It's #FriYayIntro time! @howjessreads

1. I love the soundtrack and parts of the film, but I don't enjoy Will Ferrell in Elf. I know, unpopular opinion!
2. Morning, but I'm considering switching to nights.
3. Lorene (pronounced Loreena).
4. Working at the bookstore all weekend. Tonight is downtown's Grand Illumination and we pass out cider and cookies. It's basically like working as an extra in a Hallmark Christmas movie.

thegirlwiththelibrarybag Do you enjoy Will Ferrell in other movies? 5y
MidnightBookGirl @thegirlwiththelibrarybag Nope. I don't dig his sense of humor. I can enjoy one of his movies if I'm in the right mood, but I'm not a fan. 5y
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @MidnightBookGirl, I always get sucked in by the trailers for his movies but it‘s never really been a good fit for me. I do enjoy Elf tho. (edited) 5y

kimmypete1 I don‘t hate Elf, but it‘s definitely not my favorite. 5y
CouronneDhiver Ugh. Elf is the worst 5y

I think I'm reading this mostly for the setting and the prose. Only Elizabeth has intrigued me so far. Simon is continually off-putting because no four-year-old is that precocious in thought process.

Why it pays to follow your favorite authors on FB. Although Littens also fill everyone in on good deals too! 📚❤️

UwannaPublishme I just read that Alice Hoffman is doing a book signing in November in southern Calif. If anyone lives around that area. 8y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @UwannaPublishme I wish I lived near there! 8y

#TBT 20 years ago today when I was reading Alice Hoffman and then went on a huge Nick Bantok binge.

LauraBeth I was as well 😀 8y
LeahBergen This is such a cool idea - I should look back in my book journal to see what I was reading, too! 8y
KVanRead I was reading those too! They were so much fun. 8y
