  2. Interesting choices! I'm curious about the Mercy book as well, but I remember last year I wasn't as thrilled as I hoped to be. Might give it a try on the Kindle though since it might cheaper!

    Here's my Hop and Follow Friday

    Have a GREAT weekend!

  4. Thanks for stopping by my blog. It's interesting that you picked Spanish as your favorite-it seems like hardly anyone chose foreign language for their pick. I hope you had great teachers!

  5. Ha! I should've done a breakdown like you. It totally depends on which part of school we're talking about haha.

    Happy Friday!

  8. Grad school: Nothing.

    LMAO! I love it! Yeah, my answer didn't really apply to grad school because I'm not going to grad school for my favorite subject. But there have been some okay classes. I think my favorite class in grad school will be my last one which I will take in the summer. It has to do with Young Adult readers and books, and hey! I read that stuff all the time so it should be easy peasy! I hope!

    Old follower...hope to see you around soon!

  13. Hey~Thanks for hopping by my blog; glad to "meet" you. So, Patricia Briggs, Mercy Thompson series is a favorite of yours I see. One of my very best friend's husband, Dan Dos Santos, did the illustration for all of the covers; in fact, it was only a few months ago that the painting for this book was on his easel!!

    I was shocked to come upon your blog and find that this book was the answer to your question. I also love shifters, but haven't read this series yet; now I might have to!!
