Crazy Things I’ve Done

For the Love of Books
Hi everyone! This is a topic that’s a little hard for me since I tend to prefer the easier ones that only require digging through Goodreads. I can confidently say I NEVER forget to eat, so that was out for this list, but I appreciated the suggestion. XD I really had to dig back to think of things to go on this list, but here we go!
- Went to the principal’s office in high school for reading The Eye of the World by Robert Jordan in math class.
- Carried around a red leather-bound edition of The Lord of the Rings trilogy for weeks in high school. I’m really lucky there weren’t more bullies.
- Planned multiple weekends and vacations around book conventions.
- Stood in a three hour line at one of said book conventions to get a really anticipated ARC.
- Bought a house partially based on the layout of one room in particular that I thought would accommodate a full wall of shelves (it did).
- Spent literal years trading and re-trading books to complete collections. I’m still working on one of them.
- Planned entire days around getting a book on opening day at a B&N an hour from my house on multiple occasions.
- Stood outside in Florida heat for two hours to meet Leigh Bardugo.
- Pre-ordered FIVE different editions of Finale including two book boxes, two UK exclusive editions, and the normal one from Amazon. Whoops.
- Woke up at a ridiculous hour to order one of the UK editions. I hate mornings.
