Hello and welcome to the penultimate chapter of the Literal Booker Legacy!

Let’s read on and find out!

The Literal Booker Legacy - The Spares: Waters, Alcott, & Joyce

The Literal Booker Legacy - The College Years: Part 1, Anything Goes

Hello and welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy!

We’re coming very close to the end! I’m being a little lax on the kids’ studies and free time so they can do whatever they want to do! Are you prepared for some hijinks!?

Let’s read on and see how our three Booker kids cope with college life.

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 9, Chapter 5: You Make me Feel so Young

Spoiler-y title card is spoiler-y.

Welcome back to the Literal Booker Legacy. This is the last official chapter of the generation, following the usual 2 college chapters before the epilogue.

And yes, there is an heir poll at the end (so I hope you know who you're voting for!).

Let's begin!

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 9, Chapter 4: Hold me Closer, Tiny Dancer

So, remember when I said in the previous chapter that this one would be the last...

Yeah. I didn't realise how many photos I would take between then and now so there's actually another chapter after this!

Anyway, so far in this generation, Dante and Phil got married and had 3 wonderful boys, Murakami, Kwan, and Kim.

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 9, Chapter 3: Full House

Oh, hello!

Welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy! We're very close to the end now and Dante and Phil has cursed I mean blessed me three boys this generation!

I want to thank you all for sticking with me and reading all of my updates and leaving great comments! I honestly crack up reading your reactions to my stuff. You guys make these last 2 and a bit years worth it so, again, thank you.

The Literal Booker Legacy - The Spares: Alcott & Joyce

So, let's see who owns this... magnificent... house?

The Literal Booker Legacy - The College Years: Part 2, Stargazers

Hello and welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy!

This is the final chapter of Generation 8 and after this we'll be moving onto Joyce and Alcott's stories and then officially starting Generation 9! Can you believe we've come this far already? I can't!

When we last left Tes and Dante, both were having success at college, garnering GPAs of 4.0's each. Tes was being her wild child self and living her romance aspiration fantasy and Dante was getting close to a classmate of his, which ended up concluding in a sudden kiss. 

Let's see where things go from here!

The Literal Booker Legacy - The College Years: Part 1, The Smell of Freedom

Hello and welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy!

The college chapters were kinda difficult for me to put out because I've picked up a new hobby, cross sitching, and I've kinda just been obsessed with doing it and watching RuPaul's Drag Race in the background, and if I'm not cross stitching, I'm watching k-dramas.

I apologise for the wait and I hope you enjoy this chapter!

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 8, Chapter 4: Moving On

Welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy!

This is the last chapter of the 8th generation before they go to college! How exciting!

I am also putting an heir poll up for this generation because I am genuinely torn between who to pick as heir. I'm leaving the choice up to you, lovely readers <3

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 8, Chapter 3: Best Friends

Hello and welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy!

Previously, Christie and Blair got married, my game imploded, everyone was rebuilt and a few elder Bookers were killed off unceremoniously to get back those platinum graves, Christie then gave birth to two kids: Waters and Dante.

Let's read on!

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 8, Chapter 2: Closer

Welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy!

Previously we lost all of my progress due to corruption and had to start over again. Nothing of total importance was completely lost, we still have our Booker graves and our heir portraits and Eliot and Christie are still intact.

When we left the last chapter, Christie was about ready to pop her first gen 8 baby out!

Let’s continue to see who our potential heir or heiress could be!

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 8, Chapter 1: Ch-ch-changes!

Welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy! We are finally at generation 8!

A quick recap for everyone:

So, Yvonne Booker was our beloved founder and she married her college sweetheart, Andrea Benson. They had two daughters, Wynne (Diana Wynne Jones) and Austen (Jane Austen).

Austen was chosen as heiress and she married her high school sweetheart, Cherry Tan. Together they had four children: Bronte (The Bronte Sisters – Emily, Charlotte, Anne), Hardy (Thomas Hardy), Lawrence (D.H. Lawrence), and Atwood (Margaret Atwood).

Bronte and Atwood were tied at the heir poll and Bronte was ultimately chosen by me. Bronte ruled her generation singlehandedly, giving birth to Ellis (Bret Easton Ellis) and Shelley (Mary Shelley).

 I chose Shelley as heiress and she married her high school sweetheart, Heath Butler, and they had three children: Angelou (Maya Angelou), Morrison (Toni Morrison), and Baldwin (James Baldwin).

Baldwin won the heir poll, becoming the first male heir of the legacy! Baldwin married Serdar Shaikh, who he met at college, and they produced the first all-male generation – Dickens (Charles Dickens) and Wilde (Oscar Wilde). Unfortunately both Wilde and Dickens were face clones but Wilde won the heirship anyway.

Wilde married Lilly Do after having difficulty in finding a wife. Together, Wilde and Lilly brought another four Bookers into the legacy: Gaiman (Neil Gaiman), Eliot (George Eliot), Du Maurier (Daphne du Maurier), and Ryman (Geoff Ryman), the only alien to appear in the legacy so far.

Eliot won the heirship poll by a landslide and she married her college beau, Bruce Shweber. They had three children, Joyce (James Joyce), Alcott (Louisa May Alcott), and Christie (Agatha Christie).

Which brings us to this chapter, introducing Christie Booker and her fiancé, Blair Thorne, as they return back to the house to bring in generation 8. Are you ready?

Let’s go!

The Literal Booker Legacy - The Spares, Part 2: Ellis, Hardy, Lawrence, & Atwood

Welcome back to the Literal Booker Legacy, the spares edition!

This time we're focusing on Ellis and his twin sons, Hardy and his three grown-up children, Lawrence and his grown up twins, and Atwood and her adult daughter!

Onwards!

The Literal Booker Legacy - The Spares, Part 1: Gaiman, Du Maurier, Ryman, Dickens, Angelou, & Morrison

Hello and welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy: Spares edition!

Let's get on with this drama-filled chapter!

The Literal Booker Legacy - The College Years: Part 1, I Want You

Hello and welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy! Today's chapter title is brought to you by SHINee's 2018 hit, I Want You (The title track on one out of four albums they sold that year!!), not the Savage Garden song of the same name (which is actually my favourite song of all time LOLOL).

I've been on a SHINee binge lately, even listening to their newest album despite the fact it's still difficult to listen to them as a four. I've been listening to them whilst I sim and whilst I write and edit chapters, and edit photos. 

I still miss Jonghyun a lot. Ha. A lot.

Anyway, enough sadness, this chapter is nothing but light-hearted so let's enjoy!

I also hope you guys are staying safe during this pandemic.

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 7, Chapter 3: So Goodbye, Don't Cry, and Smile

Hello and welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy. Today's chapter title is taken from Jonghyun's OST song from City Hunter called So Goodbye.

I won't link it because just looking at the video on youtube brings me to tears but unfortunately, I was in a bit of a miserable mood writing this chapter, so the title alone should tell you about what happens in this chapter.

With that foreboding warning, let's get on with the chapter.

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 7, Chapter 2: And Then There Were Three...

Hello and welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy!!

I hope you are all staying safe through this outbreak! If you're self-isolating, try to keep yourself occupied to prevent stir-craziness! (Like in TS3 when your sims were in their houses too long? Man, I kinda miss that kinda thing about TS3, it's a shame the game's super buggy on my laptop ;;)

Previously: Eliot and Bruce became the next reigning couple and had a back-yard wedding. Immediately afterwards, Eliot discovered she was expecting their first child... Which turned out to be children as I am riddled with twins. She gave birth to a boy, Joyce (James Joyce) and Alcott (Louisa May Alcott).

When we left, Eliot was expecting her third and final child! Shall we continue with the story and see what happens this time?

Let's read on!

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 7, Chapter 1: For the Sake of It

Hello and welcome back to the Literal Booker Legacy!

Previously, Wilde and Lilly eloped after having a big argument. They then proceeded to have a happy marriage and brought three children into the legacy together: Gaiman, Eliot, and Du Maurier. Wilde was then abducted and brought in the fourth Booker of the generation: Ryman.

Eliot was voted heiress by popular vote and got engaged to her sweetheart, Bruce Schweber. 

Now, we begin Eliot and Bruce's reign of the legacy. Shall we see what happens?

Also, take note of how many times they argue over the whole generation. You'll be surprised (or not. You know what Eliot's like).

The Literal Booker Legacy - The Spares: Dickens, Angelou, Morrison, Ellis, Hardy, Lawrence, & Atwood

Welcome back to the Literal Booker Legacy but this time it's the spares!

That's the full title. LBLbttitS!

Doesn't it look sad to not see Wynne's name on there anymore? I know I'm upset by this. However, sims lives move quicker than ours, otherwise, the game wouldn't be much fun! 

Shall we start this update with Dickens and his adorable face-one fiance Mitch?

The Literal Booker Legacy - The College Years: Part 2, Unexpected Circumstances

Title is exactly what it says. 

Is the picture relevant? No, I just think it's really funny.

Hello and welcome back to the Literal Booker Legacy.

There's been a shakeup. And if you've been keeping up with the heir poll you'll know exactly what it is.

Well, I won't beat around the bush, let's go meet our winning Booker!

The Literal Booker Legacy - The College Years: Part 1, Is It Casual?

Hello and welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy! We are the college point, my friends! Nothing but unadulterated chaos. What can happen… will happen! Let’s see what unfolds, shall we?

Also this chapter’s title was taken from Doja Cat’s Casual.

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 6, Chapter 5: My Homeworld

Welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy, the legacy where I slowly start to lose my mind.

Previously: Wilde and Lilly got married in secret and brought twins into the world, Gaiman and Eliot, named after Neil Gaiman and George Eliot. They then brought another baby into the world, a girl called Du Maurier after Daphne du Maurier and then Wilde was abducted and impregnanted with the final boy, Ryman, named for Geoff Ryman. After which we lost Baldwin and Serdar, the first male heir and mlm (men loving men) pairing to rule the legacy.

Shall we continue the story to see how the family continues?

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 6, Chapter 4: Patience

Welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy where I am twenty-five and slowly going grey from these sims!

Previously, Serdar passed on and both Wilde and Lilly brought two more children into the generation: Lilly gave birth to a daughter, Du Maurier (named after Daphne du Maurier) and Wilde birthed an alien son called Ryman (after Geoff Ryman). This chapter will be full of trials and tribulations so let’s not mess around and start the chapter!

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 6, Chapter 3: Countless Reasons

Welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy! We’ve officially brought Generation six! *pulls party popper*

This chapter's title is taken from the SHINee song Countless. Give it a listen, it's beautiful and heartwarming and also a little emotional when you read the lyrics and put it against context but anyway... 

Previously, Wilde, named after Oscar Wilde, married his love, Lilly Do, on a secret getaway to the mountains and conceived their first two children, twins Gaiman and Eliot, named after Neil Gaiman and George Eliot.

I have unsuccessfully attempting to get Wilde abducted but have since resigned. Will there be an abduction this chapter or will there just be more sim babies? Let’s read on to find out!

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 6, Chapter 2: Double Trouble

Hello and welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy!

Previously Wilde invited his belle to move into the main house but things quickly grew rocky between them. Lilly, fearing that Wilde was taking advantage of her meekness, confronted him and was treated to a romantic getaway – just the two of them. There, in the starlight of The Three Lakes, Wilde and Lilly said their vows and became the next couple to reign the Booker Legacy.

Lilly, now feeling a little queasy, likely from the food, has to deal with the egnimatic family that she is now a part of.

The Literal Booker Legacy - Generation 6, Chapter 1: Under the Stars

Hello and welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy! We are on an exciting chapter folks. This chapter marks the start of the sixth generation! Only four generations remain!

Let’s have a little recap before we begin:

Wilde and Dickens went to college where it was revealed that Wilde was voted heir. Dickens met the love of his life in Mitch Gothier whereas Wilde was having a difficult time finding a girlfriend. In the end, he found a wife in the form of Lilly Do, a lady he met online (except not really but let’s pretend for the sake of the story). Wilde proprosed to Lilly and then graduated and now… here we are.

The Literal Booker Legacy - The Spares: Angelou, Morrison, Ellis, Hardy, Lawrence, Atwood, & Wynne

Helloooo! Welcome to the Booker Spares update!

We have a lot to cover so buckle up folks, it's gonna be a bumpy ride!

Let's start off with Everivory's new residents, Angelou and Shannon, and Morrison and Lisa!

The Literal Booker Legacy - The College Years: Part 2, Water Under the Bridge

Hello and welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy!

Previously we joined Dickens and our heir, Wilde, at college. Dickens met the love of his life, Mitch, but Wilde remained single. Will he be successful this time?

The Literal Booker Legacy - The College Years: Part 1, Exuberant

Hello and welcome back to The Literal Booker Legacy! I apologise immensely for my short hiatus. My mother was hospitalised and I quit my job and a lot of things just sort of built up. Anyway, long story short, my mum is better now and I’m finding the balance between the things I want to do and the things I need to do.

Shall we have a little recap before we continue?

Baldwin married Serdar and the two had identical (not twins) boys, Dickens and Wilde. Dickens, the elder, left for college first with Wilde following soon after.
