1. Bilingual (French & English). Took Spanish in HS & loved it. I‘ve been using Duolingo off/on since October last year. I‘d like to be fluent.
2. Christmas Glitter by Ann B Harrison. All books I‘ve read so far this year have been great. No bad choices yet.
3. I admittedly skipped supper last night. Wasn‘t feeling 100% 😬😒
4. 💖📚🤣

GHABI4ROSES Thanks for the tag! We have been going HAM on the Long Sprints, about 8 hours so far today!

1. English; disappointing Arabic; enough French; need to repair my Spanish (I am an aspiring Coyote).

2. The have all been five stars, but I believe I had finished Wuthering Heights, first.

3. Probably at least the primary colors, mainly green!

4. 📚 🌈 🙏 (the face with hearts is close).

Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES Thanks for the tag 😊 The languages are impressive, I‘ve only got a little French. (edited) 4y
DieAReader Thanks @Andrew65 I unintentionally let my French get a little rusty over the past 10 years as I had very little opportunity to speak it where we lived. Now it‘s mostly the lack of confidence that‘s missing. Im getting back into it slowly even though I mainly speak English most of the time lol. 4y
GHABI4ROSES Thanks, @andrew65 but I really am rough on them!! 4y

Doing this a bit early!
1. 4th grade. Our class did a play- Julius Caesar, complete with costumes and scenery. Same teacher also read us Harriet the Spy, which became my favorite book at the time. I loved her so much I invited her to my house for dinner. (And she came)
2. Shop class. I made an awesome lamp!
3. Yep- Two daughters and a son
4. Maude Island. In Alaska. One acre. Private.

1. This is a tough question. I would have to say it is a tie between Sweet Home Alabama and the original Beauty and the Beast.
2. Trip to Disney
3. True Crime
4. Pink and Purple
5. What is your favorite author that you always recommend to people?
Happy Friday Everyone!!!
#friyayintro

Kaye John Irving, Pat Conroy, Wally Lamb. 6y
LittleBug Nalini Singh, cause so few people know her. Harlan Coben, because most people I know don‘t like to read PNR or fantasy (cause Robert Jordan would have been my pick for that genre) 6y
Guildedearlobe Will McIntosh. Love Minus Eighty is the book I recommend to people who want to try science fiction but haven‘t read it before. 6y

1. Errands, then hibernation in the A/C. It's crazy hot here.
2. Love sunset.
3. I love the beach, but I'm in the Midwest, so I don't see it often. I was meant to live by the sea, I'm pretty sure.
4. Brown. Dull, blah, boring, just brown. Mixed with a little platinum. 😉

1. I loved anything on PBS. Zoom, Arthur, Out of the Box, Zaboomafoo, etc. 🤓
2. What I Was Doing While You Were Breeding - Kristin Newman ... I actually don't know if it's my favorite, but it's the first one that popped into my head 😂✈
3. Cilantro & spicy foods 😷 Other than that I'm pretty open
4. Just everyday being a good day... I know that sounds cheesy but I mean it 😂

1) Crunchy (preferably flamin' hot)
2) Probably The Call, but I've already read a lot of great books this year!
3) Might go out to eat with my family, do a bit of shopping for #MyBloodyValentine , and of course read!
4) Speak every language because it's always more difficult to communicate with humans in my experience.
5) don't have one, but considered minoring in gender studies.

britt_brooke @BookBabe I think I read about a quarter of it, but you‘re right, it was depressing. I bailed because I wanted more memoir and less social commentary. 6y

britt_brooke @ReadOrDieRachel I just couldn‘t handle all the sweeping generalizations. I expected more from an ivy-league educated person. 6y
Booksnchill @britt_brooke scorpio here as well and as to Hillbilly Elegy- I am from Appalachia, I also went to law school and I had such problems with this book- perhaps more with the way it has become the “answer” for rural white backlash- I finished it but I thought the 1st 1/2 of American Fire was better! (edited) 6y
readordierachel That was EXACTLY my problem. He even says in the intro that he didn't do the research needed to support those kinds of generalizations, and then he goes ahead and makes them anyway! 6y
