I do the same thing with wine; surprisingly, people think I have good taste.

6) I am absolutely terrified of cows

OK, you're going to have to explain that one.  I have a horror of geese, but then I was attacked by one as a child.

1.  I'm a book nerd.  Some of my favorites are Northanger Abbey and Persuasion by Jane Austen, Harry Potter, Atonement, the Percy Jackson series, and an amazing book called the Twentieth Train about the underground resistance in Belgium against the nazi's in WWII. 

You're definitely going to fit in here.  Love Jane Austen and Persuasion is my favorite book and one of my favorite movies.

10. My favorite movies include Atonement, Phantom of the Opera, Love Actually, Ladyhawke, Monty Python and the Holy Grail (with Life of Brian following close behind), Team America, Lord of the Rings, etc.  Very eclectic span of stuff lol. 

I haven't seen Atonement or Team America, but I'm a big fan of the others.

Ooo tough one!  I think a mix of lots of things suits me best too.  I find myself re-reading a lot of history books and lots of 19th Century literature too or The Iliad or Metamorpheses by Ovid (HUGE Greek mythology fan too), but for a casual read I love a good fantasy like Harry Potter or Percy Jackson or really unique books like Atonement, lol VERY much an eclectic range that's for sure.  How about you?

She feeds them to her lizard, and what's a bug (or 800) between friends?

I'm getting to the age where people do this to me, except they're not random people

2.  I'm a history fanatic.  Some of my favorite subjects are WWII history, especially as mentioned above, the underground resistance movements, the Romanovs, The Tudors, Regency England, Victorian England, etc.

Hooray, a fellow history enthusiast!

And although WWII is one of my favourites, I'm more intrested with the action on the frontlines
