If you were to dress up as a literary figure {author or character} for Halloween, who would it be? (submitted by Michelle @ Life Among the Pages)

Well it would have to be a character for me, and it would most likely be Scarlet from Cress (Lunar Chronicles) by Marissa Meyer. I loved reading these Chronicles. 

So which would you dress up as? {author or character} for Halloween? Please Share.

You are suddenly transported into a future time in which (horrors!) books are unknown. How would you explain books, and how wonderful they are, to the people of that time? (submitted by Maria @ A Night's Dream of Books)

Oh No Way!! First of all I would hope that I personally was able to at least have one book on me at the time of being transported. But if not I would find some paper and start writing down some of my own memories of books I had read and share (read them) to everyone I could.

So, What about you? How would you explain books to people who do not know what they are?   Please Share. And as always, have a great Friday.

 It's getting close to Halloween. If you HAD to read one of these two genres, which would you prefer -- urban fantasy, or horror, and why? (submitted by Maria @ A Night's Dream of Books)
