Leon, I am an Old Man now. I have seen a lot. a piece of advice: You are a very lucky young Man. Take care of what you have been given. I have observed your wife and she is a keeper. For the rest of your life, I doubt you will encounter anything more valuable to you.

Congratulations Carolyn and Leon! I can't think of a more enchanting setting for such a special day than a library, surrounded by the stories and wisdom of counteless authors! Your love for books has always been a beautiful part of who you are, and it's truly poetic that you chose to begin this new chapter of your life amidst the pages that have inspired you! And yes Monte Cristo is such a page turner. So happy for you two! ❣️

Congratulations on this beautiful new chapter in your life. I’ve been with my husband for nearly 16 years and I felt like the way marriage is portrayed in Middlemarch was so depressing. While I could understand from where it was coming and what it wanted to bring, there was as little enjoyment in my reading it as there was for Dorothea with her older fellow 😅 I’m glad it didn’t deter you and Leon from taking the journey together

Congrats again. ❤ Sense and Sensibility is my fave Austen and Col. Brandon played by Alan Rickman is my fave Austen man, which is ironic because I don't like older men irl. I am glad I read Middlemarch for pretentious bragging rights, but I honestly don't remember much about it. I only truly enjoyed the epilogue. I wanted to study marine biology until I took a class in h.s. and it was just all math with a shark dissection. Like architecture, that is not for me.

"The Complete Poems of Anne Bronte (1920)" by Anne Brontë would be the only exceptional poetry book by one author and she has become my favorite. The only poet to ever surpass my female friend from college who could really write poetry. Anne's poetry is very Christian influenced and quite exceptional that from a different time she still writes with a power that speaks in today. Probably because she feared for the soul of her brother who lived wrong and died early and the sister who was so broken and yet wrote what so many love, who also died young. Ann also died young, and was only surpassed by Charlotte with "Vilette." Probably the best love story ever told. "My Lord, I have remembrances of yours" What's the use in remembering when it only unsettles my being? I used to fantasize about you coming back to me but that soon came to pass Your now an apparition I won't let your ghost rest It goes on searching in my remorse and cannot find a hollow place to lodge be a fixture on a wall in one the many rooms I've closed off It doesn't even feel empty anymore inside I hold onto the specter of you and it no longer speaks the sadness through its eyes By LRJ THE LAST TEMPTATION I am constantly crusading against myself because the thought of you breaking your own covenant just is inconceivable Morals and values one has don't change overnight They're burning into your being they bring justice to one's life So I go on and re-read your bible since its etched into my memory, a substance more unto everlasting than stone and go over the commandments Did I break a vow What sin did I commit Or was it that I committed myself to you not to your beliefs I placed a god before your god but this temple had no thieves This holy war just has too many holes, too many prayers, too many questions all unanswered Still I need some proof, something tangible to end this campaign against my self because I'm sacrificing myself to this shrine of songs, movies, books, authors, artists, sounds, foods, drinks, places, and automobiles that I have erected in my mind not knowing it was consecrated until you became idle. by LRJ I wonder if you are still there Inside of me I feel your presence I will not forget the happiness I can not forget the sadness It drips constantly from my eyes Yet there are no tears Now I lose myself in constant waves of the sea of unknown faces - I drown myself in - I still long to see your face - Then - I see you My heart now beating as Fast as a wind of a storm Blowing fiercely Over the pages of an open book Ripping them over and over Page after page crashing down Slamming Shut by LRJ "I'm looking for a substitute for the overdone trite thing" You are not who you're suppose to be. You are not like the rest - You're different. You seem to have the ability to survive - on your own. I think that's what I like about you. she smiled; her eyes burning bright like the celestial bodies of the cloudless night. You are so very different from anyone I've met You carry on happily, solemnly without regret You bow to none - having none of rank You pass along quietly as a river its' bank You are not silent - though your quiet deceives You are one alone, you do as you please. I think that's what I like about you she smiled; her cheeks blooming rose like after the first warm rains end the mem'ry of snows. You are not who you're suppose to be You are not like the rest, but like infinity You are not like the rest only restlessness ever You won't be tied down - and committed - Oh! Never! You won't be persuaded, you either do or you don't You won't go gently into that good night, Oh, no! You won't I think - that's what I like about you. She smiled; her brow furrowed slight like a rippling breeze over water in the moon - light. You are not who you're suppose to be You are everything that contradicts me You seem to have the ability to survive on your own I think that is why I must break you bone from bone. by LRJ "The Unbearable Darkness of being Armand" You've eaten me. In a dream I saw you. There was no regret and there is no remuneration for me Cause I let you. And I watched it all so carefully and so concluding that the drug for me Is that fall. I tried and tried to make you take but you did all the giving And it was I that made the mistake of crossing your empty, dry, cracked, wanton desert to find you weren't waiting for me On the other side but actually walking away with no guilt, no sadness, no desire, no pretenses but singing about Fate Or was it vertigo? Yes, I remember now The pages of Kundara fly by in my memory I cried out after you but you disappeared Suddenly I was standing on the edge of a gorge The Earth beneath my feet was like stale breadcrumbs Paralyzed by fear I could do nothing But watch it fall away from me. When your voice breathed hard on my face Saying you could fly. It pushed me off balance I fell with horrid tingling throughout my body but mostly in my chest My back slammed the ground out came all the breath from my body and as I felt my eyes bulging Ready to burst with pain, love, tears, and Blood Shot open my eyelids gasping and sitting up in bed - at once - I Alone with your voice whispering to me Still saying that you could fly... I bet you can. by LRJ It's funny how, though you are talkative, the first thought of those eyes was to think of a mouse, when I first ran across you, and so to hear of your squeaky voice at your wedding is just a pefect image, for me, and the first picture, at 39 seconds, is probably how I'll always remember you now. The congradulations are to Leon, he found the right one.

Middlemarch has some of the best words written about a woman in the beginning and end. The movies are in the same order as the books for me. 146) Pride and Prejudice (2005) 153) Emma (2020) 225) Sense and Sensibility (1995) The only way to be introduced to actualy Beatrix Potter stories is to begin with the youngest of the adventures, the short ones, as then you realize the charm and ability to captivate a very small child: begin with these two, The Story of a Fierce Bad Rabbit The Story of Miss Moppet Then go to things like "Peter Rabbit" or "Samuel Whiskers" or "Tom Kitten."

And I hope you jabe reat Madame Bovary, its also a tragic story, and thats why they say it reminds them of Anna Karenina...And fun fact, I have read somewhere that Madame Bovary was inspiration for Leo Tolstoy to write Anna Karenina, and as it is your favourite book, I think you must read Madame Bovary. Its also a sad story, but interest8ng in every way. Happy reading, a nd I hope I helped yoi with these sugestions 😊
