New reads: Official Guide to Colonial Williamsburg (1985) by Michael Olmert - I read most of it when I went there back in the '90s, FWIW.
On my Kindle, it's the short story The Little Girl and Dering (1910) by G. B. Lancaster and then the self-help book Character (1881) by Samuel Smiles.

I went to a book talk and signing last night. It featured three mystery authors: Joanna Schaffhausen, Arlene Kay and Kate Flora. It was a pretty good event and afterwards, I bought books from all three authors and had them signed. While I hadn't read anything from Arlene Kay or Kate Flora before, I am a huge fan of Joanna Schaffhausen's work and brought all my books that I hadn't had signed yet. Plus I bought another copy of one of her books to give away at the next meeting of my local library's Mystery Book Club.
And I took a photo with her as well.

I eventually saw the movie when they were showing it on a weekend at college. Originally Posted by The Darknight Detective

It brought back memories of my childhood.

I didn't see it until the '80s, but it's easily one of my favorite horror films. I figured it was time I checked out the source material. Originally Posted by MajorHoy
