Book Blogger Hop & Follow Friday!

Book Blogger Hop is a fun meme hosted by Crazy For Books. Enter your link and go hop around other blogs that are out there, ready to be discovered!

This week was less stressful compared to last week. This also means I got to read a bit more! I feel like homework is taking over my reading time which isn't good. I've sort of gotten into a routine. Now I just have to follow it.

If you could physically put yourself into a book or series…which one would it be and why?

I don't even have to think too hard about this one! I have to say that I've always loved the world of Harry Potter so I'll say Harry Potter. I love the books and the world. Even though it might be kind of dangerous it's something that I would enjoy. I mean come on, who doesn't like wizards or magic? =)

To join the fun and make now book blogger friends, just follow these simple rules:

  1. Follow the Follow My Book Blog Friday Host { Parajunkee.com } and any one else you want to follow on the list.
  2. Follow our Featured Bloggers
  3. Put your Blog name & URL in the Linky thing.
  4. Grab the button up there and place it in a post, this post is for people to find a place to say hi in your comments
  5. Follow Follow Follow as many as you can
Inspired by the inane twitter trend of #100factsaboutme, give us five BOOK RELATED silly facts about you.

So I don't know if they will be silly but here are 5 book related facts.
  1. My mom has actually hidden some of my books so I stopped reading and did something else. It doesn't work since I always find my books.
  2. I don't need bookmarks to remember where I left on a book. People have tried to make me forget my page by closing the book without me noticing. Again it doesn't work.
  3. I rarely reread books. I usually remember my favorite parts of the book and read those parts. Most of the time it's the majority of the book.
  4. If there's ever an earthquake (I live in a seismic zone) I think I would worry more about my books damaging than getting to a safe place. I don't think it's something you should be thinking about.
  5. I hate having books that don't match. Like some being paperback and the others being hardcover or the covers not matching or the size of the books.

If you're visiting, make sure you leave your link and I'll make sure to visit your blog!

  1. Haha, your facts are just cute! Especially the one about your mom hiding your books. I couldn't stand that! I'm horrible and finding things. I don't understand how people can just know where they left off in a book. I always need bookmarks. I'm a bit OCD about book matching as well.

    Here's my Follow Friday + Book Blogger Hop:
