I like this site, just found it today (courtesy of Mr Handsome).

I've just spent the last ... well, far too many minutes... looking for pictures to turn into magnets to either give away or sell at the bookstore. I've made some before and they've been pretty popular. The Sexy Reader/Librarian is always a hit.


Um, 'specially with the guys. So, I thought I should find a sexy GUY reader. No joy. There is not a SINGLE pic out there in G00GLEland to find. Sheesh. I did, actually, find a couple pics of sexy dudes reading, but their pics had copyright info splattered all across their hotness.

I even looked for sexy celebs reading, hot male models reading, vintage men reading... no luck. HUMPH! Women find men who read VERY sexy! I might start asking customers to volunteer to pose. We do get some cute guys in the store. Of course, usually, they're young enough to be my son, but, whatevs.
Ok, gotta go clean the "nest" for Movie Night! "Emma" is on "Masterpiece" tonight and Book Doc is coming over to watch with us! YAY!

Nice new look! Your cats still don't have pupils, though.

I tuned into PBS last night for Emma. I'm still working on reading the book you gave me - the language is my hurdle. The tv show didn't look familiar at all - did I miss something?

Love ya!

They REALLY switched things around and changed the emphasis on characters, but it's true to the story. I found, when I first started reading Austen, that reading it fast, like normal conversation, made it "click" eventually. Otherwise, I got bogged down in the formal language, unfamiliar syntax, and different rhythms. It really is an uncomplicated story. I just love how Austen points out how silly we humans can be.
Happy Birthday, Sis!
I love you!
