"Morgause" makes me think of "morgue"

Damn, that would have been good to incorporate to the sentence. "This scent smelled of old woman. It was the sort of scent that reminds one of a morgue full of old women... dead old women. Do I need to continue?"

Next time, I will be more clever.

It sounds like most of these were from the "Flowers in the Attic" collection.
You should have tried "WOULD YOU LIKE A COOKIE, Mother!?!"
Hints of incest and arsenic layered over a ghostwriter's recycled storylines. I hear the Olsen twins are fans!

Yay for reviews. I trust your refined nose not to steer me wrong.

I'm sort of hoping that BPAL will do a Flowers in the Attic collection.

"Young girl hooks up with older but not that old 'uncle' but it's okay because she is adopted"
Orange juice spiked with vodka, teen spirit (the purple kind), mixed with the smell of an 87 trans am.

"The hick family log cabin burns down again"
Wafts of fatback catching alight on the open hearth, the scent of 18 burning children, with a hint of grandpa's whittling.

"The Boarding School"
Can you smell the rose perfume of the good twin (not like the hussy freesia the bad twin wears)? Notice the essence of whip of matron's leather switch. A backnote of gym closet is reminiscent of that one time with the young, handsome errand boy.

OMG, I read way too many of these.

I am laughing my ass off ovahee!
We really should propose this line to Bpal.
We could make insipid commercials where people whisper "self loathing and incest...by VC Andrews" over sienna tone footage of a clown making balloon animals.

Why didn't we go into marketing?

Yes, I'm very interested. What is the best way to send you list and sweet, sweet moneys?

You can just post the list here or email it to me - let me know if you don't have my email address. As for monies - depends on how many you want, so send me the list and we'll work it out, if that's ok with you.

I will preface this by saying my etiquette can be poor. If I'm listing too many, please let me know and I will pare it down to what is a more reasonable number. If this is acceptable, I know that shipping will be more. Also, I think I have a paypal account, check, or whatever is acceptable for you.

I don't have your email, so here's the list:

4 Autumn
4 Autumn Coolness
4 Bilquis
4 The Blockhead
4 Chant D'Automne
4 Ghastly Garden
4 Ivanushka
4 Nowhere in Particular
4 Red Lantern
4 Thalassa, the Galapagos Mermaid
4 Wilhelmina Murray
2 Lucretia
2 Macbeth and the Witches
2 Madame Tracy
2 Peacock Queen 2007
2 shivering boy
2 Spirits of the Dead
2 The Tell-Tale Heart
2 Black Forest
2 Death on a Pale Horse
2 Ephemera
2 House of Night
2 Marie
2 tavern of hell
2 Wings of Azrael
2 wolfsbane
2 zombi
76

WRATH
dragon's blood spiked with black pepper, clove, and cinnamon
It smells like powder on me. I guess wrath is a big vat of talcum.

Thats probably what my wrath smells like too.

I suppose there are worse things that your wrath could smell like. How've you been?

it's totally addicting. i've been forcing myself to behave.

i really liked sybaris. it had a nice and not too strong violet scent.

how's the makeup collection going?
