"Nothing like a good boarding school novel . . . and I love when we actually get to go to lessons with the characters. Shut up I like school. Also, it's fascinating in this one, because the main character goes to a school of magic but isn't magical. It's a magic story from the perspective of a muggle." — 5 hours, 55 min ago

| This doesn't sound like something I would necessarily pick up on my own, but I will read anything Rainbow Rowell writes, regardless of topic or genre. The list of authors I will do that for is not very large. I have lots of favorite books by authors...more | |

“No, look, there's a blue box. It's bigger on the inside than it is on the outside. It can go anywhere in time and space and sometimes even where it's meant to go. And when it turns up, there's a bloke in it called The Doctor and there will be stuff wrong and he will do his best to sort it out and he will probably succeed 'cause he's awesome. Now sit down, shut up, and watch 'Blink'.”
