Day 25 – A character who you can relate to the most
Sigh, this is hard. I love a lot of fictional characters, but it's hard to think of myself in their shoes. Guess I'll just fall back on an old love, if only for one description of him. Lestat de Lioncourt, of whom someone once said something like "You just like to stir things up and see if they boil over and if God comes down and grabs you by the hair." For all that he is undead, Lestat is eternally interested in life and living-- he once got a fixation on a play and went around declaiming "Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow." He continually challenged his boundaries and his abilities. He describes himself as a "sensualist" but not necessarily in the sexual sense-- it's just that he is very attuned to his senses, especially as they've become hyper. So he can fall in love with the feel of satin and velvet, with music, with the smell of the night air. Oh, and he's also a brat. A Brat Prince, to be exact.
Day 26 – A book that changed your opinion about something
Day 27 – The most surprising plot twist or ending
Day 28 – Favorite title
Day 29 – A book everyone hated but you liked
Day 30 – Your favorite book of all time

I don't like textspeak, abusive language or personal attacks; if I see those comments I shall delete them. LOLspeak will be optional though :P Please stick to the topic as I shall also delete off-topic comments unless I deem the discussion so interesting I want to keep it.
