0053 | in which I express my adoration for both Jane Austen & Harry Potter
► Today's topic is the (delightfully?) vague Unapologetic Fangirl For. Is it referring to authors? Series? Genres? Tropes? Who knows!
However, I do know the first two things that popped into my mind: 1) Jane Austen, and 2) the Harry Potter series. Which... do not have much in common, outside the fact that I feel ridiculously protective over both. I do think that Jane Austen's novels are technically much better written than Harry Potter, but I adore both, and both give me that same, knee-jerk "Blasphemy!" reaction whenever I hear about someone who doesn't like them.
► Today, I got the (hopefully) last of my Christmas shopping done! ♥ I probably overspent on my mom, but she deserves it, so I'm not going to worry about it. Unfortunately, between that and my getting caught up in reading The Domesday Book by Connie Willis for the first time, that meant that I neither played more of Dragon Age: Awakening nor did I work on Yuletide treats. We'll see how tomorrow goes.
