bookshelves: to-read

The fact that she's married to W touts her herculean patience and strong motherly instincts much better than any memoir.

David The woman can sure the hell flip up a collar. She looks very Star Fleet.

Ademption She's channeling the Evil Queen in Snow White; the latter being a decent will-to-power, DIY role model.

David Laura Bush to Blouse Collar:

I'm going to flip the fucking shit out of you, you stupid fucking whore.

Blouse Collar to Laura Bush:

Oh yeah? Well, at least I don't have a golden age John Davidson haircut, you redneck Eva Braun.

Laura Bush to Laura Bush:

She's right...! Oh, my god... she's right!

Blouse Collar to Hunting Rifle:

Oh no... She's talking to herself again...

Ademption I picture Laura looking at herself in a silvery mirror while this dialogue takes place. Also, the rifle and collar both have little faces and their voices are distinctly different in pitch from Laura's, to better separate them out as talking objects with their own personalities.

Ademption She might also have crows and harts attending her toilet. Whatever is the opposite of bluebirds and deer.

Lobstergirl Do we need to read the memoir if we already read Curtis Sittenfeld's novel? I feel like that pretty much covered everything.


message 8: by Ademption (new) - added it

Ademption I think you just need to vote for this review, Lobstergirl. It'll complete your research on Laura.


message 9: by David (new)

David My autobiography will be called Spoken from the Sphincter: The True, Real-Life, No-Fibbing Story of How One Man Learned to Do His Own Taxes and Love Again.

Ademption 2 votes in nearly 24 hours. This has been quite a votewhoring failure. I swear that my next review shall be both pithy and stupid enough to garner mass appeal.

David Here's part of the problem, Evan. I've noticed you have quite a few douchebags on your friends list... you know, the kind of worthless dead weight types that won't help you score a blockbuster review. If I were you, I'd cut them loose* and do a fact-finding mission... Snoop around GR to see who votes a lot and then climb all over their (proverbial) jocks.


* I'm willing to provide you with a list of suggestions. That's how much I care.

That's really sweet. I'll keep plugging along with my plucky canuck-do attitude though, even if it just has me circling the voting drain. Not all of us can be Jason Pettus.

Esteban del Mal I want to make it clear my vote was for David's "redneck Eva Braun" comment.
