It's hot and chocolatey and really, what could be better? I know it's usually a fall/winter drink, but I love it all year round. What's your favorite drink to read with?

I'm skipping the question. I don't enjoy crying at books - or movies, or commercials, or tv shows. I'm a bit of a sap and cry way too easily at fiction. I actually avoid books that I know are going to make me cry, which I know means I miss out on a lot of excellent ones, but I'm okay with that.

Both are older, wise, have made mistakes, but are still in love. What's your favorite love story? Join in at Maureen's Books....

I tend to like light pop, by singers like Colbie Caillat and Sara Bareilles and some pop country, like Lady Antebellum and Carrie Underwood. I also apparently like the Moana soundtrack.

My favorite evil character is probably the White Witch from The Lion, the With and the Wardrobe. She's powerful, strong and cunning. She's terrifying - she can turn animals and people into stone and plunged Narnia into an endless winter with not Christmas. Have I mentioned I hate cold weather? She's also gorgeous, in an icy way.
