Follow Friday & Book Blogger Hop #6

Ooh guys. I've been doing this for meme six weeks now! It's hard to believe. I feel like I've only been blogging for a couple of weeks, and it's actually been months... Dang. How time flies when you're having fun, eh?

Anyhoo, it's Friday again! Meaning all of the following fun! Here's to hoping I'm not too loopy to answer like a normal person. :)

Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee each week and is a joint effort between all of us bloggers to get more followers. Plus, each week a different question is asked, and I get to answer it! So here goes:


Q. If you could write yourself a part in a book, what book would it be and what role would you play in that book?
ME. I loveeeee Juliet Marillier's Sevenwaters series. The books take place in ancient Ireland, which I find fascinating as it is, but she always has female protagonists, and they're ridiculously strong. I would want to be one of the members of the family at Sevenwaters. They all have lovely (read: exciting and perilous) adventures in the books, and I want to goooo!

Book Blogger Hop is a weekly par-tay for book bloggers to connect! It's hosted by Crazy for Books (follow that link to get to this week's Blogger Hop post!) and lasts Friday through Monday every week! And we get another exciting question, here goes:


Book Blogger Hop

Q. What's the LONGEST book you've ever read?
ME. Definitely Gone With the Wind. At least I'm pretty sure. It's definitely the longest book I've read that I loved. I could be blocking something terrible out... :)  I read it ages ago, but it was awesome.

Well, that's all I have to ramble about today! As always, I'd love to check out your Follow Friday and/or Book Blogger Hops, so leave me links! It does tend to take me a little while to get to them, so I'm sorry if I randomly comment on Tuesday or Wednesday. :) Happy weekend!

    wow, that's awesome- I've never heard of those books but I can't wait to look into them now. Books with strong lead heroines are always my favourites :) Have you read any Tamora Pierce? Her books are like that too! :)

    I'm a new follower as well, looking forward to new posts from you!

    I haven't heard of that series. I would love to visit Ireland, the history and scenery - fascinating and beautiful. I don't know if I'd want to be in a book with perilous adventures though! Yikes! LOL

    I'm finding that everyone wants to be a part of series..I guess it is because they are just so encompassing by nature of their length.


    PS: I'm a new follower! Please check out my post, where I desperately want to be written into GONE WITH THE WIND. Thanks!

    Great answer! I've heard very good things about Marillier's "Sevenwaters" series. Your answer may just be the motivation I need to finally pick up "Daughter of the Forest". ^_^
