I AM HEARTING IVY03 WITH A PASSION!!!

[trinityvixen]

I own The Serenity Visual Companion and the movie novelization, and I got them for 20% off thanks to her coupons. I got them thanks to my cousin Lisa who miraculously found the novelization hiding in a corner far away from any sort of order either of us could fathom. I ::heart:: her with a mighty passion, too.

I also picked up a hardcover edition of Dune, the paperback I bought originally having been vanished somewhere, methinks viridian's possession, last I saw of it, and a bound edition of Scary Stories, More Scary Stories, and Scary Stories 3. It's a series of books I bought in paperback at book fairs in elementary school, and now I've got all of them. They have truly disgusting, horrific pictures. I'm looking forward to browsing it when I can get my nose out of my Serenity stuffs.

Because, really, there's no place that I could be...

You're very welcome.

The Scary Stories books were the bane of my existence in grade school. They were very popular in my school, and the drawings gave me nightmares for years. There was one in particular that, even when briefly glimpsed while thumbing through the book, would give me a physical, visceral jolt, like being kicked in the stomach. I hated those drawings so much, and they were so hard to avoid. I'd always run from Adam Saltzberg at recess because he'd be toting one of those books.

This was all the more traumatizing because I loved ghost stories, and loved the stories in those books particularly, but just couldn't get past the illustrations.

Those scary story books were fantastic, and some of the imagery bugs me to this day.

The best parts were actually the folkloric notes at the end *shudder*
