Adam at Roof Beam Reader did a meme that made me smile, so I copied it and did my own version, based on books read in 2017.
I love this time of year--looking back and planning ahead!
- In high school I was: The Beekeeper’s Apprentice (Laurie R. King) (actually my parents had bees at the time, so this is not totally fabricated!)
- People might be surprised (by): Dragon Teeth (Michael Crichton)
- I will never be: A Marked Man (Barbara Hamilton)
- My fantasy job is: A Walk Along the Wall (Hunter Davies)
- At the end of a long day I need: Home Cooking (Laurie Colwin)
- I hate it when: Leaving Everything Most Loved (Jacqueline Winspear)
- Wish I had: News of the World (Paulette Giles)
- My family reunions are: Homegoing (Yaa Gyasi)
- At a party you’d find me with: The Brontes (Juliet Barker)
- I’ve never been to: The Underground Railroad (Colson Whitehead)
- A happy day includes: Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe (Fannie Flagg)
- Motto I live by: Yes Please (Amy Poehler)
- On my bucket list is: Journey to Munich (Jacqueline Winspear)
- In my next life, I want to have: Three Men in a Boat (Jerome K. Jerome)
Feel free to play along and provide a link to your list or provide it in the comments.
Happy holidays and happy reading!
I'm going to be chuckling about your next life choice for some time :-D
ReplyDeleteSeveral of my Blogger friends are participating in the meme. I think that it is really neat. I also would hang out with the Bronte's if I was at a party :)
ReplyDeleteGreat post! Your choices made me smile. :)
ReplyDeleteSuch good answers! I might have a go too. I still haven't managed a 'walk along the wall'! Maybe next year ...
ReplyDeleteLove these! I'd love to spend time at a party with the Brontes, and the motto you live by is pretty perfect too! Looks like you had a great reading year too.
ReplyDeleteI also really liked your choices and gave me some great book ideas about what to read in 2018
ReplyDeleteThis was such fun to read that I immediately went to look over what I'd read this year to play along.
