3) Last book I read: Crossroads of Twighlight (actually reading right now) by Robert Jordan

4) 5 books that mean a lot to me:

Can it be 4 series?
The wheel of Time by Robert Jordan heart heart heart heart
The Banned and the Bannished by James Clemens heart heart heart heart
The seven waters trilogy by Julliet Marillier heart heart heart
The Bitterbynde trilogy by Cecilia Dart-Thornton heart heart heart

These series made me cry and laugh. This are the best series I've evre read. They expanded my dreams, and made me feel like I existed. Maybe that sounds strange, but by expanding my dreams, I feel like I am there, instead of being ignored all the time. I feel like I'm in the story.

Hasse Simonsdochter, by Thea Beckmann.-- It's a Dutch book. But the best, most beautiful, and touching book I've ever read. It's about a man you might know. Jan van Schaffelaar. He jumped of the churchtower to save his men and Hasse. It's soooooooooo beautiful!

Finally:

heart heart WITHOUT FANTASY BOOKS AND MAGIC, I'D PROBABLY DIE. IT MADE ME WHO I AM, AND WHO I WANT TO BE. scream scream
