Danielle (danielleeyypop) What book(s) are you currently reading?

I'm currently in the middle of reading The Diamond of Darkhold, been reading it for a while now, got busy with school, but so far it's pretty good. Loving the series though!

Tara Green I love the mortal instrument series by cassandra clare. I am on the 4th one, city of fallen angels. Right now I am reading The Forest of Hands and Teeth (The Forest of Hands and Teeth, #1) by Carrie Ryan . It's pretty good so far.

Tammy | 4 comments I just picked up The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath. I'm really looking forward to getting into it.

What's it about?


message 9: by Tammy (new)

Tammy | 4 comments I'm only a few chapters in, but I believe it delves into depression and manic behavior of the main character. It is about a young woman who basically goes insane.

Oh. So what is the Bell Jar supposed to be for?


message 11: by Tammy (new)

Tammy | 4 comments (sorry) I'm a little confused. I'm just reading it for fun.

My teacher gave us an Edgar Allan Poe poem to read and review.

Annabel Lee

It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of ANNABEL LEE;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.

I was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea;
But we loved with a love that was more than love-
I and my Annabel Lee;
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
Coveted her and me.

And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her highborn kinsman came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea.

The angels, not half so happy in heaven,
Went envying her and me-
Yes!- that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.

But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we-
Of many far wiser than we-
And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.

For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling- my darling- my life and my bride,
In the sepulchre there by the sea,
In her tomb by the sounding sea.

~ I think this is really beautiful.
