Bookish Matters

The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid.

Porn for Bibliophiles



Have you guys seen the recent Penguin Classics? They're gorgeous. Some, like the Jane Austen and Charles Dickens, make me wish I didn't already own copies so I can purchase these additions.








Some, like Anne of Green Gables, I think look great but don't fit the story inside.



Some, like Peter Pan, I would be thrilled if people would buy me for birthdays or Christmas. Hint hint.

  2. Oo, I don't think I've seen those. Maybe we haven't gotten them in to work yet.
