I'm sure you guys are slowly sinking from your high from the holidays (I know I am), so here I am to add a little cheer. (Oh, don't be like that, all *facepalm*ing and *headdesk*ing at me. I'm not that bad...okay, maybe I am that bad...)
It's time for more of inkcrush's faves!! Well, they're actually my faves, but inkcrush gave me the idea and all...you get the point.
Adios, Nirvana

When you piss off a bridge into a snowstorm, it feels like you’re connecting with eternal things. Paying homage to something or someone. But who? The Druids? Walt Whitman? No, I pay homage to one person only, my brother, my twin.2. fave book title
In life. In death.
Telemachus.
3. fave reading experience (ie: created a great reading memory)
I bought Original Sin at a really fun book event
4. book with the best food in it (made you so crazy-envious-hungry)
4. book with the best food in it (made you so crazy-envious-hungry)
Anna and the French Kiss was all about fancy French dishes
5. book with the most sensual weather (made you shiver/sweat)
The Scorpio Races had some beautiful writing, and there was a scene with Puck and Sean Kendrick the night before the race where I felt like I was actually there.
6. most embarrassing book cover (feeling sheepish in public or just plain ugly)

7. can’t believe you waited this long to read the book (!)
Hex Hall was sitting on my shelf for months!
8. book you'd give your
I would give my sister Hex Hall...well, at least, I would give it to her if she hadn't already borrowed and read it before me
9. book you'd give your
My brother is a fan of action and, for obvious reasons, boy POVs. I already gave him Angelfire, and I would also totally give him The Scorpio Races.
10. book you'd like to give your past-self to read
I would give my 12 or 13 year old self Like Mandarin
11. book that lived up to (or superseded the hype)Delirium was amazing, and the first book I almost threw across the room
12. book you stayed the latest to finish (confess!!!)

I've been pretty good lately about not staying up too late to read, but Inheritance was so long that I stayed up late several times to try to get through it, even though I didn't finish it. I stayed up until around 2:30 maybe...?
13. book you were *dying* to get your hands on the most
There are a bunch of these. Angelfire, since it sounded so awesome. Forever because of Linger's ending, The Scorpio Races because it's Maggie freakin' Stiefvater, and The Iron Queen because of the complete mind-blow that was The Iron Daughter
14. fattest brick of a book you read (by page count)
There are a couple of these. Illusions for the mind-blowing, Nevermore for the heart-stopping, and The Iron Queen for the tear-jerking
I mostly have some singles, but I also have a set that I read this year and is really pretty together

Peace,
