Even more exciting in comparison to other things. Also, the thrill of getting away with something.<br /><br />Then I will hate your face! Go for Adam Scott as Ben in Parks & Rec. I'm kind of in love with that character.<br /><br />But you were still excited because free things for you!

Sorry buddy!<br /><br />My signature's a bit of a mess too, but that really doesn't have a single recognizable squiggle. <br /><br />I knew I had to buy it because I freaking LOVED the segment he read. I have no doubt that I will love it. Also, I really like his whole attitude that gender is all a construct. So true, but rare to see.<br /><br />Okay, I love Yotsuba's face.<br /><br />I only heard about it in the giveaway.

BOOK FESTIVALS! BOOK SIGNINGS!!
If only autho...YAY! BOOK FESTIVALS! BOOK SIGNINGS!!<br />If only authors would come to Hawaii...*tears*<br /><br />David Levithan's signature look like a whole new language.<br />Like my father who literally signs in a incoherent scribble. He thinks it's super cool and he told me how he spent forever coming up with it a loonnnngg time ago. But apparently you can't sign like that on naturalization documents because he did and they were like "that's not readable, you have to sign in a legible way!"...so he had to re-sign it using a signature that isn't really even his signature.<br />And one of my elementary teachers called me up and was like "What's this scribble doing here?"<br /><br />I started reading Every Day because I got an ARC in the mail last week, and even though I was swamped in homework, I COULDN'T HELP MYSELF (besides I was all like "THIS BOOK WILL BE OUT IN A FEW DAYS, I HAVE TO READ IT BEFORE EVERYONE ELSSSEEE OR THIS ARC WILL BE NO LONGER SPECIAL!"). Most intriguing plot EVAAARRR. So I read 2 or three chapters before I had to tear myself away.<br /><br />I keep misreading middle ground for middle grade. *rubs eyes*<br />HOW CAN YOU LOVE MY FACE? You've never seen my face. AND you imagine me to be a stupid cauliflower.<br /><br />ROMEO SPIKES looks epic. I love the gothic cover. And I can't believe I haven't heard about it...Lilianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11540910005642018594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555254327067745492.post-56668428318454696832012-09-02T13:25:15.444-04:002012-09-02T13:25:15.444-04:00enjoy all . really want a copy of False Memory too...enjoy all . really want a copy of False Memory too.rorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01492185365572906987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-555254327067745492.post-86519070263304544792012-09-02T12:53:59.704-04:002012-09-02T12:53:59.704-04:00I'm so jealous of you getting to go to the boo...I'm so jealous of you getting to go to the book festival!
