First up, the Book Blogger Hop, hosted by Jen at Crazy-for-Books.com. Her question this week is:Which book blogger would you most like to meet in real life?
This is a hard question, there are some really nice people I've met on blogs but none I know well yet on a personal level. I think it would be great to meet up with anyone with similar tastes who is happy to talk books though. As a sensible adult of course if I was going to meet up with someone I'd met online I'd be meeting them in a public place to start with, and letting someone else know who I was meeting, where and when first, be safe people!
And moving on to Follow Friday, hosted at Parajunkee.com the question is What character in a book would you most like to be, what character in a book would you most like to date?
Oooh, that's a goodie. I think I'd quite like to be a character in a Jane Austen book. The women of that period might not have had as much freedom as we do now, but for a woman of means life sounded pretty sweet. Alternatively I'd like to be a kick-arse character like Jaclyn Johnson in Sean Sweeney's Model Agent. I always thought Lara Croft was cool and she's probably the closest character I've found in fiction.
Who would I date? I've always had a soft spot for Dirk Pitt Jr, from Clive Cussler's Dirk Pitt/NUMA novels. He's good looking, athletic and adventurous and has a good brain too. Almost sounds too good to be true, so a few dates might help find out whether the guy has anything wrong with him.
Thanks for visiting my blog, I love to read people's comments so please say Hi, and have a great weekend!

I think Jane Austen characters are great choices.
OOh I like Dirk!! :-) It would definitely be nice to be a Jane Austen character. ;-) Of course I'd like to be Lizzie or Jane Bennett. :-P Thanks for stopping by! Happy reading. :-)
Dirk Pitt is a great choice! My mom has read every single Clive Cussler book :). Have a great weekend!

Definitely read "Les Miserables" - it's an amazing book. The opening is a bit slow, but if you persevere it is well worth it! ;)
Stopping by from the Blog Hop.
