Friday Five and TQB`s First Ever Giveaway!

Apr 30, 2010
friday-five-and-tqbs-first-ever-giveaway

Keeping with my daily blogging, I give you Friday Five (among other things ;) )! I have to admit though that I’m a bit bummed I missed last week’s because I think it had more interesting questions, but I suppose this will have to do. I apologize if my answers aren’t very intriguing. The questions to me were kind of blah. :P

  1. What is your favorite red food?
  2. When were you last caught red-handed?
  3. What’s your nicest red article of clothing?
  4. Who’s got the loveliest red hair?
  5. What are your thoughts on the 2002 Baz Luhrmann film Moulin Rouge!?

1. My favorite red food– that’s a bit difficult, assuming it actually has to be red, red and not red, like in red meat. I’m not a huge fan of apples and therefore, I can’t say that and I really can’t think of anything else other than red meat that would effectively access this question.

2. Oh wow, that’s an interesting question. I’m not sure! I haven’t lived at home for so long that being caught red handed isn’t something that I’ve had to worry about.

3. My nicest red article of clothing is probably my tube top shirt. I love it a lot because it’s quite classy and very comfortable as well.

4. I’d have to say that I think Addison from Private Practice has really nice red hair. It’s so vibrant and red. I love it.

5. Moulin Rouge was okay for me. I didn’t think it was OMG amazing, but it did have it’s moments.

Giveaway

As many of you know, I have been trying to figure out what exactly it is I’d like to give away from TQB’s first giveaway. After a lot of thought and suggestions from those around me, I’ve finally come to a decision. A large part of my decision is my realization as to how little this particular activity occurs in this day and age, unless forced by the educational body, I thought it only fitting to promote what I feel deserves a little more time from all of us, particularly the younger generation. In any event, I do hope that you all enjoy this giveaway and should you have any suggestions (within reason- $10-$20) as to what you’d like to be seen given away in the future, please feel free to suggest them.

Giveaway Details

I am giving away a $20 Barnes & Nobles gift card to one randomly selected winner!

As a book reviewer, there are so many books I want to read, but I think right now, I am loving Julie Klassen, I think I’ll get her newest book. Her historical fiction books are so beautifully written, she just brings the characters to life in a way few authors can

If I had extra money, a giveaway would be nice to host. =]
But yeah. The book I’d really like to read is Eye Contact, by Cammie McGovern.
I want to read it because, I love thrillers, and I have a special interest in autism. This book combines both. It’s about two children going missing. One is found alive, and the other is dead. The only witness is the living child, who has autism and therefore a “silent witness”.

The one book I’d like to read is Where the Heart Is by Billie Letts. I loved the movie that it is based on and actually just got this in the mail so I will be reading it soon. I haven’t done a lot of reading lately because I’ve been busy but I’m hoping this one will get me back into reading, as it was something I used to love. I want to read it to see if it is better than the movie, which usually books are better than the movies to me.

I would love to read Mennonite in a Little Black Dress: A Memoir of Going Home by Rhoda Janzen. It is written by my close friend’s professor. I watched a few videos which feature conversations with the author and she seems very interesting. My friend absolutely loved having her as a professor. It was also given praise by Elizabeth Gilbert (who wrote Eat, Pray, Love) and I adore her. It is next on my list to read.
