Dark Academia – Re-marks – 1000 pieces
I’ve started another collage, this is another book covers collage from Re-marks and I can already tell that it is going to be extremely entertaining to assemble!
Usually there are many books from these types of collages that I have read, this time there’s only one – it shocked me. You may be surprised to find that I consider my self relatively intelligent and well read but in this collage the only book shown that I’ve read is Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. Does that make a uncultured swine? Perhaps. I don’t really care; I’m past the age of giving a crap what other people think of me and doing things because someone else thinks I should. A few of the books look interesting, but at the moment I’m not going out of my way to stock up on any of them. For me the draw here was the image of the book covers themselves, not to get a suggested reading list. It just looks like a fun puzzle and that’s it.
So far it’s been great. The initial sorting didn’t seem to take forever, I pulled the pieces for a dozen or so books that were easy to find, and got all the edges on the first try. Excellent progress so far. 😎

This looks like so much fun! I love Re-marks book collage puzzles. I’ve read seven of the books, including Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone. Like you, at this time, I have no intention of stocking up on the others.
I’m with you, read what you want, and the heck with what other people think. I have visual problems (macular degeneration), so, I still read books and e-books, but I also listen to audiobooks.
I’m not sure if it’s appropriate to list books I’ve read/listened to this year, but here are some of them:
The Bear & the Nightingale by Katherine Arden (fiction)
Wintersmith by Terry Pratchett (fiction)
Winter: The Story of a Season by Val McDermid (nonfiction)
One Aladdin Two Lamps by Jeanette Winterson (both fiction and nonfiction)
Anne of Green Gables: A Graphic Novel, adapted by Mariah Marsden, illustrated by Brenna Thummler
The Bookshop: A History of the American Bookstore by Evan Friss
The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett (fiction)
Charlotte’s Web by E.B. White (fiction)
The last two were rereads for me.
It’s wonderful to have you back!
