Bitchery reader Eliza was kind enough to send me the .mp3 of Alan Rickman reading Sonnet 130. Try to breathe normally, ya’ll.
(And please, right click and save lest you hurt our server’s feelings. It’s listening to the .mp3 on repeat, too.)
I think my brain just melted.
Yup, it’s dripping out of my ears now.
I could listen to that man for hours.
Is it so wrong that I watched all the Harry Potter movies just for Alan Rickman? And that I wanted him to kick Kevin Costner’s butt in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves?
No, its not wrong that I wanted one of those Snape action figures either.
He’s the reason I love the Emma Thompson version of Sense and Sensibility.
If watching Harry Potter for Alan Rickman is wrong, then I don’t want to be right. My feelings about Snape changed dramatically when the movies came out…
I need a new keyboard… the sheer amount of drool that spilled from my lips… oh boy.
I swear this man could read tax pamphlets and I’d get happy in the pants.

If dark chocolate had a voice, it would be Alan Rickman’s.
My tongue is tingling to lick his face.
Heh, Wendy. He’s old enough to be my GRANDFATHER and I still want to lick him. Like, a lot.
All my friends wonder why on earth I know this sonnet off by heart. I choose not to tell them about this. Though I do ponder making it my ringtone.
Is it because he sounds slightly dangerous, like he just may bite? Well, hopefully?
Oh good Lord.
There goes my day.
Who knew it was possible to say ‘breasts’ like that?
That sounded so naughty and perfect at the same time-- he could read from the dictionary and be sexy.
No, its not wrong that I wanted one of those Snape action figures either.
Do the action figures talk? Imagine your very own Alan Rickman standing on your desk and speaking to you while you write. It might be better inspiration than the NR bobblehead.
//If dark chocolate had a voice, it would be Alan Rickman’s.//
OH DEAR GODS YES.
What a nice way to start the day. Thanks, Eliza and Sarah!
“If dark chocolate had a voice, it would be Alan Rickman’s.”
That’s the perfect sentence to describe it.
Oh God.
That happens to be my favorite sonnet...I think I’m legally dead, now. I love that man (yes, he’s old enough to be my grandfather as well).
Pardon my crudeness, but I just came a little, in my undies.
‘scuze me ...
— Bonz
Oh my. OH MY.
Well that just made me lose my case of the “Mondays.” Now if only Alan Rickman would read me to sleep each night (etc etc) then I think I’d be quite cured from any potential insomnia ever again.
I’ve lost my ability to speak or form a coherent thought...but luckily, you all have said it all perfectly.
Dark chocolate indeed.
Dude! You made my day.
(sigh)
I need a cigarette, please...and I don’t smoke. Whoo!

Someone’s done a YouTube version with photos, too: double yum! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cw6Swr-ME40
A website that reviews romance novels from a couple of smart bitches who will always give it to you straight. No bullshit. No gushing--unless the author really deserves it. To find out more, read all about us or check out our minty-fresh and funkadelic FAQ section.
I also have a special place in my heart for that florid cover on Lord of Scoundrels. When I bought the book recently I went out of my way to get the old cover instead of the new. And, yeah,…
No comments on the covers, but having never read Lorette Chase and hearing your gushing, I’m going to get me some! By whatever means necessary:)
Dude, I hope Tumperkin wrote the Nico entry :)

Oh man that cover is something awesome.
What What + Waterfall = 911 call
(friends 45, how many friends you’ll need to pull you out of the deep end of the pond after trying this stunt)…
I was very tempted by #1, as the purple prose was very...purpley. #4 gets the vote for the “what what” though.
Honorable mentions to the...well the rest, because damn and oy, too too funny.
