Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bones and I: Or the Skeleton at Home Long ago, visiting iIkmonastery of La Trappe, I wius struck with the very discontented appearance of its inmates. In some of their faces, indeed, I detected no expression whatever, but on none coukl I perceive the sliirhtest jjlcam of satisfaction with their lot. No wonder: few men are of the stuff that makes a good recluse. The human animal is naturally gregarious, like the sohin goose, the buffalo, the monkey, or the mackerel.

Book excerpt: Bones and I, or The Skeleton at Home is a humorous novel written by G. J. Whyte-Melville, a 19th-century British author known for his sporting and comedic works. This novel was first published in 1868. The story is a satirical and comedic exploration of the experiences of the protagonist, Jack Raggles, who comes into possession of a human skeleton. Jack, a country squire with a penchant for pranks and jokes, inherits the skeleton from his late uncle, Sir Tancred Raggles. With the arrival of the skeleton, Jack's life takes a comically macabre turn as he incorporates the skeleton into various absurd and humorous situations. He uses it as a source of amusement, incorporating it into his daily life, and even introducing it as a family member. The novel is a blend of humor, satire, and absurdity, and it lampoons the British upper class and their eccentricities. It's known for its comedic and lighthearted tone, with the skeleton serving as a central element of humor throughout the story. Bones and I is a product of its time, reflecting the comedic literature of the Victorian era and the taste for wit, humor, and satire. It is often appreciated for its light-hearted and entertaining narrative, as it pokes fun at societal conventions and eccentricity.

I will endeavour to translate one of the sonnets he made on his voyage, " Yret et dolent m'en partray," &c. It has some pathos and sentiment. " I should depart pensive but for this love of mine so far away, for I know not what difficulties I may have to encounter, my native land being so far away. Thou who hast made all things and who formed this love of mine so far away, give me strength of body, and then I may hope to see this love of mine so far away. Surely my love must be founded on true merit, as I love one so far away. If I am easy for a moment, yet I feel a thousand pains for her who is so far away. No other love ever touched my heart than this for her so far away. A fairer than she never touched any heart, either so near or so far away."' " It is utter nonsense, I grant you, and the doings of this love-sick idiot seem to have been in character with his stanzas, yet is there a mournful pathos about that wailing so far away which, well-worded, well-set, and well-performed, would make the success of a drawing-room song. " If the Countess of Tripoli, who seems also to have owned a susceptible temperament, had been his cousin and lived next door, he would probably not have admired her the least, would certainly never have wooed her in such wild and pathetic verse; but he gave her credit for all the charms that constituted his own ideal of perfection, and sickened even to death for the possession of his distant treasure, simply and solely because it was so far away! " What people all really love is a dream. The stronger the imagination the more vivid the phantom that fills it; but on the other hand, the waking is more sudden and more complete. If I were a woman instead of a--a--specimen, I...

Highly recommended!” — Open Book Society Pennycross is spooked after a student is murdered at a popular haunted house, and now it’s full scream ahead for English adjunct professor Georgia Thackery and Sid the Skeleton as they scramble to solve the case... No bones about it, Halloween is Sid the Skeleton’s absolute favorite season! It’s the one time of year he can freely cavort around town with his best friend, English adjunct professor Georgia Thackery. Sid’s especially looking forward to Pennycross’s infamous Halloween Howl. The annual, month-long event celebrates all things spooky, but its main attraction is undoubtedly the haunt at “McHades” Hall. Every October, to raise scholarship funds, McQuaid University transforms McQuaid Hall, the oldest building on campus, into an immersive haunted house experience, serving scares at the dilapidated mansion with swarms of student zombies, gallons of gag blood, and piles of plastic bones. But unfortunately, this year, visitors to McHades Hall stumble upon something unexpected—one very real murder victim... McQuaid student Kendall Fitzroy was beloved by family, friends, and her boyfriend—no one knows why anyone would want to kill her. But with the community mourning a dead co-ed, the authorities threatening to shut down the attraction, and the University standing to lose thousands in donations, it’s up to Sid, Georgia, and the entire Thackery family to scare up some clues and unmask the haunt’s true ghoul before they strike again. The third book in the Family Skeleton cozy mystery series by Agatha award-winning author Toni L. P. Kelner, writing as Leigh Perry, is sure to charm fans of Charlaine Harris and Sophie Kelly!

Check it out.” — Bill Crider
