TGIF is a new(ish) feature at one of my absolute favourite blogs, GReads!, hosted by the lovely Ginger. It's a way to celebrate the impending weekend, and answer fun questions. Most of all though, you get to know a wee bit more about all those awesome bloggers you meet. So, what are you waiting for? Do your own post and head on over to link up!

Book Blogs That Make You Smile: Pick 5 book blogs you visit often & think others should, too.

This is a difficult one, and I'm just going to throw that out there right away because I visit a lot of amazing blogs every single day, and I know I'm going to miss at least one, which will make me feel bad. But, I've committed to this topic, so five blogs I just know I honestly couldn't live without visiting daily are:

Jenny is the mastermind behind Supernatural Snark, and when I say she's a genius, I mean it. Plus, she's probably the nicest person in the whole world. Not too many people will run at you the first time you meet them in person (at BEA, mind you) and give you a bearhug. Love this girl, love her exceptional reviewing skills and am always inspired by her passion for books.

I don't even remember how I stumbled upon Lauren's blog, 365 Days of Reading, but from the start, I could count on her for awesome reviews, fun and inventive features and introducing me to new titles. She never fails to give us the best and worst of the literary world - but all with tact, grace and class. She's inspiring, and her blog is so much fun!

Alison from Alison Can Read has had a blog that's been a favourite of mine for almost a year now. I swear, not too many bloggers can sway me towards things I don't know (like Manga), but she has a knack for it. Plus, she's insightful and and eloquent with all her posts, and she never fails to leave a nice and positive comment.

This one is a given, guys. Ginger from GReads! is probably one of the sweetest people I've ever "met". Though I've yet to meet this girl face to face, she has a heart of gold and a site that never fails to impress me. I'm always inspired by her passion for everything she does on her site, as well as everything she promotes. Plus, it has to be said that this girl managed to sway me towards contemps...not an easy feat, but she did it!

Candace from Candace's Book Blog is a fairly recent find of mine, but I visit her site every single day, without fail (even those days when I'm too bloody tired to comment). She always has new content, she writes amazing reviews, and she's incredibly generous with giveaways, help to other bloggers and positive vibes. Her blog is truly one-of-a-kind.

The Friday Fix is a takeover of my Friday blog post by other bloggers who have volunteered their time and energy to "star" in their very own guest post on Friday. Only one mandatory rule (you can't get out of it!) - you must answer five of the most random questions I throw your way. The rest is up to you. Remember, if you'd like to be featured on the Friday Fix, send me an email, and let me know! So, without further ado, here are the Chloe from YA Booklover Blog!

The Most Random Questions in the World...

1. Why are obituaries found in the "living" section of the newspaper?

Because there isn't enough room in the automobile section ;)

2. Can crop circles ever be square?

Wikipdedia claims they can also be referred to as crop formations, so I would take this as a.... yes?

3. What do you do if you see an endangered animal eating an endangered plant?

I'd say pull the animal off the plant. Unless that's the only plant the animal can eat, and then the plant is pretty much screwed if it doesn't grow teeth soon enough.

4. If milk goes bad if you don't refrigerate it, why don't we refrigerate the cows?

Something tells me that cows don't have the thickest of coats and that they might not do too well in a fridge. Plus that would have to be one massive fridge. But hey, what do I know?

5. If someone dies of a heart attack in the electric chair before being electrocuted, do they save him/her?

Yes! Because the point of the electric chair is to make them suffer, so they must save the person from dying an easier death and force them to fulfill their punishment.

This feature is hosted by the lovely Ginger of GReads & showcases music (her other passion in life besides books!). Each week we will post a new or old song in hopes to gain more interest. Let's all help spread the love of music and find some new favourites on the way!

Everyone should feel free to get involved with this meme - just head on over, and link up, and remember to link back to G's blog, too!

Ok, I'm totally an alt-rock girl, and when I discovered this band, I was pretty much in heaven. I'm surprised they're as obscure as they are because their songs are beautiful, the men are pretty much gorgeous as all get out and, frankly, they were on this little show once upon a time that I like with these hot vampires...if you guess it, you get a cookie. Anyhoo, feast your ears on this gem called This = Love by The Script. It's amazing and so so powerful.

The Most Random Questions in the World...

1. If you dug a hole to the center of the Earth and jumped in, would you stay there because of gravity?

First of all, I'd be digging for quite some time! ha! And I thought the whole no gravity thing worked outside the atmosphere? So I'm going to say that I would probably burn to death from all that hot magma before gravity even plays a part in it.

2. If the FBI breaks down your door, do they have to pay for it?

They should, but they probably wouldn't. They're the FBI - they get away with whatever they want! and if not, then they just cover it up =)

3. Why is it that when you "skate on thin ice", you "get in hot water"?

Well, if the ice is so thin then that must mean the water beneath it isn't very cold.

4. Are there time zones in space when you're zooming over them?

Sort of. Because technically when it's day time in Europe, it's night time in North America - and all of that has to do with the position of the earth to the sun. So when you're in space, you're still on one side or the other, even if you're in orbit. Wow! that took too much thinking lol.

5. If a cannibal was on death row, could he ask for a person to eat for his last meal?

No. That's disgusting. And I'm pretty sure that's illegal too.
