    I'm Anna, and I love to read. I've had an account here for quite a while, but it fell into disuse when they revamped the site and I couldn't figure anything out. :) I'm 17-years-old, a senior, and I live in the US. I am an AP student and I adore Harry Potter. I am straight, but I am a huge advocate for gay rights and I'm the president of the Gay-Straight Alliance at my school. :D I'm a proud Ravenclaw. I feel very stuck up and lame writing many sentences starting with the word "I" and it probably sounds repetitive, but oh well. My favorite movie is Rent. I love nerdy things (including boys), cats, and food. It's tasty. :D I don't really know what else to put, except that it asks me why I'm here, and I guess that my answer would be that I love books. :)

  • Favorite Quote

    Not at all sure. A couple I recently found are as follows, but I haven't really had a chance to find some that I *really* connect with.

    Easy is an adjective used to describe a woman who has the sexual morals of a man. ~Nancy Linn-Desmond

    "Why is it that, as a culture, we are more comfortable seeing two men holding guns than holding hands?" ~Ernest Gaines.

    "Human beings can modify rules to just about anything to suit their own personal needs. There is no such thing as the 'pure' Word of God. There is only the distilled version that every person comes up with and interprets." ~Tommy Tribble

    "Nothing lasts forever- the good as well as the bad." ~Not sure who said it. I think I found it in a book somewhere.

  • Best Book To Film Adaptation

    None.

    Honestly, I can't think of any good ones. Or any at all, at the moment... the only one I can think of is Harry Potter 7 part 1. It wasn't too horrible.

  • If I could be any character I'd be (and why?)

    You know, I can't think of any right now. Maybe I'll come back to this later.

  • If I was stranded on a desert island and could only bring 3 books, I'd bring

    *The Stravaganza series by Mary Hoffman
    *Harry Potter series by J K Rowling
    *Anything by David Levithan

    That counts as three, right? ;) But really, I guess I'd pick
    Harry Potter 1 and 3, and Wide Awake, by David Levithan.
