But first, an unrelated Niagara Falls picture of your favorite book bloggers, because what is a blog post without a picture? (If you want to read a fun/sad story about the events surrounding this picture, read this post.)

Anyway, here are Allie’s fun facts about Libby:

1. Libby is left-handed. I don’t think I knew this before Monday, because while I was at school with her on Monday, one of the bullet points in my notes was: “Ask Libby: has she always been left-handed?” The answer is yes.
2. She has a life-size cutout of Zac Efron as Troy Bolton taped onto the ceiling above her bed.
3. Libby and her sister have plans to road trip to Chicago this summer (and I’m very jealous).
4. Libby is vegetarian. She also once ate an entire container of plain tofu, because it was in her refrigerator and she was hungry.
5. The first time we hung out at her house we wrote fan mail with crayons to a British boy band and watched X-Factor UK.
6. Libby doesn’t have a Facebook profile because she’s a loser she never used it so she deleted it.
7. Libby loves old-fashioned diners. Like, the kind where the waitresses have been working there for centuries and call you “honey” and know all about their regular customers’ lives and serve pancakes all night long.

And Libby’s fun facts about Allie:

1. Allie loves Cinderella. She saw the movie yesterday and she was very excited. She also has a life-sized Cinderella in her room.
2. A book-related fact: Allie buys extra copies of books she already has all the time. Sometimes it’s an accident and sometimes it’s on purpose.
3. Allie pretends to be a hipster by taking artsy pictures, thrift shopping all the time, and keeping books and a birdcage on an old library cart, but she’s not actually a hipster.
4. Allie is trying to study abroad next year for an entire year. I’ve told her she can only go somewhere with good enough wifi that she’ll be able to keep up with this blog.
5. I tried to make Allie get a Tumblr but she’s posted about three things in the past year, so that was pretty unsuccessful.
6. Allie loves Panera and even follows them on Instagram.
7. Her school offered a class on Jane Austen novels this semester and she didn’t take it. This is her biggest regret, probably.
