The Friday Bookish Buzz: Quick Like a Bunny

Pin It

I'm going to make this a quick one, since everyone is at home today. I'm hoping to see Monsters vs Aliens sometime this weekend. Any big plans?

*Romance is alive and well in bookstores. On a side note, journalists need to stop using the words 'bodice-rippers'. No one wears a bodice anymore.

*Pride and Prejudice and Zombies publisher Quirk causes a kerfuffle in the book blogging world. Bookmaven talks to Quirk in Parts One and Two of these posts on her blog. What do you think? Why two different letters?

*I didn't know Anne Giardini author of The Sad Truth About Happiness is Carol Shields daughter.

*Remember Dewey's Read-a-Thon is next weekend, April 18.

*Etsy Love: Craft Pudding can make you a customized bookplate stamp. Very cute!

We're waiting for the Bunny this weekend. There will be chocolate. Mmmm... chocolate. Hope you have a great weekend!

  2. "No one wears a bodice anymore." Lol. That's very true. Although I kind of wish we did, just so we wouldn't have to do away with "bodice-ripper." I think it's such an animated term!

    I head about that kerfuffle, which I think was pretty well-deserve. That letter was pretty offensive, methinks.

    Can't wait for the read-a-thon!!!!
    Have a great weekend!

  4. My big plans are to chill out this weekend as much as possible before doing the whole family easter thingy. Tell us how you liked Monsters vs. Aliens after you've seen it!
