Still settling in for a long winter’s nap, it seems. I’ve rekindled a dormant romance with reading. I just might make that reading challenge, after all.
The Amazon series is fantastic so far. Christina Ricci plays Zelda Fitzgerald with a sweet yet demure nature. The setting and scenery is romantic and so far the script follows the book fairly closely. I love when the screenplay adaptation uses phrases and conversations word-for-word from the original.
Historical fiction has always fascinated me. I can’t imagine the hours of research it takes to be able to build a fictious story around real facts. As I’m reading, I’m always Googling fastidiously, trying to figure out what is real and what is made up. I know practically nothing about F. Scott Fitzgerald, didn’t even know that he was married. And the more I read, the more I want to know. If only I could read and delve further all day long.
Luckily, winter provides ample time to get lost in other people’s lives. After this I’m wanting to read up on Talulah Bankhead. She was mentioned in Z and after Wikipedia-ing her, my interest is muchly piqued.
