I won Bitterblue and The Letter Q through different contests, so I was really surprised when I found that, not only was the wording on both notes nearly identical (obviously they came from the same publishing house), but they apparently were cut at the same time. It’s little things like this that amuse me.

























Oh Bitterblue, I loved it!
Letterbox Love!
Wow, great book haul!
Impressive book haul there.
As a bit of a former comic book geek, wouldn’t mind seeing your thoughts on “Hero”.
