Sylvia Plath. I'd love to get into her mind for a day/night.
Imagine you're in a library and the whole world freezes over (The Day After Tomorrow, remember?). Which book would be the first to walk the plank?

Sylvia Plath. I'd love to get into her mind for a day/night.
Imagine you're in a library and the whole world freezes over (The Day After Tomorrow, remember?). Which book would be the first to walk the plank?
Good one!! Steinbeck's The Red Pony. Though that's only a novella so it wouldn't lend much warmth.
Same question!
The Audacity of Hope
What is the most important issue for today's societies to focus on?
The elimination of Ugg boots
If you were deserted on an island with one fictional character, who would you want it to be?
Robinson Crusoe
What is your favorite type of ship?
Madame Bovary. That'd learn her. :lol:
The same Q.
@Bien: a seaworthy one
@Satan: Hemingway's Old Man. He knows a thing or two.
If you needed consolation, what character's shoulder would you want to be crying on?
M. Myriel AKA Bienvenu
Would you have taken Jean Valjean in YOUR house?
No, doesn't matter who it is, I'm more concerned for my own safetly. Sorry big guy.
If Audrey Hepburn ran up to you right now (let's pretend she's alive) and said "Run away with me!" how would you respond?
"Demi Moore had it easy, but you're really pushing it, granny."
How would you react if Clint proposed you?
I meant in her young and beautiful form, obviously.
"I'm sorry, what was that? All I heard was ggggrrrrrrrrrr".
If you were being forced to marry a jane Austen character, who would you least want it to be?
:lol:
Why Jane Austen? Mmmph! Liz Bennet. The only Austen I ever read.
What if Erik the Opera Ghost decided to seduce you?
The only Austen? That's obvious- Liz is the best one, not the one you should want the least!
He'd be disappointed with my lack of vocal skills.
If Anna Karenina wanted to have an affair with you, would you?
If Sophie Marceau played her, yep.
What would stop you from falling in love with Heathcliff?
The fact that he's in love with crazy Cathy.
Would you fight Rochester for Jane?
Nope. Not for the Troubled Jane.
Do you sympathize with Tess?
I do, because some of her problems could have so easily been solved had she only had a little more faith in herself
Do you sympathize with Angel?
Maybe...
Would you defend a good book if someone started unfairly criticising it?
@CC: He's a stubborn fool. I pity him for that.
Of course I would! Like a true fanatic. If I had time for that, though.
Do you prefer tea to books or vice versa?
@Jazz: Of course!!
@Satan: Disgusting, vile piece of rot. I'd use a few choice words but I would be promptly removed from LitNet.
Same question.
Ouch! 'Twas lovely, aye. ;)
:rolleyes: What's the next question, sir?
Answer to earlier Q: Definitely books, they provide a much wider range of enjoyment (but I still love tea)
What would you like the next question to be?
Oh jeez. We're all out of sorts here!
@ Satan: I'll take my books, though they go best in combination with tea...and cats
Next question: Where is your favourite place to read?
My reading room, desk and bed.
Do you read in toilet?
A lady never tells.
What novel could you re-read an infinite number of times and never get tired of?
Middlemarch, 'cause I never end up finishing it. :goof:
The same?
The Crucible (yeah, I'll mention it a lot). Cry like a child every time. It's stunning.
If you could have any novel made into a film, which would you choose and why?
Not a novel, but The Divine Comedy.
If you had to watch a movie alone, which one would that be?
What do you mean had to? I choose to! I find that Casablanca is best done alone.
If you were Ilsa, would you have picked Victor or Rick?
Both, and then I'd have ménage à trois all over the world.
If you were an actor, would you lose 40lbs for a role?
:rolleyes: sigh.
That would depend on if I had 40 lbs to lose without becoming emaciated. If I did, sure. If I don't, I really wouldn't want to compromise my health for a job.
If you were an actor, would you shave your head for a role?
Christiane Bale did just that in The Machinist. "If you were any thinner, you wouldn't exist." Quite fitting a line too.
Yep. I wouldn't befriend skinheads in prison, though. Ed Norton learned it the hard way.
If you had the chance to kill a dozen people for your country, would you do it?
No. I love my country, but not 12 murders worth.
If you had the chance to kill one person without any fear of consequences, would you?
An innocent person? Nope. I can't live with something like that on my conscience.
If someone sponsored for a week worth of tour, which country would you land in?
Italy probably. Florence is calling my name.
If you had to pick a different country to live in, where would it be?
France. No gold for guessing that.
Are you a Renaissance-girl?
I don't know
How would you describe a Renaissance-girl?
I don't know either. A girl that escaped beheading during the French revolution? I kid!
Whose side would you be on if the horses declared war on us?
OH COME ON!! The horses, obviously. Who else would care for their wounded? :rolleyes:
If France decided to take over the world, whose side would you be on?
