Where to start, so I've had my TJ back for a week today it's been wonderful!!! Halloween week was a blast as well. All the parties and caramel corn were fabulous, the week kicked off with our book club Frankenstein Halloween party. I did not really enjoy reading Frankenstein but the ladies in my book group helped me see a lot of good in it and learn lessons like take responsibility for your mistakes early on as well as there is good and evil to everyone and the older we get the more mistakes we have made but we have to learn to overcome mistakes with beauty or something like that. The main thing that caused me to not like the book (stop reading now if you plan on reading the book) was when Frankenstein's life long love Elizabeth gets killed on their wedding night. Who leaves their bride alone on their wedding night!!!??? Anyway there was a lot of flowery language as well that I found my self dazing out during. But the book is quite an accomplishment by the 19 year old Mary Shelly and she came from an absolutely amazing background, her mother and father were both writers, her mother was one of the original feminists and her father a politician as well as she hung out with other authors such as Lord Byron. I love my book club group they are some of my favorite ladies great examples of down-to-earth but very enlightened and intelligent women who are all around amazing women who have impacted my life in different ways.
