The Journal Tag
I have a LOT of journals! I had fun doing this journal tag, answering the questions, and exploring through my old journals from years ago!
Measure for Measure by Shakespeare
This is now one of my favorite Shakespearean plays! I love the writing and the funny dialogue despite the serious subject matter. There are some sexual subjects discussed such as prostitution being against the law, and pregnancies out of wedlock, so maybe not one for the kids.
Let’s Talk Ann Radcliffe
Ann Radcliffe wrote some wonderful Classic Gothic/Adventure books! I love her novels!
Ann Radcliffe novels mentioned: Mysteries of Udolpho, Romance of the Forest, The Italian, Castles of Athlin and Dunbayne, Gaston de Blondeville.
(Jane Austen novels mentioned: Emma, Northanger Abbey)
