[5th Halliwell]

I love a lot of books, but I'm just gonna share my top 3, books I love above the rest.

1. Little Women / Louisa M. Alcott
2. Mary Poppins / P.L. Travers
3. Love in the Time of Cholera / Gabriel García Márquez

I'm also a probie writer. Currently writing "Sobreviviente" my first fictional story (e-Book) ever! *blushes* I've posted 16 chapters on Wattpad so far, but I'm such a great procrastinator that I haven't updated it in a while.

You know, I've always thought that if I had to go back in time (like the Charmed ones), it would be to the 19th century to embody one of Alcott's little women, either Jo or Beth. And if I turned into some movie/tv show character, it'd be Mary Poppins   gosh! I'm as obsessed with both, the book and the movie, as Phoebe was with "Kill It Before It Dies".
