After a couple of intense and in-depth film analyses these last few weeks, I thought it might be nice to try something a little lighter. I admit that I’m not personally on Twitter — and I don’t have a Twitter account for my site Reel Librarians, either — but every so often, it’s fun to explore on Twitter if anyone’s tweeted about Reel Librarians. And lo and behold, they have! 😀
Here are some of the tweet themes I’ve noticed over the years, as well as some (not all) of my favorite tweets about the Reel Librarians site in general or about specific posts:
Such a site exists!
Best librarian films. http://t.co/e7zN5ELc Nope, not an oxymoron. #librarians #films #funtowatch

#HarryPotterFanGirl:
And last but not least, what might just be my personal favorite tweet about Reel Librarians, directly from actress Sally Mortemore, who played librarian Madam Pince in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002). She personally responded to the post I wrote about Madame Pince, comparing the librarian character in the books with her onscreen portrayal.
‘…the reel Mdm Pince is physically mor attractive than her counterpart in print.’ Shud I take that as a compliment? http://t.co/V1i24QxsUN

Hope you enjoyed the Reel Librarian-themed tweets! I’ll be back next week with more reel librarian fun 😀
I’m always glad to tell people to check out your blog.
Check out! Get it?…Because you write a blog about librarians and you check out books.
I’ll show myself to the door now.
LOL! I am always here for cheesy puns! 😀 😀 😀
