"One Last Caress.....It's Time To Dress....For....Fall!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

                               Alas, darlings, it is a sad time of year. This is the official end of Summer; Proserpina is, at this moment, packing her bags and saying goodbye to mother, before returning to Hell tomorrow, for the next six months!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                It was a mild Summer, weather wise.  We got to see some movies, some shows, and I got some time in with Hamlet, The Algonquin Cat.  I succeeded in all my reading endeavors, from "Jonathan Strange And Mr. Norrell" to my Victorian re reads.

                                 Now, I have returned to the present day; I am currently rereading "The Bad Seed," which is SO much fun, darlings, but I have a pile of contemporary fiction to get through, and then there is The New York Times' Most Notable Books and Five Works Of Fiction Lists to be perused and read.  Yes, it looks like it is going to be a busy Fall.

                                It was lovely having you all readers this Summer.  I do hope you return in the Fall.

                                Though Summer is at its end, The Raving Queen is sure not to run out of adventures!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                  See you in the Fall, girls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
