Which titles are you?

On my morning blog-round I discovered this fun little meme at Bookgirl's Nightstand - http://www.bookgirl.net/ - and I can help myself...
The idea is to fill in the rest of the sentence with a title of a book read in the past year.

In school I was: Anne of Green Gables
- at least in my imagination.. (by L.M. Montgomery)

People might be surprised I’m: A Fraction of the Whole (by Steve Tolz)

I will never be: The 19th Wife(by David Ebershoff)

My fantasy job is: Cooler, Faster, More Expensive (by Peter York and Olivia Stewart-Liberty)

At the end of a long day I need: Guilty Pleasures (by Laurell K. Hamilton)

I hate it when: I Am Charlotte Simmons (by Tom Wolfe)

Wish I had: The Swimming Pool Library (by Alan Hollinghurst)

My family reunions are: An Education (by Lynn Barber)

At a party you’d find me with: The Three Musketeers (by Alexandre Dumas) or The Sopranos (by Alan Warner)

I’ve never been to: The Oregon Trail (by Francis Parkman)

A happy day includes: Friends, Lovers and Other Indiscretions - well skip lovers and my it friends and my boyfriend... (by Fiona Neill)

Motto I live by: Sense and Sensibility (by Jane Austen)

On my bucket list: Wedlock (by Wendy Moore)

In my next life, I want to be: The Brightest Star in the Sky - I admit, I haven't ret it yet but it will be landing in my mailbox very soon! (by Alan Warner)

Now it's your turn - fill it out and post a comment so that I can pop by your blog and read your answers!

  1. That is great. I love your "I hate it when I am Charlotte Simmons."

    Did you like that book? I can't remember if I finished it or not. I picked it up a few year ago but remember thinking it sounded as though Wolfe was writing 18-year-olds as he thought they sounded and not as they actually were. I'm curious if it got better.
