    on Love on the Spectrum, Austen Style
    I really enjoyed this one. I was particularly amused at Lady Catherine deBoutgh’s disgust at her assassin’s incompetence.

    on The Kiss Quotient: Reverse, diverse Pretty Woman.
    This book helped me realize how very specific my pet peeves could be in relation to how people refer to...
