Narcissistic self-serving post *NM* Dark Knight Send a noteboard - 11/05/2011 06:48:12 AM
Eddings, Feist, Wurts, McCaffrey and Georgette Heyer (spot the odd one out).

It's so nice to be relaxing with easy, well-loved books. And the fact that they're all so delightful after all these years makes me very happy.

The only downside is that I have to keep buying them to fuel my nostalgia kick. It's a good thing I work in a charity bookshop...

Um. That's all.

</NSSP>

There's this cool 'thing' near where I live called, literally, The Book Thing. Every weekend, people drop off books, and people pick up books, and it's all free. It's a little warehouse filled with every type of book imaginable. I found an old book I liked but had read in ages by Paul Gallico called The Snow Goose. It smells of nostalgia. Though his 'Thomasina' is among my favorites.

But, I'm finally just going to bite the bullet and ask a question that has long plagued me: what does NSSP stand for? Seriously, wikipedia has failed to help me (Next Steps in Strategic Partnership? I think not).

I'm in the same boat with "FTW". All I can reason is "fuck the world." Panorphaeon - 11/05/2011 11:09:08 AM 926 Views

'For the Win!' is a line from a cheesy American game show called Hollywood Squares Comet Sedai - 11/05/2011 02:04:11 PM 1184 Views

Not exactly nostalgia,but I had a compulsion to start rereading Neil Gaiman last night. Stephen - 11/05/2011 05:30:20 PM 866 Views

Agree 100% Comet Sedai - 11/05/2011 08:58:24 PM 1067 Views
I was too old when I started Harry Potter for them to be considered nostalgia reading in my case. Rebekah - 11/05/2011 09:02:46 PM 876 Views
