Book Hop and Follow Friday - 3/11

Question:  "If I gave you £50 (or $80) and sent you into a bookshop right now, what would be in your basket when you finally staggered to the till?"

Answer: For us, this question is easy.  We’d drop everything (including our parental responsibilities) and head to our favorite used book store.  For us the issue is more about what’s available on the shelves.  We have a list of our favorite books and if we could somehow manage to come across a dream used bookstore with unlimited inventory, our shopping cart would be filled with the following hardcover novels: Ender’s Game, Matilda, The Count of Monte Cristo, Catch-22, Never Let Me Go, Swallows and Amazons, Atlas Shrugged, Very good, Jeeves, Bridge to Teribithia, The Well of Lost Plots, and Persuasion.  These titles represent the best of what we don’t already have in our personal library and we’d be willing to contribute to the pot of money if necessary!

Soooo, not to sound presumptuous, but is the money coming in the mail, or what?

Question: Who are You the Boy/Girl, instead of You the Blogger?

Answer: Two Bibliomaniacs is the brain child of two married thirty somethings from the great state of northeast Indiana.  We (Evan and Erin) have been married for 10.5-ish years and have two young children.  We love Jesus, each other, and our kids, and are currently nursing a minor addiction to “Lost” and “Parks and Recreation”.  Yea, we’re kind of late to the game, but with the help of Netflix, we can boldly proclaim, “it’s better late than never”.  Oh, and we also like to read.  Everything else you need to know about us (or everything else we’re willing to reveal) is captured on this important (and not very well executed) PSA.  Click anywhere on this sentence to watch the video.
