Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee. It's a great way to meet new blogger friends. This weeks question is:
Q. Inspired by the inane twitter trend of #100factsaboutme, give us five BOOK RELATED silly facts about you.
1. I started a book club that has been together for the last 3 years.
2. My favourite place to read is my bed.
3. I am the "go to person" for my friends when they want book recommendations. They know I read A LOT.
4. I have yet to listen to an audio book. This will most likely change with Ed Westwick reading City of Fallen Angels. Sigh...that accent :)
5. I read while on the treadmill!
Book Blogger Hop is a weekly meme hosted by Crazy-For-Books.com. It's a great way to meet new people and friends around the blogworld!
Today's question is "If you could physically put yourself into a book or series…which one would it be and why?"
I am going to go with the Harry Potter series. I would love to go to Hogwarts. I think I would have liked to have a student with Sirius, James, Lupin, etc though. I would have been one of those silly girls with a crush on Sirius.
If you do comment or follow me please leave a link to your blog post so I can take at a look at yours in return.
Happy Friday everyone.
Awesome on the book club and the treadmill! I try to read on the elliptical but tend to get dizzy.

Thanks and I hope you're having a great Friday!
Hi! I also started my own book club - about 4 years ago! I love getting together with friends to discuss a good book.
ReplyDeleteAnd I read on the cross trainer! It has to be a particular size book that I can hold easily, but yes, I do that. :-)

I really wish I could read while on the treadmill, but I'm just not that coordinated, I guess. :) That's so awesome that you have a book club! I really miss having one.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend!
Apologies in advance for my answer this week as it will not immediately resonate with the book blogger population which happens to be 99.5% female.
ReplyDeleteMy choice is a book series geared towards guys which won’t enthrall the vast majority of my fellow book bloggers (who are almost entirely female) with the extensive discussion of powerful weapons and sexy milspec gear, beautiful women, eye-popping action sequences (with occasionally obscene violence), and the like.
But there IS something in my answer that just about everyone of the female persuasion can benefit from my decidedly “books for guys” post. Hop on over to http://www.howardsherman.net to find out what it is.
Happy Hop Friday!

I don't know if I could read while on the treadmill - I lack the required coordination, that's awesome though!
ReplyDeleteI have tried reading on the treadmill, didn't "work out." LOL I have only listened to a couple of audiobooks, but it's been years. When I was a commuter the building I worked in allowed you to rent audiobooks for free, it was a great perk. My daughter and I listened to a few of the Women's Murder Club books...good times!
ReplyDeleteFolllowing you from the Follow Friday Hop...nice blog, love the title! I am a self-titled wino!

I picked Harry Potter too. Managing a book club is quite a responsibility.
ReplyDeleteI'm a new follower. Hope you follow back.

Hopping through. I'd love to be a student at Hogwarts too.

We started a book club three years ago and we have only got through 5 books so far, but we meet together for dinner and wine every six weeks!!
