I spotted this meme at Margot’s Confessions of a Mystery Novelist [via Pop Culture Nerd].
My Life as a Book is a meme in which players complete sentences about themselves with titles of books. Some memes are just too demanding on the brain box, but I had a look at this one, and decided it could be completed with just books I had read this year. So here goes:
One time at band/summer camp, I: (went) Missing [Karin Alvtegen]
Weekends at my house are: The Tin Roof Blowdown [James Lee Burke]
My neighbour is: The Troubled Man [Henning Mankell]
My boss is: The Abominable Man [Maj Sjowall and Per Wahloo]
My ex was: All Yours [Claudia Pineiro]
My superhero secret identity is: The Leopard [Jo Nesbo]
You wouldn’t like me when I’m angry because: No One Loves a Policeman [Guillermo Orsi]
I’d win a gold medal in: Bandit Love [Massimo Carlotto]
I’d pay good money for: A Lily of the Field [John Lawton]
If I were president, I would: (be in) An Uncertain Place [Fred Vargas]
When I don’t have good books, I: (am in a) Frozen Moment [Camilla Ceder]
Loud talkers at the movies should be: (taken to) A Beautiful Place to Die [Malla Nunn]
Margot’s meme included photos of herself, so not to be out done, this one was taken in one of my better moods. I can imagine this photo being dropped by the RAF over Berlin, and Grand Admiral Doenitz being called in to explain why the U-Boat campaign had so obviously failed to cut off Britain’s food supply.
