Book Blogger Hop & Follow Friday! (week 3)

Hey Peeps it's that time again... Book Blogger Hop and Follow Friday!

Book Blogger Hop is a weekly meme hosted by Crazy For Books.  It is a fun way for bloggers to find each other's blogs and learn about each other.

This week's question/prompt is:

“What’s the LONGEST book you’ve ever read?”
(Note: I’m putting one caveat on this question. You aren’t allowed to say the Bible, Torah, Qur’an, or other religious/spiritual text.)

My Answer:

Stone of Tears (Book 2 Sword of Truth Series) By Terry Goodkind

with a total of 992 pages. :) I started Brandon Sanderson's Way of Kings and it's a whopping 1280 pages, GASP, but I haven't finished it...yet :)

Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkie and Alison Can Read.

It is a fun way for fellow book bloggers to find new friends in the blogging community!
This week's question is:

If you could write yourself a part in a book, what book would it be and what role would you play in that book?

Definitely Harry Potter! Maybe as an American transfer student? Honestly, any part (as long as I am magical) would totally rock my knee-high socks off.  And just for the hell of it, Pride and Prejudice, I so want to be friends with Elizabeth Bennet. 

WWhat about you? Make sure to leave a link so I can check out your post and follow you back!

Happy Flippin Friday :)

Day 6: An Experience That Made You Who You Are Today

Two words:


Harry Potter.
I know, really? Harry Potter, to be completely honest was one of the initial reasons I returned to my all time favorite past time, reading. I remember making fun of the kids around my school in freshman year reading these huge hardbacks with size 32 font. Esh, I was so put off. Don't even get me started on my first initial thoughts on Lord of the Rings and my most favorite book of all time,  The Hobbit.
Once I devoured Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings, I began searching high and low for new fantasy, high adventure books. This is when I took my general love for reading and became passionate.
It's really true, don't judge a book by its cover.


Now I am constantly encouraging those around me to read. I really do believe there is something for everyone.
And Morgan, I too have been collecting different HP editions. Gotta love it
