That's pretty much how things look at my house, only replace the cat with a girl.

*Etsy Love: For Alice In Wonderland fans Follow the White Rabbit bookmark from HModine.
*Finally, first there was Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, now there's Sense and Sensibilty and Sea Monsters. Check out the trailer:
I must say...I'm SO excited about Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters :p I own PPZ but haven't read it yet..
ReplyDeleteI have GOT to read Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, just so I can read Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters!
ReplyDeleteMy kid is a big Miley fan, I'm sure we'll be seeing that movie!
My son was just telling me about the stink with British authors yesterday so I was glad to read that article. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI rea P&P&Z and loved it, but S&S&SM is by a different author, so I wonder if it'll be as good.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to read the last Anne of Green Gables book, although after spending last summer reading L.M. Montgomery's heartrending diaries, I'm not sure I'm ready for it yet.
I LOVE the Alice in Wonderland bookmark! You always find such cool things on Etsy :)
ReplyDeleteNoooo, not sea monsters! lol.
ReplyDeleteThere are days I feel like that cat.
Interesting regarding Miley and Wings.
ReplyDeleteAnd I just don't get the thing with the zombies and sea monsters mixing it up with Jane Austen stuff.
I'm not thrilled with the Miley casting. I like her, but she's not at all what I pictured for Laurel.
ReplyDeleteHmmm... that book trailer is certainly interesting, but I'm still not exactly sure what I think about the concept of the "turn classic literature into supernatural adventures" trend. I should really read them first, but I just love Austen so much, I don't know if I'll enjoy seeing her novels turned extremely silly.
