I want one of those book purses so bad!
So there is something I can do, besides scream like a woman?

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I cannot justify buying the Dracula purse, I cannot justify buying the Dracula purse, I cannot justify buying the Dracula purse.
If I keep saying that, do you think I'll eventually stop wanting the Dracula purse?

I'm now seriously considering the Jane Eyre purse for myself.

Sadly, this is a very true statement.

Jane Eyre is one of my sister's favorite books: I'm very tempted to buy this for her. But she's not really a novelty-purse kind of person. I'm not sure.

Did you guys looks through the ones listed in the feedback? There's a Madeline one that is so adorable! And I totally want the Deathly Hollows one!
eta: I'm not a novelty purse kind of person either, but I LOVE books, which is why I would make an exception for these novelty purses.

Because books.
I keep thinking I should just figure out how to make one, but between materials and frustration, it has to be cheaper just to buy the thing. The Jane Eyre, to be specific. WANT.

Speaking of books that are wanted, when I was in Vegas last weekend, I had some free time to do some window shopping at the Venetian. So, of course, my first choice for a store to check out was the rare book store. I am in a severe case of WANT for the first edition of Helen Keller's My Life signed by her.
It was $16,000.
I still WANT, but know I cannot afford.
Sigh.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I'm coming in late on the HP discussion, but for some reason, I do not judge Snape as harshly as I judge Dumbledore. I really developed a hate on for Dumbledore after his discussion with Harry re: the horcruxes.
Some of Snape's behavior could be explained away by his needing to seem like an asshole to preserve his status with Voldy's crew. However, Dumbledore using HP to locate Voldemort and not telling him even part of the truth along the way really got to me.
Harry showed such loyalty to Dumbledore always, and Dumbledore really didn't to Harry except to serve his own purposes. This really bothered me.
