let's judge some books by their covers

Yesterday afternoon Stella was taking a nap at my parents' house, so Mom said to go ahead and go out and take some time for myself. I decided to go to the nearby Barnes and Noble and drink some coffee and browse. I thought it would be fun to take some pictures...

Here is the expansive diet section. I actually saw a book about dieting for petite people. Pretty sure petite and non-petite people lose weight the same way. (The author lays out an argument to the contrary, but he is basically capitalizing on the specialize-anything-to-different-demographics-and-types-of-people niche). People can write pretty much anything nowadays and get published.

If I could do it all over again, I think I would have majored in Psychology. I find the inner workings of the mind to be utterly fascinating. I also think we need more Christians in this field.

I get warm, fuzzy feelings when I see anything Calvin and Hobbes. Love those books!

 America: where people treat their pets like royalty.

Understanding Your Cat (don't worry, dog lovers, there was an Understanding Your Dog book, too)

Cooking for Your Cat

Don't you just love this cover? The gradually fading Joels just crack me up.

Kitschy fun for your coffee table.

 This looks really interesting.

B&N, do you really have to add toys to the mix? Anyway, the Star Wars stuff is always cool.

Anyone else read the I SPY books growing up?

Okay, I just thought this sign was cute. That's all. There is no hidden meaning or anything to this picture. You can move on now.

The next few years, this will be the theme of my life. No, not an announcement. This is just my life right now. I love gathering information about pregnancy and child development.

After doing all that browsing, I experienced some major reading fever. I haven't read any novels in a long time just because I have so many other things to get done, but I would really like to return to reading. Reading anything interesting or entertaining recently?
