I've actually seen Jenny Lawson's book in the store ... but I'm trying to avoid buying hardbacks.
I did, however, knowing her love of taxidermied animals, send her a link to a story about The Famous Tommy Tucker (a squirrel, rasised by a woman, who'd dress him up and take him around). He's spending eternity dressed in pink satin and pearls (he wore dresses because tail + pants = problems).
good grief. I think I posted that in the wrong thread!
I was a mite confused but thought maybe it was somehow relevant because of F U, Penguin. Somehow.
I just finished
Timeless
! I think I know what Jilli is gleebling about!
I liked it more than the last two, to my surprise. I thought I was just reading out of inertia (although I do enjoy the books), but I felt an unexpected fondness for the characters and the world.

EEEEEEEee!
IVY IS A VAMPIRE QUEEN!
Pete is finally reading it, and when he read the bit about
the play, he said "Oh, that's why you're happy, because Ivy played a vampire queen in that ridiculous production".
Ha, no! It's better than that!
Also,
OMG BIFFY AND LYALL!
I want to draw sparkly hearts around them.
I also want more of Lord Akeldama's adventures in parenting, because I love how he dotes on Prudence.
I was sorry
Ivy didn't stay in Egypt, because I like the idea of "Ivy, Queen of the Desert." Vampire millinery will never be the same.
Prudence was a delight. I also really enjoyed all the science!! Well, you know "science"!! I appreciate a scientifically curious heroine.
I want all the stories of
Ivy's reign as the Vampire Queen of London!
I especially want to know what Lord Akeldama's reaction to it.
I just read a sneaked copy of the final Montmaray book and cried.
'suela, I would love to read such a copy! I have just finished the second book and WANT MOAR NOW!
