This shows the color better (no flash). I love how shimmery and iridescent this is. #gelmanicure #shellac #moonlightandroses #iridescent #prettynails #bamboonails

14, 17, 21, 29, 35, 44!

MORE BOOK QUESTIONS!! :D :D

14. Favorite place to read?

Bath tub!  It's how I start my day almost every morning!

17. Do you ever write in the margins of your books?

Frequently. I underline, write thoughts and feelings, ask questions, make connections.

21. What will inspire you to recommend a book?

If I like it, I'll tell you about it.  It needs to be something that moves me or makes me think.  I rarely recommend books that I just found pleasurable - but if it gets the gears turning I'll want you all to read it. :P

29. Name a case in which hype ruined your reading experience.

I got spoiled on a major plot point of the fifth Song of Ice and Fire book because I was slow reading it and people wouldn't shut up about it. D:  But in the sense this question is asking about, I think, is when has hype for a book let you down. Well. There have been plenty of hyped books that I haven't liked, but that's not the fault of the hype, you know? Relationships with books are personal.  Hype might make me pick up a book, but once I start reading it's just us, me and the book, and no one else's opinions count.  It lives and dies on its own merits.

35. Favorite poet?

ohhh... I am tempted to say Whitman but I think the real answer is Frank O'Hara. :)

44. Favorite film adaptation of a novel?

Nothing serious or artsy - I adore the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy movie.  Also I'm coming to the opinion that Game of Thrones is better as a TV show than as a book because you get all the good parts without the problematic prose.  Of course I can't forget BBC Sherlock :P

Congratulations on graduating with so many honors! You are one smart cookie. :) I hope your summer turns out amazing and that NOLA will welcome you with open arms. I'm so excited for you because I know your future will be so bright. :) DFTBA (as if you needed reminding! lol)

Eeeeee thank you lady!  I'm so glad I got to see you and give you a hug at graduation. :D :D  I know you set a stunning example for a lot of people here, and you definitely should be proud of yourself. You truly deserve every happiness in the world, and I am wishing you all the best as you move on from Hattiesburg.  <3 <3
