And my next book is Jane Eyre. When I read it, I kept imagining all the actors' voices as the characters. Particularly Mrs. Bennet's (from the miniseries).  Oh Jane Eyre. I had to read that last spring for my literature class. In which my professor ruined it. Which bummed me out because it was finally a book that seemed like it would be enjoyable.  Now on to, "Break No Bones" by Kathy Reichs. Tempe Brennan novels = WIN. They have the miniseries at Best Buy. I'll have to go buy it now.
How did your professor ruin it? _________________

Yes. You do need to buy it. It's so great.
Oh I don't know, I suppose he put way too much meaning into everything. That's why I've never been one to study literature because I don't need to know why an author wrote what they wrote. Because to be honest, I don't think they put much second/hidden meanings into things. I mean I'm sure they do on occasion, but not everything needs to be analysed. And then we read Wide Sargasso Sea - which is from the perspective of Bertha, and TOTALLY ruined the whole book for me. If I'd read Jane Eyre on my own, and never knew about WSS, I think I would've loved it. _________________ "So what? So plenty!"

Twenties Girl - Sophie Kinsella.
I sat at Starbucks and laughed so hard that one of the baristas came and asked me what had happened. Really funny, really witty, and really amazingly brain-atropheing. Yay!

^Oh yeah! That was my first thought when I heard there was going to be a demon named Crowley.

^Good news for us that he is in fact based off Good Omens Crowley. He worries about his carpet for Satan's sake and he's trying to stop the Apocalypse and he's in SALES. It screams Good Omens (especially the carpet part.)
