I hope everyone has a weekend of thrilling positive life developments and snacks. **First of all, apologies if you've already read this in Royals Round-Up, or elsewhere, but Heather and I are thrilled that *The Royal We* is up for Best Fiction of 2015 Award in this year's Goodreads Choice Awards.** [**You can vote -- for us, or any of the other worthy nominees -- here!**](https://www.goodreads.com/choiceawards/best-fiction-books-2015?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- [Fashionista reports that J Law has left Rachel Zoe ](https://fashionista.com/2015/11/jennifer-lawrence-left-rachel-zoe?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)BUT! She's sticking with two of Zoe's former associates who, for all we know, were the ones dressing her all this time ANYWAY. Call me when she leaves Dior, y'all. \-- I LOVE this piece on LitHub from[ a book cover designer, speaking specifically about redesigning paperback covers,](https://lithub.com/secrets-of-the-book-designer-paperbacks/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) even more specifically the paperback edition of *Dept. of Speculation*, which is a GREAT cover. It's extra interesting to me personally, as I know the women at Grand Central who worked on the cover for *The Royal We* went through like 100 options before we landed on the right on. It is *hard* and fascinating work. \-- At Celebitchy: [Alicia Vikander might replace Rooney Mara as Lisbeth Salander.](https://www.celebitchy.com/455561/alicia%5Fvikander%5Fmight%5Freplace%5Frooney%5Fmara%5Fat%5Flisbeth%5Fsalander%5Fgood%5For%5Fbad%5Fcall/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- I was at this event! As you will see if you click through, as my tweet is quoted: [Carrie Brownstein marries two fans at her L.A. book event.](https://www.latimes.com/books/jacketcopy/la-et-jc-carrie-brownstein-marries-two-fans-at-her-la-book-event-20151104-htmlstory.html??ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) You guys, it was AWESOME. (Jacket Copy) \-- At Women In The World: [How Ruth Bader Ginsburg became “Notorious R.B.G.” ](https://nytlive.nytimes.com/womenintheworld/2015/11/03/how-ruth-bader-ginsburg-became-notorious-r-b-g/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)You guys, she can do more push-ups than I can. \-- I really enjoyed this at *Cosmo:* [Things I Wish I Knew Before I Became a College Professor](https://www.cosmopolitan.com/career/a48855/things-i-wish-i-knew-before-i-became-a-college-professor/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). (The author, Aileen Gallagher, often edited my and Heather's work when we wrote for *New York*, and she was \[and presumably still is\] a GREAT editor, who has become a college professor.) \-- Allow me to quote our friends at The Cut: [Say Bonjour to This Justin Trudeau Paper Doll](https://nymag.com/thecut/2015/11/say-bonjour-justin-trudeau-paper-doll.html?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- [Refinery29 ordered from a variety of those vaguely sketchy-seeming, yet cheap and highly fashionable, Asian online clothing purveyors you may have run across in your shopping](https://www.refinery29.com/2015/11/96886/shopping-asian-e-commerce-style-websites?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). I TOO once ordered from one of the sites mentioned and the dress was actually quite cute, but VERY short on me. \-- Heather and I were some of the writers surveyed for this piece on Mental Floss, but it's fun regardless: [20 Writers On Their Must-Have Desert Island Read. A LOT of us -- including me -- wanted to bend the rules to bring all the Harry Potter books.](https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/70661/20-writers-their-must-have-desert-island-read?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- Always like to see SMG getting some love -- [here, from The New Potato.](https://www.thenewpotato.com/2015/11/02/sarah-michelle-gellar-interview-2015/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- Like I wasn't going to bring you this, from Pajiba: [The BBC Just Gave Us the Best Ever Christmas Present: Idris Elba](https://www.pajiba.com/trade%5Fnews/will-ruth-wilson-return-this-december-as-alice-morgan-in-luther-series-4.php?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) - Lainey OF COURSE [has thoughts about the Blake/Miranda/Gwen/Gavin of it all](https://www.laineygossip.com/Gwen-Stefani-and-Blake-Shelton-officially-confirm-they-are-dating-two-hours-before-hes-scheduled-to-be-at-CMA-Awards-where-ex-wife-Miranda-Lambert-also-expected/41131?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). (Including [some dish that came pre-confirmation](https://www.laineygossip.com/Ryan-Seacrest-asks-Gwen-Stefani-about-Blake-Shelton-hookup-as-fuzzy-photos-of-the-two-touching-at-Adam-Levines-Halloween-party-are-released/41120?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io).) \-- At Vulture: [Kelly Clarkson and Josh Groban Destroy This Phantom of the Opera Ballad in Front of World’s Most Intense Audience](https://www.vulture.com/2015/11/groban-and-clarkson-cover-all-i-ask-of-you.html??ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) \-- I *cried* laughing reading this when it was happening on Twitter, like, literally tears running down my face. Don't eat while you read because you might choke. At The Bloggess: [Mortification is what bring us all together.](https://thebloggess.com/2015/11/mortification-is-what-bring-us-all-together-cringey-tweets-part-2/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)
