Q. Inspired by the inane twitter trend of #100factsaboutme, give us five BOOK RELATED silly facts about you.Ooh, this is hard, can't think of much that's particularly interesting or silly but I'll have a go!
1) The only books I can remember starting but not finishing are Don Quixote by Cervantes and Ulysses by James Joyce.
2) I am completely besotted with my kindle, it goes everywhere with me and having raved about it I know a few other people who have bought one.
3) My influence must be rubbing off on my daughter, at 17 mths old her 4th word was Book.
4) Although I never really read them I have loads of beautiful coffee table books on natural history and the marine environment, I love the gorgeous pictures.
5) I have one book in my collection I haven't read but love to look at and smell - a rather delicate leatherbound version of The Pickwick Papers from the early 1900s. If modern mass produced paperbacks were as wonderful I might have had a hard time switching to the kindle.

Now this one is easy, I don't think I'll be alone but I wish I had received a letter from Hogwarts as a kid so it's got to be Harry Potter!
Thanks for visiting my blog, and have a great weekend.

Hi! Thanks for stopping by my blog. I'm a little sick of being a student, so I think I would like to be the teacher, for once. :P I hope you have a great weekend. Happy reading!
Harry Potter is a pretty popular answer this week! For me, there is just way too many good series out there to just pick one, but Harry Potter would definitely be included.
I'm a new follower now and I'm looking forward to reading your posts!
Check Out My Blog Hop!
Harry Potter is a pretty popular choice and I can see why. Personally, I'm afraid of Voldemort. Thanks for stopping by my hop.

I chose three different ones...stop by my blog if you like to see my choices.
Harry Potter isn't one of them, though. I really haven't read any Harry Potter books.
Have a fun hop.
