dolorosa_12Day 25: Tell us about the last book you read (for leisure or for school).
The last book I read was one I've read multiple times as background for my academic work on medieval Irish literature. It's called The Wisdom of the Outlaw, and is written by Joseph Falaky Nagy. It's about a genre of Irish literature called Fianaigecht, and most particularly the idea that there existed in medieval Irish literature this marginal, semi-supernatural group of people whose power came from their outsider status. It's an absolutely beautiful piece of academic work, and I wish that I had been the one to write it!
Day 26: Name one place you would love to visit one day.
Day 27: List your three favorite girl names, three favorite boy names, and your three favorite names for a pet.
Day 28: Your first celebrity crush.
Day 29: Your opinions on the television show Glee.
Day 30: Take a picture of yourself right now and post it, or post the most recent picture you can find.
