This week's question is: What is one thing you wish you could tell your favorite author?


MY ANSWER: Oh wow. Tough one! I've already met so many of my fave authors!! Instead of answering it directly, I will say that at RT I saw one of my many faves there and had to ask why she offed a character in her last book. Won't say who, because then you'll get a spoiler. But I was really liking this character and thought the character was good with the main character and then just as things were wrapping up...BAM! 

It made me cry! She said it even upset her editor. But it had to be done.





TGIF is a weekly feature created and hosted by GReads! that re-caps the week’s posts and has different question each week.
 
This week's question is: Literary Vacations: If you could take a trip this summer to any place within a fictional book, where would you go? Tell us about your summer dream vacation!


MY ANSWER: Uh, can you say Hogwarts?! Bound to be a popular pick today, but yeah. I'd sooooooo sooooo love to go to Hogwarts! Of course I would want to be a witch too. Or I suppose being a Muggle would work too! As long as I could do magic!!

I would even settle--settle, ha!--for the one in Orlando! I say ha, because I still want to go there really bad too!! Hoping when we next go to Disney World in some odd years that we could go there too! But yes, Hogwarts is my final answer!!

On a side note, any world where paranormal beings existed would work in a pinch for me as well! There's so many to choose from, I'm not real picky! As long as some hot paranormal can be my boyfriend at the same time too! ;)

  3. It's always tough when a favourite character dies, but I like the simplicity of the answer - It had to be done. Nice. :)

  10. I'm jealous that you've met so many authors! Here in Ottawa we get shafted... but I got to meet Kelley Armstrong last fall. That ought to hold me for while...

    Way to put that author on the spot Jess! LOL Have a great weekend!

  11. I think I'd quiz authors on why they made certain decisions. I'd also probably beg for spoilers from future works! I don't do TGIF, but what a fun question! Hogwarts would be pretty amazing.

    Old follower. Hope you enjoy your weekend!

  12. I would love to be able to ask my favorite authors about the memorable characters in books - I would probably start with Neil Gaiman.

  18. Oh yes, Hogwarts! I think this place, even without the actual magic, is just too magical to NOT want to visit. *_*

  26. I hate it when characters we really like have to die - it's always like "do they HAVE HAVE TO??!?!" but they have to stay true to their own stories I guess :( even if it makes us sad! SO excited you got to meet some authors in person - I've yet to do that!

    Hope you have an amazingtastic weekend, Jessica! :)

  28. Hogwarts, would be my dream vacation, but I don't know about summer vacation. I mean not many people would be their since they would all be home for summer, so I don't think it would be as much fun. But I would still go, if given the chance!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Awesome answers! I love how we both managed to mention something from Harry Potter lol :)

    Hope you have a great weekend and thanks for dropping by! :)
