I am reading Charlotte Brontë - Jane Eyre, embarrassingly I have never read it before and it is totally engrossing. My partner is also reading it with me so we can talk about it. Going from here we want to explore media based on it, there is so much!

So… Whatcha Readin this week?

    I started “The Vegan Studies Project” by Laura Wright, in which she looks through a vegan lens at the trend of vampire romance… apparently, I am susceptible to suggestion, because I stopped reading that book after the chapter where she discusses “True Blood” and instead read the first book in the Sookie Stackhouse series, “Dead Until Dark”. I don’t know that I’d recommend it, but it was a quick read and put me in mind of its time, late 90s/early 2000s.

    Now I’m back to the Vegan Studies Project. I’m not finding it terribly compelling, honestly, but that’s okay. It is at least interesting to see an academically-oriented vegan text looking at, among other things, media that I love like Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
