Gabrielle Zevin, Events and Such

Does Anyone Remember When No One Blogged? What did we used to do with our time? Hulahooping, I believe. And reading books. Does anyone remember books? They were on paper. You remember paper, right? It could cut you, and you used to fold it into animal shapes. Origami, we called it. Man, I loved that stuff! So that's another thing I used to do before I started this blog. Hulahooping, origami, and reading. Nothing that important, I guess. By the way, my name is Gabrielle Zevin and I write.

adventures in self-googling #3: lip gloss

Apparently, Swedish Memoirs comes with lip gloss.

Although I can't say for certain, I believe that this is my first book to come with cosmetic freebies.

~~(P.S. Anyone know the translation of Jag minns inte varför jag älskar dig?)~~

Thanks to all (and by all, I mean, readers Laura, Sara, and my mom) who wrote (despite the fact that I turned off comments) to say that the Swedish title translates to I Don't Remember Why I Love You. Sara intriguingly reports that there is no Swedish word for AMNESIAC. I find myself wondering what they call Amnesia in Sweden? Perhaps, the Disease of Forgetting Which Happens Rarely in Life But Often as Plot Contrivance in Popular Entertaiments?
