Little Women by Louisa May Alcott
Jo's Boys by Louisa May Alcott
Picture or Dorian Gray Oscar Wilde
Dracula Bram Stoker
The Vampire Chronicles Anne Rice (all of them, even the terrible ones towards the end, but especially the first three and the Vampire Armand)
Cry to Heaven Anne Rice
Frankenstein Mary Shelly
World War Z Max Brooks
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (hated the book. Obsessed with the concept. What I really want is for zombies/vampires/werewolves/whatever to enter all of my favorite classic and for it to be angsty as hell and 100% serious.)

yeah, that's good
do i even know ten people that megan hasn't already tagged
(i'm only gonna do some since tumblr only tracks the first five tags and if i tagged you then you totally don't have to do it if you don't want to)
Just because you started learning something / a new hobby "later in life" does NOT make you inferior to those who've been engaged in it longer than you.
It just means you started later, that's all.
If it's important to you, if it make you happy, then that's all that matters.
Can you not use the phrase "X game too strong" because that's appropriating AAVE? It's really racist, shitty thing of you to do, especially since you're white.
It didn’t occur to me at the time, I’m sorry!! I’ll change that caption now.
(I’m actually latina though just white as a ghost!!)
