Book about me, last few pages...

I think these will be the last few pages of my "Being Charlotte Kingman" book that I'll be able to have time to make before my birthday in 2 sleeps time! I wanted to have all the pages done but I still have some pics sitting around on my desk and some ideas still in my head! But I think I am about 3/4 of the way through, so it's not too bad!
Ah owls.. I love them! Have you guessed yet, considering all the Owls that appear here and there in my cards and on my pages?!! It all started with one long silver Owl necklace Alicia thought I would love from America. And she was right!! Now I have 3 owl necklaces, earrings, Christmas decorations, keyring, T-shirt, Jumper, figurine and Statue, is that too much? I can't help it, they are just so so cute! I love them! I think all the graphic images are the cutest (see the rub-on on this page and the cute one on my shirt). I really want to get some Owl wall art to brighten up Brownville a bit more, I think that would be awesome!!
So I decided to do a page on my bookshelf too, seeing as reading is a big part of my daily schedule. I love novels, both fact and fiction. My fave author is Diana Gabaldon and I absolutely LOVE the Outlander series (or Cross Stitch for us Aussies), I also love crime/forensics like Kathy Reichs (Bones is one of my fave shows on TV too!) and Patricia Cornwell. Of course I have the Harry Potter books and I have read all of Patrick O'Brien's Master and Commander series! Thats a lot of books! At the moment I am reading a non-fiction about Louis XIV's mistress Athenais. Very interesting lives those Frenchies lead in the 17th Century! I think this is the era when the French got their reputation for Love Makers. And for being Nancy Boys too though! It might go hand in hand!!
