Average amount of time it takes you to finish a book: Usually two to three days.
How many of the above symptoms you regularly experience:
-"You read so late into the night that you lose track of time, and end up staying up till like three AM." Story of my life.
-"You've fallen in love with a fictional character." Too many times to count, I'm afraid. Although I think Sherlock Holmes tops the list haha(:

New Member!! *tacklehug* would you like a marshmallow? Also, if you liked 'I am the Messenger' you should read 'The Book Thief'. It's AMAZING.
"remember how we forgot?
remember how no one ever really died in the wars we fought?
because each gunshot came from our fingertips
and we never really kept them loaded, just in case
because each enemy was a friend and none of it was about oil, religion or land
it was all just pretend;
remember how we used to bend reality
like we were circus strong men
like our imaginations were in shape then
like we were all
ninjas trained in the deadly art of "did not"
like "i totally got you!"
"...did not"
remember how we forgot?

Hahaha(: Thanks for the warm welcome, coolerator, and sure, I'd love a marshmallow! Everyone tells me The Book Thief was good, so I've been meaning to get my hands on a copy for-ev-er, but it's always checked out at the library and then I just start reading another book and forget about it, and then I remember it again and it's still checked out. Haha, but I'll make it a priority and put it on hold(:

It's really amazing, but if you get too attached to anyone, you'll end up DYING. Of sadness. Just don't get too attached to any one character.

I'm not quite finished, but I've got the nagging suspicion that Rudy dies.

I'm pretty sure that Death tells you right from the beginning that he does. I cried, though, even though I saw it coming.

She really is. Sorry, lol, I know her in RL. She's sitting right next to me on my bed as I type xDDD

Her name for herself in real life is -firstnamehere- The Awesome. She's one of my besties. 83

Anyways, do any of you guys find it really annoying to dust books? It's like they're dust magnets -_-

Also, have any y'all read Molly Moon's Book Of Hypnotism? 8D Sorry, I have a major obvious (IRL) connection to the series. :3

Just finished reading "Prophet" and "Trapped at the Bottom of the Sea" by Frank Peretti. I loved both of 'em! :D Now I'm off to read "Secret of the Desert Stone" by the same author as the two books above. :)
