The Scarlet Letter Girls

Eat your heart out, Gilmores -- the original mother-daughter team is all Hawthorne's making...




Hester may have earned her "A" (hand-stitched to the front of her somber Puritanical garb), but it's serious little Pearl's pale figure that I find creepy...more like a ghost than a child.

You guys outdid yourself on this one. This book is very disturbing on so many levels, but still one of my favorites (maybe because I was an unwedded mom) but that's a whole other story. Hope you guys are doing ok during all these storms. Let me know how you all are fairing up at the cabin.
