So, guess who went to the bookstore, discovered that Claudia L. Johnson's Jane Austen's Cults and Cultures had finally come out, grabbed it off the shelf, and actually did a little shimmy dance in the aisle?
*raises hand*
Oops. I don't think anyone saw, though. And I have been looking forward to this book since I saw the galleys at MLA, so I splurged and bought it. (Also, I had a frequent buyer discount saved up, and I discovered at reunion that one of my friends has never read I Capture the Castle *or* The Last Unicorn, so I was already buying books anyway.)
Still. I despair of ever being a mature person. Ah well.
