books

A lot of characters in kids' books have it pretty good, from calling the start of the wild rumpus to ordering room service from their hotel suite. If you could be any character from children's literature, who would you be?

I think maybe Meggie from Inkheart, I'd give anything to visit Eleanor's house/library, go through every last one of her adventures no matter how harrowing, and besides, she can read herself AND her favorite characters in or out of any book at any time!

Or maybe Violet Baudelaire, from The Series of Unfortunate Events. Yes, her life sucked, but she met the world's most wonderfully eccentric people, lived in a steampunk era (yay steampunk!), and I love her costumes. I'd love to be able to invent things like she does, too.

But really... I think I'd most absolutely love to be Anne from Anne of Green Gables. But... wait... hey, that's right, I WAS her!! And I'd ever so gladly do it all over again. <3

Just finished The Host. I LOVE it. SO MUCH! More than any of the Twilight books, more than... most books I've read, really. Wanderer is my kindred spirit... no pun intended! (: Makes you think. Makes you sad. Makes you happy. IT'S GOOD.

Don't be sittin' there, go read it, fool! Or I'll ramble and be all 'omg good book blah blah biased critique waaaah' on you. Rawr.

What fictional character do you relate to most and why?

This looked right up my alley, so I figured I'd take a jab at it.

I think, of all the books I've read and cherish, I'm most like Scout in To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee. I acted like her a lot when I was a kid, forever in the shadow of my beloved older brother, doing anything to be the third wheel whenever a friend came over. I was a tomboy, gleefully accepting hand-me-downs and sporting them proudly. Even now I'd still rather hang around with the guys than be stuck with a bunch of hairbrained girls. We're both pretty proud people, especially when it comes to being girly, and to say the least we're both really, really obstinant. We're both positively voracious readers as well! ;) I'm a lot shyer than her, though, and I've got a pretty chill temper, so I've never actually hit anyone (except for my brother... but he deserved it xD). But like her, it's taken a few years to fully understand and to accept the dignity that comes with being a lady. And we admire Atticus Finch. He's my hero, and I hope someday I can write that I relate most to him.
