Ohhh, I want to read The Turncoat!...and great list =)
You're such a dork Meg Cabot and I love you for that. :)
I didn't know there was even a 4th size 12 book until this post! must go buy asap!
I can totally relate to the 24th one...i used to be like that too and that's why unbelievably I used to hate Harry Potter :O but now I LOVE IT because I let my walls down ;)
I'm left handed too. And I had a speech therapist in school since grade school. I kind of wish I kept a journal back then. lol
