Book Blogger #11/Follow Friday #8/TGIF #3

Book Blogger Hop
Which Book Blogger would you most like to meet in real life?

This is hard as I am still fairly new (3 months) and getting to know different bloggers, but I think Alison at Alison Can Read as she often takes the time to come and comment on my posts! ;)




What character in a book would you most like to be? What character in a book would you most like to date?

Hmm...I'd love to be Eponine in Les Miserables - but in the stage musical! ;) I'd also love to be Sookie (I'm sure that's a popular choice, but I don't mind following the crowd sometimes). Or maybe Arwen or Eowyn in Lord of the Rings.

To date: Eric (Sookie Stackhouse) or Saint Germain (Saint Germain Chronicles by Chelsea Quinn Yarbro). I love Enjolras in Les Miserables, but he'd be too busy planning insurrections to go on dates with me.


 What occupies your time when you are not reading and/or blogging?

Well, my life is pretty damn hectic right now! I have a day job and the usual household chores. Then I am trying to pursue my writing career and some freelance editing work. I am also studying for diplomas in editing and publishing. I am planning my October wedding. I read lots and write letters to my penpals. Finally, if I get a spare moment I sing, play flute and piano, practise my languages and do cross stitch. *phew*

    I get to have lunch with a small group of book bloggers on a semi-regular basis. If you're in the SF Bay Area, maybe we've met! Happy blog hop.

    I would choose to be Wolverine because he's the only character who's close to being as masculine as I am! :)
    Cool Site. Now Following.

    I’ve met so many great people via the Book Book Blogger Con at Book Expo America I honestly can’t come up with a single name of a book blogger I want to meet but haven’t yet!

    I’m heading back to BBC @ BEA. I hope to see you there!

    Hop on by my blog and just say hi – http://www.howardsherman.net

    The LOTR women crossed my mind too. I've seen Les Mis but must get round to reading it, it's been sat on my kindle for a while. Thanks for visiting my blog, have a great weekend.

    Wow, you ARE busy. And yes, I agree about Eponine, even though she doesn't have a particularly happy story. She's got a strength to her that I really like...

    Thanks for playing the Weekend Hangout at West of Mars! I hope you'll play more often!

    Hi Nicki, new follower here! Your blog design is very pretty :) I know, I'm a little late with the FF (oops) yesterday was super busy so I didn't have much time to "hop" around and meet people! Anyways, looking forward to reading your posts in the future, have a great rest of your weekend :)

    Hi. I'm here from West of Mars.

    You are a busy bee. I'm in a similar situation as on top of all the usual home stuff (including some renovations) and a full time job I am trying to launch a career in photography.

    The book blogger I would most like to meet - why Susan Gottfried of course! :)
