BOOK SNOB WARNING

I was at Barnes & Noble at the checkout counter and the cashier lady says to me, 'Do you read Twilight?'

I was buying:
Jane Eyre
Other Voices, Other Rooms

this made me laugh a lot for some reason.

i think it is because i was picturing you at the counter...and you just slapped her.

and then it replayed in my mind a few times.

the covers of those books, literally, make me sick to my stomach. i can't imagine actually opening one of them.

I don't understand the obsession with Twilight. I've gathered that it's about a vampire, but then I saw the promos for the movie and he looks ridiculously creepy. It is confusing to me that this pale dead-looking guy is the same person that is getting all of the "OMG EDWARD DLKFJDLFJEKJ HAVE MY BAAAABIES" bumper stickers on Facebook.

I wish I could have seen your face when she said that. Priceless.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

You + her solar plexus y/n?

Jane Eyre ASDAGHFD. I was at a book store this past summer and I swear to god it was this dingy, dank little shithole filled with books from corner to corner. If it weren't six hours away, I'd probably live there or work there.

I managed to find a copy of Jane Eyre that is all old (maybe circa the 1960's?) and amazing looking and the pages are yellow, and for me that is the best thing ever.
