Follow Hop 20May11

About Me:
I return follows but I would greatly appreciate it if you left a link in the comments to make it a bit easier on me.
I mostly review YA but I also read mystery, romance, historical, classics, and fantasy. Recent reviews include: Shift by Jeri Smith-Ready (Loved!); Shine by Lauren Myracle; Mercy by Rebecca Lim (Loved!); Girl Wonder by Alexa Martin; Like Clockwork by Bonnie Dee; Clarity by Kim Harrington; and The Grimm Legacy by Polly Shulman (for Fairy Tale Friday).






List 5 Quirky Facts About You:
1. In general, I don't like my food to touch and I usually eat all of one food on my plate before moving on to another.  Like for my last dinner, I ate all of my corn on the cob, then my hamburger, then my rice a roni, and lastly my salad.
2. I prefer even numbers to odd, for example leaving the volume of the TV on an even number.
3. I have a Theodore Roosevelt bobblehead. It is awesome.
4. I'll check my watch two or three times in a row just to make sure that I really read it right.
5. I can't take a nap after 3 or else I can't sleep at night. I hope to someday be like my mom who will sleep for twenty minutes at 9 and then go to bed at 11 like it's nothing.

"If you were given the chance to spend one day in a fictional world (from a book), which book would it be from and what would that book be?"

The obvious first answer is Harry Potter's magical world at Hogwarts but I'm not sure that is in fact my number one choice. I'm kind of interested in the world of Paranormalcy by Kiersten White but I think I will choose the BookWorld of Jasper Fforde's Thursday Next series.  Surrounded by books and getting to meet ALL of my favorite characters would rock.

  2. Yeah, I don't like my food to touch either, but I must be a rebel since I eat bits of everything all at once. I'm now your newest follower and would love for you to visit me whenever you get a chance.

  4. Hopping through. I prefer odd numbers over even. I think it's because of my obsession with the number 7.

  5. I eat in order, too! I can't really mix my food, it just seems illogical. LOL, glad I'm not the only one!

  10. New follower, hopping through!

    I do the same thing when I check the time. Usually because I forget what it was! :)

    Happy Hopping!

  11. Hello, there! =) You have some really well-written reviews!

    Fictional Character: Haha. Alas, I was tempted to say Mr. Darcy, but I think I'll go with Megan Chase from Julie Kagawa's Iron Fey Series. The Faery Realm, though dangerous at times, seems like wicked fun.

  13. I hate it when my food touches as well! It drives me bonkers but at the same time it annoys everyone around me because it takes me longer to eat. And I also always re-check my watch, you can't be too certain, I think it's an OCD thing;) Happy Friday!

  14. New Follower!

    I do the watch thing too! Well, usually my cell phone, I rarely wear a watch. If I'm wearing a watch sometimes I'll check both the cell phone AND the watch though.
