Show & Tell: Where do you grab a book and get lost in it? Show us your favorite spot you like to read at.

I really should have looked at this question before it was dark and rainy outside because my favourite reading place is on the porch or down the road on the beach!  I live in a really small space so most of what I do is on my bed.  It's my reading spot, but also my computer spot and watching Netflix spot and everything else. 

So that's my bed complete with books, Kindle and my kitty Chavez.  She's not nearly as huge as that shadow there makes her look, but she's pretty big, yeah.  She also hates me reading, typing, or doing anything that involves 'not petting her.'

Also, yes, that's a baseball bat between the side table and the bed.  Don't you guys keep weapons against monsters near by at all times?

Follow My Book Blog Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read to feature a different blogger every week and let all of us stop by to say hi! 



This week's featured blogger is Sophie at Life Between Pages.

Q.If you could have characters from a particular book meet and form an epic storyline with characters from a particular TV series, which would you choose and why? 

....it's a terrible answer, I know, but I want the Scooby Gang from Buffy the Vampire Slayer to meet the Cullen family from Twilight.

On a less obvious note, how about Kat and her friends from Heist Society hanging out with the crew of Serenity from Firefly?  I think Kat could give Mal and his crew a few tips on successful stealing!

Book Blogger Hop is a weekly meme hosted by Crazy for Books that allows us to connect with and support other book bloggers who love books just as much as we do!

“What is your favorite spooky book (i.e. mystery/suspense, thriller, ghost story, etc.)?”

Well, the most recent ghost story that I absolutely loved is Maureen Johnson's The Name of the Star.  Spookiness and hilarity.  What could be bad?

My other two favourite spooky books are ones I mention all the dang time so I feel badly, but hey, people should read and know about them!  So they are Pamela Dean's Tam Lin and Mira Grant's Feed.  They're completely different types of creepyness.  Tam Lin is all about faeries and Halloween! and seeing what you shouldn't and trying to deal with the supernatural while Feed is a zombie thriller that you probably shouldn't read in the dark. 

I look forward to seeing your answers!  Be sure to link me to your Follow Friday posts so I can see.  :D
