i am completely and utterly obvious. i’m still trying to figure out if i’m okay with that.
Coming back from lunch and a walk on the beach yesterday, I popped into B&N to browse a bit. I don’t believe in love-at-first, you know, but I fell. I fell hard.
Sitting on the corner of a random table with a ‘$25 and under gift’ sign were a few of the coveted Penguin Classics collection designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith, eight of which were just released here in the states. I couldn’t quite remember exactly where I’d read about her and the beautiful editions. (♥:design*sponge) I just stood there for a few minutes, touching them. And in my head, thankfully, I purred, “Mmmm, pretty.”

Then, on the way to the section I was supposed to be in, I saw an endcap that had me at H-H-Hello. Oh, Melville House, what are you doing to me?
I guess the first two hurdles are behind us. I noticed and now, I want. The whole obtaining thing is going to be a challenge. I’m going to play hard to get. I said I was obvious, not easy.
