  1. Aside from being a fun photoshoot, this actually sums up the way two different people read the same book two different ways very well. 🙂
    (I remembered how my friend introduced me to her new copy of The Graveyard Book – before I got mine – and I laughed at the first sentence, because it was so perfectly Gaimanian. And she was rather shocked that I laughed at something so serious… In retrospect, so was I; but it’s my usual reaction to laugh at something in a book that, for lack of a better word, makes sense.)

    And wow, there’s actually a stone bench for ladies to sit on? Such a perfect spot. That first photo looks… possibly like something I would laugh at in a book. 🙂

  2. You can’t beat a good book. Hopefully this new post means you’re feeling better.
