I picked up both The Common Reader and Stone Butch Blues again. I don't like leaving books unfinished.

#I listened to the first few chapters of Stone Butch Blues on Youtube but they only had the beginning chapters #I finally downloaded the pdf from Feinberg's (the author's) website and I've been reading it on my phone #I wanted to buy a print copy from a used book store but most for sale are 50+ dollars a copy! #stone butch blues takes place in the mid century so they're in the 1960's where I'm reading b/c some of the men are being sent to Vietnam #I never finished The Common Reader either #I just read parts of it for class or because they were Woolf's takes on authors I liked or read before #you KNOW I've already read all the victorian crit she did #she did chapters on Austen The Brontes and Eliot #these books both fit prompts for my reading challenge too #the birthyear book and the unfinished book #1993 was an interesting year for literature- Stone Butch Blues Girl Interrupted and Touched by Fire (a bipolar study) all came out #also happy 30th anniversary to all those books #both authors are lgbt! Woolf was bisexual #she's also my background with Radclyffe Hall and their pride flags (lesbian for Hall and bisexual for Woolf) #I finished Nita Tyndall's Who I was with Her and Norah Vincent's Self Made Man earlier this week #books #bookblr #currently reading
