Making Up For Monday: Good Books

It's time for Making Up For Monday! This is a weekly meme hosted by me that asks some fun literary questions. Feel free to play along!

This week's question: Read any good books lately?

I feel like I get this questions ALL THE TIME! As an avid reader, people know that I read a lot and I guess that one way to start a conversation. However, since my daughter was born, I haven't had time to read, or the energy to stay awake when I do have time. So I haven't been reading nearly as much as I used to. But I did recently read a book I really enjoyed.  It was Go Set A Watchman.  Check out my review here.

What about you?  Read any good books lately?

Making Up for Monday: Non-Reading Hobbies

It's time for Making Up For Monday! This is a weekly meme hosted by me that asks some fun literary questions. Feel free to play along!

This week's question: What is your favorite hobby (outside of reading)?

It used to be scrap-booking, but it's been years since I have done that.  I do want to start that up again because of my daughter. She's so photogenic that it should be easy to fill a book! 

I am also a writer.  I currently have 5 different projects in the works.  I am hoping to complete one by the end of the year.  Fingers crossed!!!!

What about you?

Making Up For Monday: Not So Heroic

It's time for Making Up For Monday! This is a weekly meme hosted by me that asks some fun literary questions. Feel free to play along!

This week's question: Who is your least favorite hero-esque character and why?  

I know it's an unpopular choice, but I have got to say Harry Potter. I thought Harry was obnoxious, whiny, and super stuck up. I felt like he treated so many kids exactly like Draco. He drove me crazy as a "hero" and I found myself completely unattached to his character by the end of the series. Seriously, if Harry had died at the end, I don't think it would have even phased me.  I can see why so many love Harry and that's okay with me, I just wasn't a big fan. 

What about you?  What "hero" is not your favorite?
