Reviving My Meme

Quite some time ago, I had a meme on this blog.  Unfortunately, I've

neglected it for awhile.

Well, starting this Monday evening, I am pleased to announce

(drumroll, please)

THE RETURN OF HOBBY-TALK TUESDAY!

Reading Alcott Again

Once again, I am reading Louisa May Alcott's books, and once again I am reading them

in chronological order.   However, instead of reading one a week, as I did last year,  I'm

reading  one of LMA's books, then three books by other writers, and then an LMA

book again.

Also,  I am reading the physical copies, rather than the online versions.  Some books

seem best read in their original form.

I'd like to someday have all of Louisa May Alcott's books in the Orchard House Editions.
