Seven things about each of us:
Kathleen: Though Pokémon was all the rage when I was a kid, I never really played any of the games besides Leaf Green. When Pokémon Go came out, I fell back in love with it, and my boyfriend bought me a 3DS and Moon for Christmas so we could play together ❤
Nancy: I had a cameo in one of my favorite graphic novel series, Revival! I was drawn in as a doctor in the last issue of the this rural noir thriller. I am over the moon about it, and carry the issue around with me everywhere to show people.
Kathleen: I don’t like the holidays. Grade A Grinch right here!
Nancy: I am the Teen Services Coordinator at my library. I started a teen volunteer program there, and have some fantastic teens who help with a lot of different projects.
Kathleen: I used to eat peanut butter every day until I developed a nut allergy last month. The worst part is no more Nutella tho *sobs*
Nancy: My Goodreads Challenge is to read 100 books this year. So far so good!
Kathleen: I didn’t have my own cell phone until I was in college – did fine without it using my friends’ phones to call my mom! =P
Nancy: I really like hiking. I don’t like to go to the gym to exercise, but I do enjoy wandering around the woods.
Kathleen: My favorite “retro” video game is Spyro the Dragon.
Nancy: My husband and I are going to see U2 in concert in June!
Kathleen: I’m an artist who hates getting dirty.
Nancy: The Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island in Michigan really is grand. My husband and I splurged on an anniversary trip there, and it was worth every penny.
Kathleen: ^ That hotel was featured in a Hollows novel! (It’s not a fact about me, but it’s a cool one) **And it was the setting for the fantasy time travel movie Somewhere In Time! (Nancy)
Nancy: I secretly really like country music. Don’t judge me.

I was a huge Pokemon fan when I was a kid, I had the games (on Gameboy color), the cards, tshirts and figurines, and of course watched the show. My BF is still a huge Pokemon fan, he plays the various games all the time. Nancy, good luck with your Goodreads goal, mine is only 50 books 🙂 I also really like hiking, especially with someone you love, and dogs 😀 That hotel looks beautiful 🙂

It’s so much fun playing with my boyfriend. There are so many more elements in Moon that were of course added in the games after Leaf Green so I don’t know about them. He’s so gracious to put up with my incessant questions XD
