Welcome to my blog! If you came here from the Book Blogger Hop over at Crazy-for-Books and Follow Friday from Parajunkee's View, thanks for visiting! This is where I talk, rant, rave, and gush about all things, books!
This week, Jennifer asks, "If you were given the chance to spend one day in a fictional world (from a book), which book and would that place be?"
I wrote about my favorite and not-so-favorite fictional places here, but I think it's a tie between Rivendell (from LOTR) and Hogsmeade (from HP)!
And Parajunkee asks us to put down five quirky things about you.
1. I watch make-up tutorials from Youtube at night to make me sleepy.
2. I hate book creases and folds but don't mind dog-earing.
3. I like putting deli turkey in sweet potato mash.
4. I like to pretend to do some online shopping when I want some retail therapy. I put everything in my "shopping bag" but never actually check out.
5. I own 6 different copies of Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte - my favorite novel in the Classics genre. I still continue to collect more.

Was thinking of LOTR too - Hogsmeade would be good, with some butterbeer!
ReplyDeleteI do exactly the same with internet shopping, I spend hours looking at clothes i want, but never buying them!
Beautiful Blog!
ReplyDeleteNew follower...Love your quirky habits! Stop by and visit at http://everydayadventure11.blogspot.com
Thanks!
New follower here. You can never have too much Jane Eyre! I used to have 3 physical copies but made myself cut back to one in the interest of shelf space. I still have 2 ebook copies in addition to that one remaining physical copy, though. :) Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteMarla @ Starting the Next Chapter
Yes, Rivendell...there are just too many places I'd visit in the LOTR.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekned!
New follower, hopping through! (I love your blog header!)
ReplyDeleteI still need to read Jane Eyre. It's on my list to get to!
Happy Hopping!
New follower! Hogsmead would be an amazing place! I love HP. I also dog ear book but lately is has really been bothering me. Happy blog hop :)

Retail isn't really ever a form of therapy for me, unless it's a much coveted piece of camera or diving kit. Then it gets pricey! Have a great weekend.

ReplyDeleteI also do the virtual shopping thing! I love it! Sometimes I go back when things are "better" and buy an item or two, though. ;)

I hate breaking the spine of my books as well. I have accidentally creased some covers a couple of times and I almost cried. It's really sad when that happens. I used to dog ear my books all the time, until my aunt lectured me about it and I haven't done it since!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!

Wow. I bet there are a tons of different covers for Jane Eyre too.
ReplyDeleteHopping through. I've watched makeup tutorials a few times too. I wear bare minerals so it's good to see how people put it on.

You don't mind dog earing? Woah - I think you're one of the first bloggers I've seen to admit that! I personally never do.
ReplyDeleteYour choices of Rivendell and Hogsmeade are made of 100% sheer awesomeness. We'll get along just fine ;)
Oh, and new follower :)
ReplyDeleteOh, those are the exact same places I would have chosen. I went with Rivendell.
ReplyDeleteMake-up tutorials to put you to sleep, eh? I'll have to try that.
