Friday's Fab Five + Book Blogger Hop

The whole family decided to participate in this week's Friday's Fab Five.  :-)
1. If you could be an animal which would you be and why?Violet -  A sea turtle.  They have a long lifespan and get to explore the coral reefs.Forest-  Marine Iguana.  They hang out in the Galapagos Islands swimming in the ocean and lounging on the shore.  Sounds pretty good to me.Primrose -  Panda.  Because I love to eat bamboo and they do too.Amethyst-  Zebra.  They can run fast, and I like their stripes.
2. If you could have any super power which would you chose?Violet-  I would like the power to control time.  Pulling a Hermione-esque time-turner move and stopping time to give myself a few extra hours for reading each day would be my first priority.  ;-)Forest-  The ability to manipulate molecules telepathically - creating shock waves, melting metal, repairing wounds, etc.Primrose-  I would be able to turn invisible and put a force field around myself like Violet in The Incredibles.Amethyst-  My power would turn baddies into goodies!  :)  
3. If you were a character in a book who would you chose to be?Violet-  Elizabeth BennetForest-  Fitzwilliam DarcyPrimrose-  Anne ShirleyAmethyst-  Cinderella

5. What is one food you never want to eat again?Violet-  Okra!Forest-  Coleslaw.Primrose-  Green peppersAmethyst-  Spanish rice

This fun meme is hosted by Froggarita's Bookcase.  Every Friday Froggarita asks five questions so we can all get to know each other better.  The only rule is that you can't use the same answer twice within your five!   Ready to play?  Leave your answers in the comments or leave us a link to your own Friday's Fab Five post.  :)

The Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Jennifer at Crazy for Books, and it is a terrific way to connect with other book bloggers and readers.  You can join the Hop by clicking on the image above.  This week's question is:

1.  Right this instant, what book are you dying to get your hands on (past, present, or future)?

I can't wait to read Cassandra Clare's Clockwork Angel!  It is definitely my most eagerly anticipated book of the year, and I am so excited to have won an ARC in a contest at WORD for Teens.  Thank you, Nicole!  :-)  The moment that book appears in my mailbox, everything else can officially consider itself on hold as I lock myself in a quiet room to read.  Haha!  If only real life worked that way.  In actuality, I will still need to run the kids around town to their art, swimming, ballet, and Ki Aikido classes before trying to talk them into playing in the sprinkler or watching a DVD so I can steal away to spend the afternoon reading.  :-)  So what book are YOU most excited to read right now?
