What else is in her library, do you suppose?

My fabulous friend LyndaLove is gorgeous, funny as hell and a rockstar of dating. I keep urging her to write her memoirs because even at age 30-something, they'd be incredible. And scandalous - which is the best kind of memoir. When she's not dating, she's researching. She emailed me the contents of a recent late night Amazon.com shopping cart, which made her giggle when she got the confirmation email the next day. Made me giggle too:

• The Manual: A True Bad Boy Explains How Men Think, Date, and Mate - and What Women Can Do to Come Out on Top by Steve Santagati


• Jane Eyre DVD (BBC, 1983 with Timothy Dalton)


• How to Date Men: Dating Secrets from America's Top Matchmaker by Janis Spindel

See, she's an expert! She's thinking of leaving the books out on the coffee table so the fellas she dates know she knows what they're up to. Plus there's Timothy Dalton as Mr. Rochester (yowza!) to keep her company when modern romance is just no good.
