TOP TEN TUESDAY

http://brokeandbookish.blogspot.co.uk/2013/11/top-ten-things-we-are-thankful-for.html

This is my first Top Ten Tuesday post!  It's a great topic and not just because Thanksgiving is right around the corner.  I have so many reasons to be thankful :-).  In no particular order, here are the Top Ten Things I'm Most Thankful For:

1.  My loved ones -- This includes my amazing family, friends and everyone who makes my life better just by being in it.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!

2.  My job(s) -- I'm so fortunate to be able to love what I do and to do what I love.  My jobs as a dance teacher and writer are absolutely the best professions in the world.  Wouldn't trade them for anything.

3.  Eleanor & Park -- The best book.  It changed my life, broke my heart, put it back together again, and made me feel so much.  I'm thankful for the depth of raw emotion and to Rainbow Rowell for having the lady balls to put it all down on paper.


4.  The Ideas -- I don't know where they come from, but whether it be new choreography or a new story, I am so, SO grateful.

5.  Music -- Makes life worth living.  I <3 great music.

6.  People who hold the door open for the person behind them -- Politeness...always appreciated.

7.  J.K. Rowling and Harry Potter -- Two of my most favorite people, one b/c she opened my eyes to the world of books, the other b/c he made that world such a fantastic place to be :).

8.  Catching Fire -- Book or movie form, I'm just glad it exists!

9.  Richard Armitage -- Again, dwarf or human doesn't matter.  Yes, just yes.

10.  Warm socks on a cold night.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

POTTERMORE???



So, seriously, I am a Harry Potter fanatic!!!!! (and I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing J)

But anyway, I had to do a post about THIS new post from Reading Teen.

I'm so curious now.  What is Pottermore??  Is anyone else surprised that Yates decided to do the epilogue???  After movie 5, I'm still not his biggest fan, but I think doing this is the right thing.

Also, there's this:



Since I have no review ready (been doing a lot more writing than reading lately) and since this is just an awesome, AWESOME mystery, go on over and check it out!!!  Then come back here, and tell me what you thinkJ
