...and regular programming comes to a screeching halt while she stares blissfully at a post dedicated entirely to Mr. Thornton's cravats.
I can't quit Jennifer Echols . Not that I really try that hard, but I read her new ones and often feel as though I'm still searching for that one in possession of that certain something that will make me feel the way Going Too Far did. Like I couldn't put it it down. And definitely like I didn't hate either of the main characters after the fact. Well, I found it with Such a Rush . I read this 300+ pager in a single night, which clears up the question of whether or not I couldn't put it down. And I finished it definitely not hating either of the main characters. I didn't finish it loving them both unreservedly, though. I loved Leah with my whole heart from page one and that never changed. My feelings regarding one of the Hall brothers remain complicated. More to come on this in a bit. On a side note, I'm delighted that Such a Rush is Ms. Echols' hardcover debut. It's a meticulously designed book, a pleasure to hold in my hands as I stayed up way
You know what's funny? I'm watching N&S right now, as we speak, for the first time. He looks just as I imagine Poe would in ten years.
ReplyDeleteYou are not. Seriously? Is it not made of the very most awesome?
ReplyDeleteAlso my brain just exploded at the thought of RA as grown-up Poe. It's too perfect. *dies*
I keep trying to get my mom to watch North and South. Seriously.
ReplyDeleteJanicu, oh man. My mom went nuts over it. I gave it to her for Christmas, we watched it, then she flew back home and watched it again. Hehe.
ReplyDeleteOh, wow. *swooning* That cravat post was...great. Thanks, Ang! Obviously I need to watch it again.
ReplyDeleteHa! Just barely post some Richard Armitage love myself. Too funny.

ReplyDeleteI love him so so much. I need to see what else he is in and then rent them all immediately.
ReplyDeletecravats have got to the sexiest thing that isn't already on a man's body ;)
ReplyDeleteHolly, *grin* I know. Anytime you want to get together and watch it, I am up for it. :)
ReplyDeleteSuey, lol, it's just that kind of day. *goofy grin*
Janssen, I know the feeling. I'm this close to breaking out the BBC Robin Hood and just giving myself over to it.
Aimee, LOL! What is it about them? I can't figure it out. But whatever it is, it's real.
Diana and Angie, I always pictured Po as Viggo Mortensen-y, but Armitage works very well too. Oh, cravats! Hawt :)
ReplyDeleteLove him!
ReplyDeleteRhiannon, Viggo, eh? I hadn't thought of him as Poe before. But Armitage is like a revelation as Poe in 10 years. lol. DH asked me last night if I really thought cravats were hot. I debated my answer and settled for nodding vigorously. ;)
ReplyDeleteJennie, what's not to love? Tall, check! Dark, check! Brooding, check! Killer smile, check!
HAHA! Thank you for the shout-out. That guy really does know how to rock a cravat. :)
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine brought your blog to my attention and I love it! Very clever and funny!
I also LOVE reading, especially young adult and fantasy like you. Have you read the Percy Jackson series? Or the Fablehaven series? (Perhaps you've already reviewed them... I haven't explored your blog entirely.) They're both fun.
Anyway, nice to "meet" you and I'll be dropping by your blog now that I've discovered it for myself. :)
