Friday Hops 11/11

Follow Friday! #36

Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee & Alison Can Read. It's a great way to meet new blogger friends!
Q.  In light of 11.11.11 and Veteran’s Day tell us about your favorite solider and how he or she is saving the world. Fictional or real life.
A. Mine would probably have to be my FIL, who is a National Guardsman. He's been overseas many times to fight in different wars, and we are always happy to have him come home.  He's definitely done a lot for his country!

My sister also served in the Navy. :)


TGIF at GReads #4

TGIF at GReads is a Friday Feature hosted by Ginger at GReadsBooks.com!

Love-Hate Relationship: Which characters from a book do you love to hate?

Ohhhh, mine would definitely be:

President Snow!

  1. Great TGIF answer, Christy! I considered adding him to mine, but decided two was enough since I added a quotation. I definitely enjoyed hating him when I was reading the series, though!

  2. Ugh, President Snow is EEEEVVVIILLL.

    You know the one literary character I can't stand? More than anyone else? Umbridge from Harry Potter. I'd rather have 10 voldemorts that awful, pink, little toad :D

    FF is going to make me cry this week, I know :/

  9. Happy Veterans Day
    My TGIF love to hate would be Umbridge, I really don't like her but I am creepily obsessed with her.

  11. Hopping through. Definitely President Snow! He is evil, but perhaps no more evil than others.

  20. President Snow is pure evil.

    Both of my Grandpas served in the military. It makes me so sad to think of all the men and women who didn't come home though.
