Friday Bookish Buzz: Quarantine Edition

funny cat pictures - Lolcats: Shakespeare Cat

Can’t say I’m sad to see the end of this week. First, my daughter came down with the flu, then a few days later, my husband. He seems to have the worst of it. The Girl bounced back quickly, it’s taking him a lot longer. It’s the sickest I’ve seen them both though. So far, I’m okay and I hope it stays that way!

*Get a Katniss Barbie Doll. I would buy this. If you want regular Barbie Katnissed up, here’s a DIY bow and arrow from My Froggy Stuff.

*JK Rowling reveals The Casual Vacancy.

*Who will direct Catching Fire?

*Old, smelly books. What’s up with that?

*What’s going on with the Department of Justice and bunch of publishers? Don’t know? Me neither but Smart Bitches has some links for you to use to puzzle it out.

*Remember how the Nova Scotia libraries were boycotting Random House? Well, it’s spreading.

*Ben H Winters’s Bedbugs heading for a theatre near you. (I’m reading this right now and it’s creepy!)

*Etsy Love: Okay, so it’s not exactly book related, but the model wearing the Edith Pinafore by Alice Nightingale is surrounded by books.

I hope you all stay healthy and get to go reading in the park like Edith. Winking smile

  1. Great links! I have to say, I was underwhelmed by the description for The Casual Vacancy. Maybe it'll surprise me!

  2. Oh, yuck, sounds like some vicious flu. I actually had some time to myself yesterday after the guy being home for almost 2 weeks. I was a bit overwhelmed with what I was going to do with all that time! haha

  3. I hope everyone is feeling better now. Having to take care of both of them with the flu has to be exhausting. I hope you are able to get some rest!

    I definitely want Katniss Barbie too. FInally a Barbie that kicks butt!
