Yesterday, the Forum was awash with budding journalists as the Exeposé Online team took over the Forum. With plenty of free cake, celebrity impressions, finger-painting, Guitar Hero, and quizzes, there was plenty of Exeposé madness to join in with. We here at Exeposé Online Books had a great time meeting fellow book-enthusiasts, discussing the work that we do here at the website and letting students know about the various ways in which they can get involved. We also met some of our editorial candidates who will be running for the position of Online Books Editor on Wednesday March at 3.20pm in the Forum Exploration Lab 1. Some students were brave enough to take on our tricky Books Quiz – congratulations to the lucky winner who has bagged a £20 Amazon voucher! We’ve picked a selection of our favourite tie-breaker responses…
Who is your literary hero and why?
“Mr Darcy because he knows how to treat a lady”
“Mr. Tumnus and the Mad Hatter because they epitomize English society with their impeccable table manners and legendary hosting skills”
“William Brown (Just William) because he is such a rebel, and I think of myself as one…”
“Katie Price’s Angel. She has so many dimensions. A true inspiration.”
“Dobby because he is a house elf.”
“Christian Gray because he’s made s&m socially acceptable”
“Captain Hook for providing inspiration to amputees, as a succesful and powerful indivudual in the work place.”
“Artemis Fowl because he hangs out with elves and a farting gnome.”
“Robert Frobisher in Cloud Atlas, for committing suicide without making a mess”
“Sherlock Holmes – he successfully accomodates a serious drug addiction with a full-time job.”
Thanks to all those who took part in the quiz, and congratulations to the winner!
