What a Flipping Idiot, I am........


OhMyWord......LOLOL......Ever been in a bookstore....in a hurry....you see a book sitting on the shelf that Really attracts your attention? I have...I grabbed it, looked the cover over Really well...flipped it over and read the summary...decided it was going to be a fun little romance...fantasy, and ran to the checkout. Getting home I throw it over into the "books to be read" place, and I go on about my business! That was probably about two weeks ago. Last night, I'm ready for my fun little Fantasy....LOLOLOL....ohmyGod......SLUT!!!.Hahahahaha..I don't think I even made it to page fifteen before my gut instincts were screaming at me to THROW IT AWAY!!! Did I listen???.......So, I flip to the middle of the book and start reading.....GEEZ....slammed it shut! I actually looked around the room making Sure no one saw me!!! I haven't done That since I was a kid, for cripes sake!! How could this BE? ME!! Loosing my mind and buying one of "those" books?? Where Was it? How did this happen?? I broke my Own cardinal rule!! I bought the book because of the cover....It's really beautiful...but it's Absolute, Trash....filth.....I'm so embarrassed I can't even take it back to the bookstore!! I grab the book back up to see what I MUST have missed on the cover....there it is...bottom right hand side of the cover...a small critique of the book by Romance Junkies (geezzz...that's a tip-off) Fairyville by Emma Holly..."the queen of erotic romance"....LOLOL.....Right! Like I'm taking This back and having to hand it over to the pimply, horned rim eye-glassed teenager, that sold it to me in the First place...with a grin on his face, that I Didn't understand, the first time around!! And you don't EVEN want to know what was on the last two pages.....Hahahahahaha......not really....it's now in the secret trash can....in a secret trash bag with NO LABEL....waiting for the TRASH pick-up men.....oh my WORD, I hope they don't find it.....LOLHahahaha.....night all!

Funny! I steer clear of the romance novels, so I didn't even know they had erotic ones, too! Dang! No wonder so many women read those things! :)

hahaha!


This is funny!

I remember coming across some such books in my early years of reading...when I didn't know better and would pick up any book I came in contact with! I've always been a reader, since about age 11 or so.

Lol-I don't even like the honey -sweet romance novels these days! (lol-seem a little phony to me!)
