You know - I still haven't read or watched Beauty And The Beast. Am I missing something? Just wondering... And boy-o-boy - plenty of angsty college romance in MM! ;) (I have one of them lined up to read this month.)

Favorite Romance Genre: don’t know
Finished the line: I know I'm a book addict because....when I start reading, nothing else matter… not the fact that it’s 3 in the morning and I have to go to work in a couple hours, or that I have homework and school, or anything other than the book in my hands

I'm on a real spicy food kick at the moment - can't get enough of it.
I used to read until all hours and could still operate the next day. Unfortunately I've now hit an age where my sleep is absolutely essential if I don't want to embarrass myself at work with massive yawns or killer headaches :(

Oh no, does that mean I have to read now as much as possible (when I'm still youngish?) :p (not that you are old, women are never old, we are just getting more matured when years go by)

Oh I know what you mean. I read until barelly 12:30 last night, which is nothing compared to what I've done in the past, and had to get up at 6.Now I can't even concentrate. Workday is going to be a nightmare...


that's why friday and saturday nights are my favorite... if i'm not going out, it's a reading night ;)

Haha. Definitely my plan for tonight!!!
Oh....and welcome!!


I wish I could read in the morning. Sometimes I lie to myself and tell me that if I go to bed on time, I'll wake up on my own early and read. The truth however is that I'm more of a staying up late kinda person than waking up early... sometimes I think I was born to be a vampire or some other creature of the night... *sigh*

Hi Elena, glad I am not the only one who can get caught up in a great book. Although the book really has to suck me in lately or I won't even make it past 20 pages let alone stay up to all hours of the morning reading!

Favorite Color: Green

First Romance Novel Read (that you can remember): Uhh... I have a really bad memory... probably something by Eva Ibbotson or Jacqueline Wilson.
Favorite Romance Genre: Can I just say... everything ^-^ I can't choose between them. Also it really depends on my mood as to what I would read.
Finished the line: I know I'm a book addict because.... I leave everything to the last minute and make reading the book my first priority hence I am behind on tons of coursework and have to sleep at 4 or 5am to catch up for school the next day. Reading is my procrastination device :D

I am soooo familiar with that one! Hi Humaira!

I agree. A sucky book is just not worth the zombie eyes the next day...
