Crushes: THE PATRICKS! (Rothfuss and Ness)
That's really a great family! :) think I'd like to have Gaiman and Rowling in my lit-family, too. And I totally get your crush on Patrick R. - I mean, his beard is just epic!
ReplyDeleteHIS BEARD IS EPIC. Yes. That is crush-worthy on its own. ;P
ReplyDeleteAh!! I love it so much. I'm sad, I've been working Wednesdays recently and have missed out on Tea Time, but I'm so glad you decided to do this as a book chat. I def have to think on it and get back to you...I'll do a vlog. I'll likely have some of the same players, but not necessarily in the same rolls (accept, I may have to 3rd the Gaiman dad bit).
ReplyDeleteTotally agree with you on Rachel Hawkins! She would be the fun cousin.
ReplyDeleteI am the aunt that undermines the parents! I totally sneak candy to my nephews when my sister isn't looking.
So we're going to be related a couple times over, eh, Heidi? =D
ReplyDeleteMoirae - that's the only kind of aunt to be... ;P
I cant believe I did not watch this video sooner. I am working on a blog post for this to post next weekend.
ReplyDeleteI missed that episode of TeaTime must go back and watch it.
My real life I am an only child with two parents and not that many relatives that I speak or see often. My Lit family is my true family. (ADOPT ME PLEASE)
When you watch the Tea Time, it's pretty late in the video when we started talking about lit families, just to let you know. =D
