5 Books -

1. The Scorpio Races - I simply love this book! I could read it over and over again without getting bored.

2. Jane Eyre - This is one of my favorite books of all time. Plus it's long enough that it'd take me awhile to read.

3. Graffiti Moon - When I finished reading this one, I immediately wanted to re-read it. It would also be something light and fun I could mix in.

4. The Host by Stephenie Meyer - It's super long and something I love to re-read. I think I could probably read it over and over and still be very happy about it.

5. Steampunk! An Anthology - I love to keep short stories around for any reading slumps. This one would be perfect when I needed a bit of a change of pace - plus it has some of my favorite authors!

5 Items-

1. iPod Touch - I can't live without music! My iPod is filled with plenty of music to keep me entertained. Plus, while using any internet functions will be out of the question, I can use it to write journal entries, stories, and more with different apps.

2. Solar charger - To keep the iPod running!

3. Umbrella - To keep from getting a sunburn - I don't burn easily, but that hot sun constantly would be sure to be unpleasant.

4. Blanket - Curl up under it during the cold nights and sit on it during the sunny days.

5. Knife - Who knows what I'll face!

GIVEAWAY!

About Amanda:

Amanda is a 20-something from a small Southern town in the US. Having lived all over the US, she’s happy to be back home, in spite of the lack of a book store. She lives with her family and an army of animal companions. Armed with a library card, online shopping, and a trusty e-reader, she fulfilled her intense love of books and words passed on from her mother.

Her love of reading began with the first book she ever read on her own, before she even started attending school – The Three Little Kittens. Over the years she graduated to Stephen King, classics, and more recently young adult literature.

Amanda began writing at a very young age. Her first most-prized work? A short story involving a giraffe in the third grade. Then she began her first novel, from there numerous poems Since then she has moved on to a strange obession with people jumping and falling from cliffs or being poisoned.

Prior to book blogging, Amanda toyed with various forms of blogging. She spent a lot of time reviewing for both local print, beta-reading, and reviewing for others’ blogs. When all of that ended she found herself kind of at a loss as to what to do.
