Piece......singular? ......well, this is going to sound cliche but I honestly really really like Van Gogh's Starry Starry night, it's the color scheme that draws me in and I feel it's got this majestic air to it :)

Petrichor! That was one I'd forgotten, thank you. *adds to list*

Classics are well-named, Irene. I adore them. Planning on reading some more later this year. Dickens and Bronte and more Austen. *rubs hands together gleefully*

TTPBM: Favourite book over 100 years old?

[Irene]

Um...well I don't know for a fact that they all are more than I 100 years but I think they are so here are a few: Pride and Prejudice, The Scarlet Letter, Any of Shakespeare's works, Jane Eyre, Anne of Green Gables, White Fang, Gulliver's Travels, Swiss Family Robinson, The Jungle Book, The Iliad and the Odyssey...and I could continue :)

TTPBM: Favorite book published in the last year?

[Maria]

what is the thread game?

[Ashley]

Ummm...I have no idea, Irene.
TTPBM: Likes Percy Jackson? (Referring to the character, not the books).

[Irene]

@Maria: You mean this thread? If you go to the very first page it explains everything! :)


Well, I really disliked the books so I'm not a fan of Percy.....


TTPBM: Has seen the movie for City of Bones?

[MJ]

Nope.

TTPBM: If Irene, why did you dislike them?! Not your kind of book?

[Irene]

Hi MJ! And I'm not sure because I normally really enjoy that sort of stuff. I think it may have been I was told so many times by so many people that they were AWESOME MUST READ books that when I actually read the first one I ended up highly disappointed....also I don't like his writing style...


TTPBM: Favorite book series to recommend?

[Chantae]

The Cahill Witch Chronicles

Yes!

TTPBM: Favors series over stand-alone books?

[[deleted user]]

Yes.

TTPBM: A book series you've not collected, but REALLY want to?

Harry Potter (I want the hardcover boxed set).

TTPBM: Likes hardcover books versus soft cover?

[MJ]

I like soft covers better. Dunno why.

TTPBM: How often do you go to the library?

[Irene]

Well that depends....I normally got at least three or four times a month.

TTPBM: How often do you go to bookstores?

[MJ]

Almost never. I get all my books from the library or for Christmas. It's a rare treat going to a bookstore (I don't live near one and they're expensive).

TTPBM: Do you get your library to hold books for you or do you just go hunt them down yourself?

[Irene]

Both!

TTPBM: Has access to multiple public libraries?

[Zechariah]

I believe so...? :P I believe I have access to quite a few. I just don't used them that often. :/

Sax, violin, oboe, many others...

TTPBM: Favorite villain?

[Irene]

Again? Um......

TTPBM: Worst book you've ever read?

[Irene]

(@MJ: Cooking with mom, or grandma, is always fun!)

Um, Lark was pretty bad. I mean the idea was good but it was so poorly thought out and written...

TTPBM: What's a very popular, well reviewed book, that you actually didn't like?

I was responding to favorite instruments. I only play the sax and used to play the violin. :)

The hunger games




TTPBM: Who's your favorite author?

J.R.R. Tolkien.

TTPBM: And you? Just one?

[Bethany Rose]

UGHH. Why must I be asked this question. xD Well, at the moment, it is Ally Carter! Love the woman!

TTPBM: What's the worst sickness/cold you've ever caught?

[Irene]

To be honest, it takes a lot to take me down so I don't know if anything has been particularly bad. I did however get a sinus infection shortly after I got my wisdom teeth out and that put me out of school for a week.

TTPBM: Can drive?

[MJ]

Not yet. :)

Irene wrote: "Well, lets see, I don't post my birth month date and year on the internet for all of the world to see so nope... "

I meant just the day and month. Not the year. :/

[Irene]

Well, it's unnamed but I wanted to write a (I guess a fanfic?) using Ian Flemming's Bond if he were to try to go live a normal life but he's not a spy, just a damaged male lead in the way Bond is damaged. It's for my personal expanding as my writer.


TTPBM: Current male lead's name in your story?

[johanna (jo), soliloquist.]

Roy.

TTPBM: Favourite character in your current story?

[Irene]

My male lead, I feel that I've made him relatively realistic without being too touchy feely (and am there fore proud of him).

TTPBM: Villain in your current story?

[johanna (jo), soliloquist.]

He hasn't introduced himself to me yet. Pretty sure he's going to be a British guy in a suit, though. Hopefully he'll turn up eventually.

TTPBM: Thing you find the hardest in writing?

[Irene]

Um...coming up with an idea you can turn into a novel.

TTPBM: Thing you find hardest in revision of your work?
