I'm Canadian, I've been to PEI, never read Anne of Green Gables and haven't visited the Avonlea house. I should remedy this some time.

I don't know any bloggers nearby. None. Nada. Sigh. <br /><br />I did learn a bit about you! PEI is a place I'd love to go. You're lucky to have even met Zusak, lady. If you eat with him, I'm flying to Utah to join you. Fair warning. :)<br /><br />I need to read more YA.

I still read the latter lest I forget what makes a good book stand out over time. Currently I am reading Macbeth...again.<br /><br />Anyway, I am now following your blog.

I'm usually the really shy person, but I did manage to mention my blog name at the last signing I went to (a year ago) and John Scalzi said "oh yeah, you just reviewed my book, didn't you?"

If you pay attention in my pictures with them you can see my smile is a bit too big and excited. I hate the afterwards when I regret not saying or asking something. But I am getting gradually better with each time. Hopefully when I go to the Veronica Roth event in Utah in July I won't be such a crazy.<br /><br />It was nice to meet you.
