Yes, Austin, We Accept Your Challenge!

By
Eiffel Tower of Bookishness!

So, last Sunday, Austin made this video, stacking books to the ceiling, and challenging us to do the same.  Kit and I took that challenge and owned it!  Check out our Eiffel Tower of Awesome!


Uh......ok, that last part didn't count, right?

Well, oddly enough, another blog took on this challenge, and they THINK their tower is better than ours.  Whatever.  Ok, it totally is.  It's way better.  So much better that I'm embarrassed of our video.  BUT, they don't have Rusty (my dog), so there.

Check out their video here.

Now, the question is......do you have what it takes to beat it?

*No books were harmed in the making of this film. Well....not much.....

    But, the question is, did you put Mara Dyer at the very top?

    I feel lazy that I am unwilling to do this. Ah, well.

    P.S. My captcha word was unkind. This says something. I don't know of whom.

    haha, Melina, no....but I was thinking that I should have put Anna and the French Kiss on top, or in front. :P

    That is a tower of awesomeness!!! I'm too scared to do this, in fear I would knock my tower over on myself. LOL My books might get damaged ROFTL

    Ah, I actually gasped when the tower fell over. Crazy people! It was like watching the cake challenges on Food Network - the worst is when they drop the cake, hah!

    Anyway, pretty awesome stuff!

    I don't even own 100 books unless you count the average 10 I get from the library, then I'd have... 100. But now I'm considering doing this. Love this!

    That was so much fun! Your top part was much taller and therefore much more challenging to stack so bravo for getting it to stay as long as you did!

    Thanks for the link!

    I would never be able to do this! Mostly because I would be so afraid that the tower would fall and it would hurt the corners of my books. Lame but true. :P Haha.

Finally, My Thoughts on Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

By Andria
  Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins Audio  So, I was going through my old posts, looking for something to post today, and came across this.  I guess I never posted it, because I was just so angry and disappointed.  Plus, I think I had talked so much about it, that I was sick of talking about it.  And also, I feel like there were so many things that bothered me that I couldn't get it all down.  But, I thought it might be fun to post this, and see if anyone is interested in it.  So, here are my bitter and resentful thoughts on Mockingjay! :P 8-30-2010 *spoilers galore* After reading Mockingjay all day on Tuesday, I left Wednesday morning to go on vacation for my anniversary.  All I could think about was Mockingjay.  You might think that's a good sign, like it was so well done that I couldn't forget about it.  But, for me, it wasn't.  I was so disappointed in this book.  Honestly, if I hadn't loved the first two books so much, I pr...
