You know, I didn't honestly think Where the Wild Things Are was that bad... I thought it was kind of- I don't know, compelling, kind of sweet in its odd, strange way. >.> call me a weirdo (lots of people do) but I thought it was pretty good :)

Yesss~ I love how they made the Cheshire Cat in the movie. 8D 8D

When I go to the library I'm like a zombie.

-Arms outstretched to all the books-
Must...Eat Read......

I know!!! I love the Cheshire Cat.. I looked up at a crescent moon one night, and it reminded me of his smile.. :D

I like libraries because you don't have to buy the books, but you have to bring them back... :`( I think I'd rather buy all my books, but AFTER I've already read them so I know they're good.

And I make it an absolute RULE for myself never to see the movie before reading the book. I did that once (inkeart) and I hated myself for it. XP

I'm so glad I made this thread; I've got all sorts of book ideas for next time I go to the library!!! :D

seriously though, anyone have any ideas on how to chose my mini-dictators? XD (mini-mod is too boring, lol)

Time spent every day reading: at LEAST an hour, usually three or four
How many of the above symptoms you regularly experience: I whisper "that's not what happens in the book" to random strangers at the movies, i get so caught up in books that i react majorly to the endings, i read late into the night all the time, even on school nights, i've read numerous books cover to cover in one sitting, and i've lost count of how many book characters i've fallen in love with. WOO BOOK-LOVERS!!

I've got to hold some kind of random contest to see who gets to be a mini-dictator; I'm accepting five. XD

Okay... let's see here...
here is a random book quiz. Whoever gets the highest score wins. (I trust you guys not to lie about your scores :P)
here it is: Random Book Quiz of Awesomeness
incidently, I got 9/15 correct xD but my score doesn't matter since I'm already supreme dictator for life! (and ranger, you have to take the quiz too. I guess it's not really fair if you get to be a mini-dictator without taking it... XD)

WELCOME CAT!
by the way, it's just the invention of hugo cabret, without the "extraordinary" XD

I'm going to keep track of all of your guys' scores on the front page of the thread, and when everybody (or most everyone) gets their scores in, I'll chose! :D (freakishlyesterday, I think you've almost definitely scored a place as a mini-dictator XD)

by the way, have any of you guys read Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli? (I know you have, Cat :D) I loved that book... I've read it twice now.

OH MY GOSH, how could I have forgotten Holes by Louis Sachar? now THAT is an amazing book. The plot was so original, so amazing! I've read THAT one at least four times. *runs off to edit booklist AGAIN*
