Last few Temu bits that have recently arrived that I'm happy with, the socks are cute and stay up on my decidedly plus sized legs, the nightie actually makes a great skirt if you put a top over it like a blouse or a sweater or something, and the tie has a tuck behind for the shorter end after you have knotted it and also came with a pair of cufflinks - at least, I'm assuming they are cufflinks, I've never worn cufflinks before so I wouldn't know for certain XP The books are cool but not finished reading any of then yet, it also bugs me a bit that the illustrator for Mythos isn't credited on the front cover, I get wanting it to look sparse/minimalist and if they're currently a relative unknown it might not actively help market the book, but it doesn't seem like the best... etiquette maybe? Feeling pretty chuffed to own the Bernie Wrightson Frankenstein and Scott Gustafson Peter Pan as my understanding is that both are quite rare these days! The Mina Lima Beauty and the Beast I purchased for the illustrated hardcover and full unabridged text, rather than particularly the interactive elements, which I may mostly leave untouched, but it will be interesting to read, and compare with the Disney 1991 animated and Jean Cocteau film adaptations

[QUOTE="RadFemHedonist, post: 673697, member: 1416"] Last few Temu bits that have recently arrived that I'm happy with, the socks are cute and stay up on my decidedly plus sized legs, the nightie actually makes a great skirt if you put a top over it like a blouse or a sweater or something, and the tie has a tuck behind for the shorter end after you have knotted it and also came with a pair of cufflinks - at least, I'm assuming they are cufflinks, I've never worn cufflinks before so I wouldn't know for certain XP The books are cool but not finished reading any of then yet, it also bugs me a bit that the illustrator for Mythos isn't credited on the front cover, I get wanting it to look sparse/minimalist and if they're currently a relative unknown it might not actively help market the book, but it doesn't seem like the best... etiquette maybe? Feeling pretty chuffed to own the Bernie Wrightson Frankenstein and Scott Gustafson Peter Pan as my understanding is that both are quite rare these days! :) The Mina Lima Beauty and the Beast I purchased for the illustrated hardcover and full unabridged text, rather than particularly the interactive elements, which I may mostly leave untouched, but it will be interesting to read, and compare with the Disney 1991 animated and Jean Cocteau film adaptations :) [/QUOTE]
