TotallyCaesar`s 2011 Book Recap
I have read so many amazing books this year. This here is a list of my favourites (which is probably going to be every single one, but…oh well.) Keep in mind, these aren’t every book I read, so if I miss a few months, don’t be alarmed.
From January 11th to February 10th 2011, I read the Harry Potter series by JK Rowling from start to finish for the first time. Ever. I know, it...

Confessions - Day 9
Day 9: What you thought of your current best friend when you met them.
In kindergarten, when I met my best friend, I thought she was the nicest person I’d ever met. In grade one, when we actually became friends, I realized she was the nicest person I’d ever met. I love her like a sister.

Hunger Games - Day 10
Day 10: Peeta or Gale?
HA! That’s simple. Finnick.
But, just for the record, Peeta.

Day 9: Your favourite quote.
Oh, why make me choose? There are a few…
“District 12: Where you can starve to death in safety.”
“I pull an arrow, whip the notch into place, and am about to let it fly when I’m stopped by the sight of Finnick kissing Peeta. And it’s so bizarre, even for Finnick.”
“Oh, Peeta, Don’t make me sorry I restarted your heart.”-...

Day 8: Something you’re paranoid about
So. Many. Things.
Weeping Angels in general. Those things are freaky! (it doesn’t help that the first ever episode of Doctor Who watched was The Time of the Angels, the second was Flesh and Stone, and the third was Blink. I was pretty convinced they were always around, and that they were just going to be following me around sometime. So...

Day 8: The character you are most like.
I wasn’t sure, so I took a quiz… and apparently I’m most like Rue, a lot like Peeta, somewhat like Katniss, and a little like Gale. I took a different one, and I got Rue again.
So I guess I’m most like Rue. I can deal with that.

The awkward moment when… you realize half-way through re-reading City of Glass that you’ve been picturing Sebastian Verlac as Sebastian from Glee, and you’re not totally sure why.
(I think this was happening, not because they’re both called Sebastian, but because they’re just both so damn charming!)

Day 7: A scene that made you cry.
Oh, there were so many. Rue dying, Finnick dying, Prim dying, and even the epilogue, because it was the end of the series. Basically all of Mockingjay, actually…

Hunger Games - Day 6
Day 6: A scene that made you laugh.
Again, I have two that tie. The first was when we’re first introduced to Finnick and he’s the sexy half-naked tribute that you can’t decide whether or not to like, and the second is, of course the infamous Finnick Odair in his underwear scene. It was adorable, because Finnick was usually so strong and so damn narcissistic that he’s just...

Day 5: Favourite memory
This one’s difficult, too…but I think my favourite was when I saw the Broadway musical Wicked. It was the first show I’d ever seen live, and it was absolutely incredible. I’d been listening to the soundtrack for years, and it was definitely one of the most amazing days of my life - especially because I’d seen the final Harry Potter movie at...

Day 5: Favourite fight/battle scene.
I have a few, I think, that tie. The first isn’t exactly a fight, but: near the end of Mockingjay, when Katniss shot Coin instead of Snow. I was surprised, shocked, speechless, and so damn proud of her.
I also loved the feast in the first book. The intense pressure I felt to want Katniss to make it back to Peeta, the bit with Thresh saving her, it was...

Day 4: Best dream.
…
This is really hard (that’s what she said) difficult, because I’ve had SO MANY awesome dreams. But I guess the best would have to be when I went to Hogwarts with just about every fictional character my mind could apparently think up, and a bunch of real people, too. Darren Criss, Aaron Tveit, and Tyler Brunsman were among the real people, while characters...

Day 4: A character you love that everyone hates.
Um…honestly I’m not totally sure. In Catching Fire most of my friends hated Finnick when they first met him, but I loved him right from the start. But that doesn’t really count, because it’s not like they STILL hate him. Uh - I don’t know a lot of people who like Haymitch, and I think he’s hilarious.

Day 3: Something you wish you could forget stop thinking about.
That someday, my best friend might die before I do. Or I might die before her. And one of us will be leaving the other behind.

Today, I was sitting in my room, reading and minding my own business, when I suddenly heard the TARDIS sound effects. I immediately ran down the hall, hoping the Doctor had finally turned up, but turns out, it was just my non-Whovian sister and her boyfriend, who’d just turned on the TV, which had been left on the space channel. Needless to say, I was extremely upset. When she asked why...

Day 2: Worst nightmare.
When I was little, I had the same nightmare at least once a week. The dream itself doesn’t make sense in the slightest, but I was always terrified of it when I was small. There was a truck in it - a huge monster truck - that didn’t move anywhere, just relentlessly revved its engine. I ran around, trying to hide from the noise, but to no avail. Eventually...

Day 3: A character you hate that everyone loves. Oh, damn it. I guess I could go with Gale, but not everyone loves him. And I don’t exactly hate him, either, it’s just that…well…I don’t know. I was actually kind of in a bad mood every time he came into the text in Mockingjay, just because everything he said, it was like he was trying to convince Katniss that he was...
