Question of the Week: Do you own any doubles of your books? What led you to getting that second...or third or forth...copy?

Not counting the books on my Kindle, I do have a few doubles of books that I ended up with through various reasons. A few of them are ARC's that I received for review and then I ended up buying a finished copy of the book or was gifted a copy. Like, I won an ARC of Daughter of Smoke and Bone, but then for Christmas a couple of years ago I was gifted a beautiful finished copy. I'll be sending my ARC to another friend, who has been wanting to get into this trilogy. I have two hardback copies of Delirium by Lauren Oliver, because of the cover change and I'm the type of person who likes for her covers to match. I'm keeping both of them, because I thought the original cover was interesting and pretty. 

I've also got two hardback copies of Stork by Wendy Delsol, one that was sent for review from the publisher and a copy that I bought myself because I don't even know why. I even have two copies of The Truth About Forever by Sarah Dessen, because I forgot that I had already bought a copy when BooksAMillion was having a sale and I picked the other up at a thrift store and I'll pretty much be passing that one along to my sister for a good summer read. And, finally, I have two copies of Carrier of the Mark by Leigh Fallon, one of them is an ARC (one of the first few ARC's that I received for review) and the other is a signed finished copy that I won in a giveaway that she was hosting during a YA Scavenger Hunt.  

I think that might possibly be all that I have, but I'm not even sure and so I'm not going to give you my word for sure. lol.

Question of the Week: Do you have any fun collections (other than books)?

I actually collect anything Doctor Who related, Paris France themed, or owls. I am absolutely nutty about these three things and I totally have to have them in my life, in some form. Like with my Doctor Who collection I have the comics (both Classic and New Who), some of the books (featuring the 9th and 10th Doctors), socks, a tumbler, and a little lego Amy Pond. I have a ton of different things that have owls on them and even a couple of stuffed owls. And it's sort of the same with the Paris France themed things, like recently I bought a wall calendar for the new year that is Paris themed and I also have this really pretty vintage Paris themed looking trunk that I use for storage which I got from the Meamu of Awesome last Christmas.  

I am also nuts about fingernail polish, to the point where I probably have enough to open up my own salon, but hey I'm totally good with it. I am always having to do a yearly culling of that stuff because you know it can tend to go bad after a while. lol. I have all different kinds of colors and all different brands, but my favorites are OPI, China Glaze, and Orly.

Feature & Follow Friday: Who Is Your Blogger BFF?!

Follow & Feature is an awesome way to gain new followers, make new bloggy friends, and just have a lot of fun! It's run by two fabulous hosts, Rachel @ Parajunkee's View and Allison @ Allison Can Read. Every Friday, they'll feature two blogger's you should get to know and have a discussion question where you can link up and get to know other's.

This week's two feature blogs are...

Katie @ Worn Down Glories is one of my favorite people that I've gotten to know. She's just really all kinds of awesome and she's also a co-blogger pal of mine at Growing Beyond YA. You guys should check out her blog and get to know her better, chat her up on Twitter, and Facebook her. She's got a lot of new things to offer coming up on her blog this year and I think it's going to be pretty amazing, even if I am a little bias because she's got such FANTASTIC tasted in books and we have a lot in common. I met her through another blogging bestie of mine and they are an ADORABLE couple whom I love and support tons!

Question of the Week: Who is your blogger BFF? Tell us a little bit about him or her? If not tell us why you need or don’t need a blogger BFF.

I would definitely have to say that Molli @ Books & Whimsy, Katie @ Worn Down Glories, Angie @ Disquietus Reads, and Marie @ Ramblings of a Daydreamer are definitely my blogging besties. I love these girls so much and it's been a ton of fun blogging with them and getting to know them, because they don't just challenge me when it comes to books, but they also challenge and inspire me personally. I've known Molli the longest out of all of them, which means we're probably the closest in a lot of different ways, but I also adore the friendships that I've created with the other's. Marie makes me want to write, she's so super talented and I'm really enjoying reading her book Waiting for the Storm, in fact I'm hoping to finish it before this weekend is over. Angie's tweets always crack me up and I love the way that she encourages me to read a little bit out of my comfort zone, she loves to dish about our story General Hospital, and she's just incredibly feisty. Katie's more laid back and quiet, but she's pretty damn awesome too. I know I can always count on her if I really need someone to talk to and that means a lot. I've learned a lot about life and blogging about books through my friendships with these awesome gals. I wouldn't trade ANY of it for the world.
