Oh I just meant that he's a huge Patrick Ness fan! lol Same here, Dre, I used to feel much more fangirlish when I didn't know David at all! I much prefer being friends to being a fangirl though hehe!

You nailed it on the head with the celebrity thing.
If I was asked to choose to meet either Leo DiCaprio or Jo Rowling? I'd pick Jo Rowling :)

Yes, I really liked it! I haven't read the rest of the series yet, though.

Robert Lee | 5 comments The ret of the series is great! But the last book the death cure leaves lot's of Questions. And the Prequel is dumb. I wouldn't recommend. Overall good series tho.

I really enjoyed The Maze Runner, was a but let down by the sequel, but enjoyed the third book too :) They're making a movie, aren't they?

Caitlin (caitlinsiem) | 409 comments I was really blown away by Maze Runner and then I attempted the sequel and just couldn't get into it at the time. I might try it again some time though.

Jen (jenwesner) | 1222 comments Chris: Seriously huge woot! That is awesome!
Dre: I've had that happen from time to time with authors I mention in a tweet - it is such a compliment! Woot!

Need an opinion on a possible Woot situation:

Colleen Hoover, Jamie McGuire, and Abbi Glines will all be doing a book signing near me on Monday night. It's about a 2-hour drive but near where my parents live, so I can always stay overnight there if I want. I love those authors - should I go? I've never been to one of those things and I'm not really one to "fangirl" all over the place. Plus I'd be by myself (and I don't do well with that). But I can deal if those sorts of things are worth it. What do you think?

Saw this quote on Tumblr, and I just love it! So true!

“A bookstore is for people who love books and need
To touch them, open them, browse for a while,
And find some common good — that’s why we read.
Readers and writers are two sides of the same gold coin.
You write and I read and in that moment I find
A union more perfect than any club I could join:
The simple intimacy of being one mind.
Here in a book-filled room on a busy street,
Strangers — living and dead — are hoping to meet.”
— Garrison Keillortoz

This really isn't a Woot, woot thing (well maybe it is since she's okay) but Alison and I are having a lazy day today. Last night at play practice, she fell off the stage and was rushed to the ER. Thank god it wasn't too bad, but she busted up her lip good, needed stitches, and broke her two front teeth. So we'll be going to the dentist to get that fixed. She also bruised up her knee really good. UGH It was a very late night in the ER for us! She was so cute, though, she kept telling me she was sorry for falling! I assured her it was no big deal, and apologized for her inheriting my klutziness!

So anyways, she's a little drugged up today and we spent half the morning sleeping! I'm still in my Pjs and its 12:18!
