TGIF / 32

TGIF! This week on the blog I fangirled over Jennifer Harlow and that was pretty much it. Unfortunately, real work kicked my ass, but hey, it happens. Also, I've been playing around with the format on these TGIF posts, trying to make them more aesthetically pleasing, so let me know what you think. 
 
By the way, if any of you are planning to attend D.C.'s National Book Festival tomorrow then drop me a line on Twitter and let's arrange a meet up. Hope to see you there and have a happy weekend!
