I've been umming and ahhing about whether to go see To Kill a Mockingbird but now, should the chance arise, I'll be jumping at it. <br /><br />You liked Gatsby?! Yeh so, I need to read your thoughts on that because I am still obsessing over it. If I don't listen to at least part of the soundtrack in a day I start rocking and mumbling to myself. Yeh, I got it bad.Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09362128444319074118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-12174067395351318782013-06-12T17:30:29.587+01:002013-06-12T17:30:29.587+01:00I've seen To Kill a Mockingbird on stage and i...I've seen To Kill a Mockingbird on stage and it really it wonderful!

WHY? (That does sound magical though, obvs.)<br /><br />I appreciate this mental note! I so far have one edition so yeah, I'm sucking at this collection thing- I think the deal is that NO ONE gives away TKAM to charity shops or anything because it's SO GOOD. Which makes me happy in its own way :)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17371636785566309578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-24721059098306420712013-06-11T00:46:08.117+01:002013-06-11T00:46:08.117+01:00Until you've seen A Midsummer Night's Drea...Until you've seen A Midsummer Night's Dream at dusk in the Cairns botanical garden and seen Puck descend down a tree you've not seen real open air theatre....<br /><br />But in all seriousness, TKAM sounded awesome and I will make a mental note to buy all the TKAM editions for your next birthday.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09259549933849264277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-61845213818498984782013-06-11T00:43:33.400+01:002013-06-11T00:43:33.400+01:00Well it's not in Australia because it has rain...Well it's not in Australia because it has rained for like 12 years now.

It is very amazing. If, however, I had cried about it in public then I would feel completely completely different about it because NO. No. But I think you need to read/listen to it at home, for reals.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17371636785566309578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-66003555032132534542013-06-10T20:57:34.100+01:002013-06-10T20:57:34.100+01:00It so was, Kayleigh, I can't lie!

I totally don't know what that's like, properly, cause England is so teeny that even if I lived in, like, The North, London would only be a few hours away! So yeah, dayyyymn America is huge :).

I don't understand where the sun is, but if it's not in Europe or America then I guess a whole other continent?

But anyways, TKAM in an open air theater sounds spectacular!! <br /><br />And YAY for a new bed! And reading in the sun, and The Great Gatsby, and all that fun stuff.
