Blog Hop



Friday Follows asks this week: Give us five book related silly facts about you.

1.  Most of the books that I have bought, I haven't read and are still in purchased condition.
2.  My TBR is really insane and I don't know what the count is.
3.  I have probably spent thousands of dollars on library fines
4.  I am able to read a number of books at one time, as I can separate the storylines and can follow them all quite easily.
5.  I typically borrow more books than I know I can read.

Crazy for Books asks this week: If you could physically put yourself into a book or a series, which one would it be and why?

The series that I would put myself into would be the Harry Potter series.  I know it probably sounds cheeky and typical, but I liked how even if one was slightly different, one was accepted for who they where.  It is also a world that seems so different from the one that we live in and if I wanted to escape the realities of the magical world, one could always go into the Muggle one, even if it were just for a moment.

I read that series totally differently. I thought it had all of the problems of muggle life with the added complications of magic. It was a close second for me tho! :)

Hi!

It's so cool to see another BC girl on here!! Most definitely following your blog :)

I also chose the Potter series. I love your comment about how being in this series also means you can go back to the muggle world periodically - I never thought of it like that!

Take care & happy reading,
Ms. C

I can't believe you've spent thousands in library fines. At some point you should've realized it's cheaper to just buy the books yourself. :P Silly lady, I hope you don't get conned by the library and their excessive fines anymore lol! :)

Harry Potter? Sounds nice, as long as there aren't any scary types running about the place, which seems to be happening a bit too much!

I am so embarrassed to say I've never read Harry Potter or even saw one of the movies. Here's mine:

Just swinging through on the blog hop. I enjoyed reading your answers to the #5 Things question. I had to laugh about having purchased books that you've never read. I am so guilty of that!

I hope you have a great weekend!

I hate to think how much I've spent on book fines. Outrageous!

Here's my post for this hop. Hope you will stop by. I always follow back.

Oh my gosh! I've spent so much in library fines as well. I know that it isn't to be proud of but I can only laugh at myself.

Harry Potter should be hearing how many folks have chosen him. :)

Hope you have a fun hop.

My answer has three choices...stop by if you like.
