Friday Fill-ins
Janet is the Host of Friday Fill-Ins. All I have to do is fill in the gaps. My answers are in bold.
And...here we go!
1. The crickets sing, whereas I'd rather sit quietly and read since my singing leaves a little to be desired.
2. Come out! Come out! wherever you are. (Reminds me of the child catcher, in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang for some odd reason). Did you know Ian Fleming wrote this? I've never read his original, non-hyped-up-like-the-film, version. Although, I always loved the film as a child. Now, this book is also on my Friday Finds too, because I'd love to read it. It's got gangsters, secret underground lairs, and of course a car with a mind of its own, that can swim and fly! GASP! I ask you, what more could you want?
3. I want to get far away from the reality of life, and escape into magical adventures of my next book!
4. I was once in charge of the CIA's top secret underground Forensic Science Department and outwitted some of the most notorious criminal minds ever known; this was a dream.
5. But as for me, I can't get enough chocolate to sustain my reading habits. Please send your donations to...
6. You don't know where I come from, and if I tell you I'd have to shoot you. It's CIA policy you know!
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to reading, no surprise there, tomorrow my plans include join in with the 24-four-hour-read-a-thon, (link can be found in the sidebar on the right) and Sunday, I want to probably have a sleep!
What are your answers?

Have a fun weekend.
Hugs, Dianne

ReplyDeleteMariposa's Friday Fill-Ins
marites -- I don't know if *I* can do it either, but hey, I'll try. I just know, however, I am going to be asleep on my keyboard before the 24 hours are out!
ReplyDeletegautami tripathy, it certainly does, Stanley. Oh, haven't watched Laurel and Hardy, in ages. Not sure where that (Stanley) came from either...
ReplyDeleteMariposa,
ReplyDeleteThank you! One day I may even tell you about my near death experience with the copycat killer...who I bombed, sliced and diced and then got handy with my AK47...one day...if you are extremely unlucky!
The book looks good! Good luck with the read-a-thon : )
ReplyDeleteI love you answer for #3. I like how reading can bring you to whole new worlds
ReplyDeleteI can relate to number 5. I'm a chocoholic too. Thanks for stopping by my site. Have a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteHere's mine.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend everyone!
