How much would you pay for a Marian Keyes book?
Lovely Marian (to give her her full name) recently auctioned off the manuscript of her next book, This Charming Man, for the To Russia With Love charity she's supported for a while now.
It went for 3500Euro, which is about £2,500 (US$5000). Now I'm really looking forward to reading Ms Keyes book, but not *that* much...
[via Marian Keyes - if you only do one thing today (apart from reading Trashionista), please read this Marian Keyes newsletter. You will cry with laughter.]
While we're on the subject, you can catch Marian on Strictly Come Dancing's It Takes Two again this very night (BBC2, 6.30pm).

Holy baloney she's HILARIOUS!! I actually laughed out loud - throwing my head back and tilting back in my chair laugh out loud - and now I have to move her books to the top of my to-read list!

I know! (That whole massage/spoon thing nearly killed me.)
Jessie, haven't you read any of her books before?
