    As a teen, when I would meet up with a girl in Manhattan ( before cell phones were ubiquitous), I would always suggest meeting at a bookstore. Because if the traffic or subway made one of us late or early, there was something to pass the time. If she didn't like the idea, I took it as an ominous sign that we probably weren't a good idea.

    The Penguin Classics were my favorite for a long time, especially the ones I could carry in the back pocket of my blue jeans (obviously not War and Peace or Don Quixote - more like Selected Stories of Balzac), because beside the wonderful cover art they always included interesting introductions and helpful endnotes (rarely footnotes). However, today I just don't care and build my tbr around the main work regardless of the publisher, editor [even the translator, really], typesetter, etc. Keep in mind though for several months in my 20s I travelled everywhere with my huge Bevington Shakespeare. I can only guess its weight but certainly more than a large cat.

    Okay, I like Carolyn because she was talking about Russian lit, but now I know why I like Emmie. Because my only family playmate as a kid was Chrissy who was 8 years older than me and she'd always correct my pronunciation. Of course she'd also spin me or get on all fours and let me ride her like a horse as an elementary kid and who could hate that. My other three siblings were older and thus would not play like that with me.
    Ruth would tickle torture me to keep me at bay. An evil task of tickling a person until they couldn't breathe. She was 10 years older and thus above fun and stuff like that. Sort of like the difference between Lucy and Susan of Narnia.
