This is a meme hosted every Friday by Parajunkee, where book bloggers answer a question each week and check out how others answered it. It's a cool way for bloggers and viewers to connect and learn more about each other!
Question: Activity! Who do you want to be? If you could choose any character from a book. What do you think that character looks like and what do you have in common?
Answer:
Lola Nolan
From Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins
I know, I know I chose a Stephanie Perkins character last week, but she creates such vibrant, amazing characters! And Lola is so awesome. Here's what she looks like on the cover of the book...
I love her for so many reasons and think it would be absolutely awesome to be her! Here's why...
1) She has awesome hair. Seriously, I wish I could pull off having purple hair like her.
2) She sews all her own clothes and isn't afraid to have an eccentric style. Her fashion sense, from what I read, is pretty amazing.
3) She gets Cricket, who I have such a book crush on it's not even funny. And being able to climb from each others' windows with that little shelf in the closet? Yeah, that's just adorable :)
4) Did I mention her hair??
And that's who I'd be if I got to choose someone to be! Who'd you guys pick? I'd love to hear, so please share!!
her hair is pretty awesome.

ReplyDeleteI haven't read this book, but I did read Anna and the French Kiss so I can see what the appeal is.
