The Book Made Me Do It
The other day a friend asked if there was anything a book had ever influenced you to do? As in, let’s say you were taking a trip to London. Have all of those Regencies made you want to see Vauxhall? Or Covent Garden? How about those Scottish Romances? Did you buy your man (or self!) a kilt? Well, my answer is a lot less normal and incredibly embarrassing.
In my teens, I was all about the Harlequin categories. I devoured them. I was in the subscription service and I was obsessed with the Australian Outback romances. There was one in particular....I wish I could find the book for you, I really do. But here goes. I was so in love with one book that I bought the outfit the heroine was wearing.
In my mind I was this adventurous heroine who would one day meet her rugged Australian hero and Chris Hemsworth, uh I mean, the random man who had no resemblance whatsoever to any actors, would sweep me off my feet.
In reality? I probably looked like a camp counselor or a zookeeper. A lot less sexy heroine, and a lot more Crocodile Hunter.
So how about you? Has a book ever influenced you to do something?
I'm a bit obsessed with Jamie Fraser from Outlander so I have a lot of Outlander clothes. I pretend to be Claire so I can get Jamie. I'm such a dork. Lol. :) But I really love my Claire riding coat.
ReplyDeleteNothing wrong with that! Besides, it's a fabulous coat!
