You're My Favorite Book - Stars

Hey literary lovers. Prongs here bringing you what I think may be my future wedding song. Just an adorable little tune by the band Stars that is sure to crack open even the thickest of bounded hearts. The lyrics and the video follow as well. Do you have any great songs that involve reading, love, or that special connection between the two? We want to hear them!

'You're My Favorite Book' -Stars

I was always late
You, never afraid
That we could be falling
All our friends would say
That maybe we should wait
But they can't see what's coming

And to this day
When everything breaks
You are the anchor that holds me

And that is why we'll always make it
How I know your face
All the ways you move
You come in, I can read you
You're my favourite book
All the things you say
The way you shift your eyes
I never knew there was someone to make me come alive

When the days are long
And the thunder with the storm
Can always get me crying
Well you can make my bed
I'll fall into it
Shadowed but not lonely

'Cause I never knew home
Until I found your hands
And when I'm weathered
You come to me, you're my best friend

And that is why we'll always make it
How I know your face
All the ways you move
You come in, I can read you
You're my favourite book
All the things you say
The way you shift your eyes
I never knew there was someone to make me come alive

And when we're making love
I give everything up for your touch

How I know your face
All the ways you move
You come in, I can read you
You're my favourite book
All the things you say
The way you shift your eyes
I never knew there was someone to make me come alive

And when you go to work
All the day I wait
For you to come home
Recount our time
In our little place
Our little place

Long time, no blog.

Hey there literary world. It's been too long since Padfoot and Prongs have graced you with our charming, witty, and at times down right sexy presence... far far too long. So much has changed with both the blogging world and our real world since the last post, however we are so very excited to be back and doing what we do best... loving literature!

2012 marks a big year of change for your favorite marauders. First off, we are now currently living in the beautiful and quaint city of Cork, Ireland. It's a small town in the south of Ireland filled with bookshops, baristas, and of course good beer. While here we are fortunate enough to have time to wile away hours sitting slowly tackling our TBR lists, and now that we have internet access, we can faithfully return to our blogging adventures.

While we are a bit late on the 'resolution' posts for our blog, here are a few that we are hoping to stick with for the upcoming year. As we are abroad, we know that blogging won't always be consistent (what's new) or even possible, however we resolve to return to what we love most about this humble site, book reviewing.

To old blogger friends, we have missed you, to new literary love, welcome to our site.

May this coming year be filled with lots of prose, dog eared pages, and of course mischief!!

Tattoo Tuesday-Special Edition

Hey there Marauders!! It's our favorite time of the week once again!!

For those of you who are new to the site here's a bit of background. Tattoo Tuesday was started by our good friend Tara over at 25HourBooks and celebrates our love of literature plus the people like us who are obsessed enough to ink something literary on their body! Every week we feature a literary tattoo that interests or compels us. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the ink.

Helllo readers! It's certainly been a while. We are currently recovering from the heartbreak/amazingness that is Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2. We got ourselves some Harry Potter related ink the night before, to mourn the death of our childhood. Padfoot "Time is making fools of us again" -Dumbledore Prongs "It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live" -Dumbledore Watch did you think of the movie?

Remember, if you have a literary tattoo of your own we would love to see it! Just e-mail a photo along with a brief description of why you chose it to:
