Fun read if you like Star Wars & horror (zombies), but not particularly scary. Would have preferred it scarier, more jump scares & more atmosphere. No need for Han & Chewie. Original characters more interesting. Nevertheless, fairly enjoyable. #starwars #horrorbooks

A little corner of #Rome on a sunny day a few years ago.

On Saturday, late afternoon, our beloved cat Toby has crossed the Rainbow Bridge. We are devastated but grateful he is no longer in pain. Parted from us but always in our hearts, minds and memories. We love you, Toby, always. Today we grieve #cat #rainbowbridge

A trip down memory lane at the #TakeThat concert a few days ago.

The last time I was in this particular street was in the late 90s. I was glad to be back, even if it was for a few moments as we were just driving by… #rome #romeitaly #romaitalia #roma #thecolosseum #ilcolosseo

A lovely day out at the lake #lake #dayout

My Gio’s recent #bookhaul: a scifi novel by A. Reynolds and a biography on Enzo Ferrari.

Evening. Pink roses in front of a brick wall and next to an outdoor light

Evening roses. Moody.

In front if a leafy, dark green plant, a hand is holding a white ipad showing a list of Bridgerton novels (the covers only) read, in the process of reading and unread.

As I wait for part deux of the third season of Bridgerton, I am enjoying a (re)read of Julia Quinn’s novels, in no particular order and very much depending on which #Bridgerton brother or sister I feel like reading about at that moment. #books #currentlyreading #novels #bookstoread

Breakfast: latte macchiato in a tall glass, a glass of water and three mini size breakfast pastries (cornetto, pain au chocolat, etc…) on a plate

Good morning 😊

Right before my doctor apt. I enjoyed my first ice cream of the season: Gianduia chocolate & hazelnut with whipped cream. Intense & creamy with the added bonus of being gluten & lactose free (even the whipped cream was made with soy milk) & with less sugar. Scrumptious! Must go back #icecream

Lucky find at a literary cafe. Two french novels, one of which (Soumission) I had been meaning to read for a while. I guess now it’s the right time. #books #frenchbooks

Judi Dench book on Shakespeare with on the background blue sky and cloud, trees, bushes with white flowers and red roses
