    This seemed like fun, so I stole it from HiddenStaircase. It’s rather self explanatory. Author You’ve Read The Most Books From Either Janet Evanovich or Sandra Brown. Don’t judge me. I am a voracious reader of all sorts. Best Sequel Ever A Wolf at the Table by Augusten Burroughs. Though technically not a sequel, it was the second book of his that I read about…

  • Odd Thomas

    I can’t remember the last time I was so caught off guard by a movie like this. Maybe I was paying too much attention to how adorable Anton Yelchin is… So what if I was? I paid enough attention to know that I liked it.

  • Take Care

    Quirky, honest, and adorably entertaining. The way Jodie hits is really quite amazing.

  • “Enough with the Harry Potter already!”

    Alright, none of you have actually said this to my face intimated this through comments (or lack thereof) and passive aggressive vibes, but I just took a look through my posts since February, and yeah, a lot of them are Harry Potter related. Most, actually. But that’s because I finally discovered the series. I’m 27. It took me…

  • Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling

    For years I have heard it said, but now I know it to be true: JK Rowling is brilliant. Masterful, even. I thought I knew the story. I was wrong. I am so very glad I was. Finally, the last for no. 20 on my challenge. I kind of feel like there’s nothing left to read…

  • Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince by J.K. Rowling

    “And now, Harry, let us step out into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure.” —Dumbledore My favourite quote from my favourite character from my favourite Harry Potter book (which happens to have my favourite cover illustration). Dumbledore, I’ll miss you. No. 20 on my book challenge. Almost there.

  • The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion

    Chapter 33 ripped my heart out. Luckily chapters 1-32 and 34-36 were charming, hilarious, and cleverly written. Amazing. No. 18 on my challenge. I guess some people might call it teal…
