This week's question is:
Q: Happy Mardi Gras! If they were throwing the HOTTEST books off of a Mardi Gras float -- what would you do to have them throw to you…?
Happy Mardi Gras!
If I interpret "hottest" as the newest and most in demand books around, I would like them to throw me the Harry Potter hardbound set signed by J.K. Rowling and the cast! With my acceptance letter to Hogwarts ;)

If we're going for hottest, meaning "sizzling" stories, I'd love the Lords of Vice series by Alexandra Hawkins. I already read them on my Nook but I'd love to have paperback copies, signed of course. Or Julia Quinn's Bridgerton series. They weren't exactly the sexiest, but they really made me laugh and gave me good vibes the whole time I was reading them.
And...I would uhhh dance wildly like no one's watching until I catch the attention of the book givers while wearing my beloved black Hogwarts hoodie with the Hogwarts logo to stand out from all the revelers.
Or dance like a sprite or fairy. I've never dressed up like one!
But I'd ask them not to throw it at me during the revelry, that's going to be quite painful!
What about you, what's your pick? :)

Ooh, SIGNED copies of Harry Potter, nice! Although I think those would be pretty hard to catch if they were throwing them! And they would hurt if they hit you!

Love your blog layout, very clean!
DeleteThanks for dropping by. Yeah, those books would hurt! I hope we can convince them to just hand it over. Or we can just, you know...run up to them, grab the books, and run like hell. Hehe.
Happy weekend!
I wouldn't want books thrown at me either (ouch!). But I'll do anything for signed Harry Potter books. New follower via GFC. Here's my FF. Have a super duper Friday.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by!! Maybe if we, bloggers, come at them in full force they'd just drop in fear and run, leaving the books behind? ;)
DeleteFollowing you back! :)
Dancing in a costume might work! That'd be fun! :D Cats and zombies--awesome answers! :D My FFs are at LKHill or Musings on Fantasia. Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteDancing in a costume -- yes! But not cats and zombies hehe. I'm not a fan of zombies. I'm a scaredy cat!
DeleteHappy weekend!
Lots of dancing, good plan!
ReplyDeleteMy FF @ Kat Loves Books
Thanks Kat! Happy weekend :)
DeleteGreat answer!! Dressing up is a good idea!!

You're welcome :) Have a nice weekend!
DeleteHAHA I think my FF is a little off. Oh well. Harry Potter seems to be popular. I feel like I need to read those now so every Friday I don't feel left out. I haven't heard of the rest of the books or authors. Definitely checking those out soon cuz I love me some sizzling hot stories. Thank you for commenting 8) Old follower!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sharrice! :)
DeleteGreat idea! I think I would do the same too haha

Oh I think you're an old follower already? Thanks for dropping by :) I already follow you.
DeleteI've read quite a few Julia Quinn books but something out me off after a little while and I had to leave them alone for a wee while. Actually I think it is time for me to pick them back up again... :)
ReplyDeletePS - The Phantom of the Opera is a fun and fast read (at least for me it was). It isn't a lot like most of the movies or the musical though. Gaston Leroux was a reporter by trade so it has that kind of story telling feel too it :)
I'm a new follower :)
Oh curious, why did you put off Julia Quinn?
DeleteThanks for the info about Phantom of the Opera! :) Followed you back earlier. Thanks :)
Signed copies of any of them would be awesome! I think we need big nets to catch the books as they're being tossed so they don't hit us :) Thanks for stopping by this week. Old follower.
ReplyDeleteTraci @ Mad Hatter Reads
Hahaha I wonder how they'll react if they see our nets! Thanks for visiting back :)
DeleteI would love dancing as a fae. As long as I had imbibed first. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOld follower.
Maybe I'll meet you there, fellow supernatural being!
DeleteThanks for dropping by :)
Oh, Julia Quinn! I've just discovered her, and she is AWESOME! Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteFollow That Penguin!
She is awesome! She's one of my go-to historical romance authors.

You're welcome :) Have a happy week ahead of you Krista!
DeleteI LOVE Alexandra Hawkins! I actually have a signed book from her. I love getting signed and personalized books from my favorite authors. People do flash their bits at Mardi Gras and I've had friends who have visited and done it! Thanks for following me, I'm following you back on GFC.
ReplyDeleteAdria
I love your name, Adria. I have promised myself years ago that if I'll ever have a daughter, one of her names would be Adria. So lovely!
DeleteAnyway, how did you get an Alexandra Hawkins-signed book? You lucky girl!
Mardi Gras sounds crazy! I wish I can visit New Orleans!
Ha ha! great answer!
ReplyDeleteI went with throwing cats and zombie children!
