About

I have an insane love for books and contests, which is why I made this blog.

Random facts: I have a soft spot for animals, especially cats. I'm also a music person. I listen to a variety of music: heavy metal, classical, Celtic, rock, easy listening...Jazz and country, though, no thank you! My mom and I hope to be moving into a town house within the year, which we are really excited about. I have my new bedroom all decorated in my head, with the walls black and dark red stripes. My favorite color is black. I have an extremely friendly cat named Raymie, who's favorite thing to do is eat. (We keep him on a strict diet to keep him from getting fat. I'm not an animal abuser.) I love, love, LOVE coffee and chocolate. I hate math and science, but good at spelling. I'm a little bit of a feminist.

Some of my...
