Hello there! I’m Lindsey Sparks. Welcome to my blog. I started book blogging so that I can remember more of what I read and take time to pause and reflect when I finish a book. I enjoy following other book blogs and adding to my ever expanding TBR list.
Random facts about me:
I am one of about five Okies who love hockey. (Go Pens!)
I’m obsessed with British history and literature.
I’ve dressed up as Hermione for Halloween on multiple occasions.
I once beat a group of elementary ed majors when playing a Harry Potter trivia game.
I’ve ridden an elephant, played with a baby tiger in someone’s living room, stuck my hand in a rhino’s mouth to feed it, and swam with dolphins.
But my precious cats Optimus Prime and Lucy are my favorite animals.
I’m an INTJ, so I like people to make sense. They usually don’t.
My reading tastes are eclectic and I always read more than one book at a time. Usually I’m in the middle of about four.
I was horrified when I found out The Baby-Sitters Club books used ghostwriters. I didn’t learn this until I was 27. I wish I had never known.
I love General Hospital. I’ve watched it for 15 years.
Favorite books, in no particular order:
– A Tree Grows in Brooklyn
– Pride and Prejudice
– Gulliver’s Travels
– Vanity Fair
– Bleak House
– Harry Potter
– Joy in the Morning
– A Little Princess
Favorite movies: Empire Records and Monty Python and the Holy Grail
I’m stuck in the ‘90s when it comes to music. I love: Stone Temple Pilots (the husband is not responsible for my crush on Scott Weiland, but it pre-dates my meeting Ryan), Local H, Everclear, the Offspring, Flyleaf, the Meat Puppets, the Toadies, Bleach, and many more. I’ve seen all of those except Everclear in concert.
Keep the conversation going:
