Emma by Jane Austen Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee Fifth Business by Robertson Davies Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte I'm a lover of the classics ;)

I'm going to be there all four days, along with my husband and two boys. We don't have a set in stone itinerary, but there is one major panel each day we want to hit, anything else we're doing in a "we'll see how the day goes" kind of plan. Our boys are 3 and 4, so a lot will depend on how...

Believe it or not, the waiting in line is some of the fun. I was at Celebration V in Orlando, and met some wonderful people in our line ups, some I'm still friends with and am looking forward to seeing again at Celebration VII. You're not outside in the heat, you'll likely be able to sit while...

I'm heading down with my family and a group of friends for 10 days, arriving the 15th and leaving the 25th. We're doing the con all four days, then after a wind down day on Monday, heading to the parks Tuesday and Wednesday. I'm so excited I started packing yesterday, lol.

The Pendergast books by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child are amazing; anything by Jeffrey Deaver; Dean Koontz's earlier books (his more recent books have gotten a bit repetitive); and anything by Greg Iles. All are what I would consider page turners, good mystery/suspense.

On our first (and only so far) Disney cruise on the Magic in 2011, my husband and I were in line to have our pictures taken with the Mickey Statue. In front of us was a family, (mom, dad, two daughters) who turned out to be regular customers when my husband worked at a video store over a decade...

My nieces love the Ivy & Bean books, there's about ten of them and they're really cute. They also enjoy Geronimo Stilton, they're a little more silly but also fun to read. My husband and I made a promise long ago that we'd always buy books for the kids on their birthdays. We've done ok so far!

It depends on what you like to read, but here are a few that I absolutely loved: The Book Thief by Markus Zusak A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden A Game of Thrones (and the rest of the series) by George R.R. Martin My Name is Memory by Ann...

The Inkheart books by Cornelia Funke (I think there are three) Mrs Frisby and the Rats of Nimh by Robert C. O'Brien Anne of Green Gables by Lucy Maude Montgomery (there are 8 total in the series) all my other favourites have been named already!

you may have read some of these already if you love to read, but they are some of my favourites and worth looking into if you haven't: The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden Swann Song by Robert McCammon The Time Traveller's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger My...

I have a top five, because I can't pick just one. Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden Swan Song by Robert McCammon The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold Emma by Jane Austen The Stand by Stephen King

1. a cruise through the Greek islands. I've been fascinated by the history and the architecture for years, and would love to see it all in person 2. Lake Como, Italy. Most of Italy really, but Lake Como particularly. I'm a huge Star Wars fan, and while the prequel trilogy may not appeal to...

I Hope This Gets to You by The Daylights Wouldn't It Be Nice by The Beach Boys The Rainbow Connection by Kermit the Frog They're my happy songs :)

My So-Called Life Firefly Life I've been watching Life with my husband on Netflix, and I know we're going to be upset once we get to the end of it. It's just so well written!

Sadly this isn't limited to libraries. I used to work in the children's section of a large book store, and there were countless times that parents would leave their children at the store for hours at a time, to run errands, or even to go to the movies. We had signs saying that children were...

I am extremely allergic to cats, and while I used to have one growing up, I can't have them anymore. Which I hate, because I absolutely LOVE cats. When I do go to people's homes who have a cat (and some dogs), I have to remember to take an allergy pill before I go, and I can't let myself...

Clarisse, the female chipmunk. And I agree with Bernard and Bianca!

My husband's grandparents had a house on Manitoulin Island. I never got the chance to see it myself, but I've heard it's beautiful. As for me, add me to the list of Disers from Ottawa, only I'm on the eastern end of the city in Orleans.

Fresh baked bread, lemons, and that crisp smell in the air just before it's going to snow
