15 Random Things You Didn't Need To Know About Me (But Now You Do)
by Jessica Brody
- I loves bananas but hate anything banana flavored.
- I'm squemish about collar bones and belly buttons. (Good luck touching either one of them)
- I've always secretly wanted to be a member of the Spice Girls
- I don't like it when vegetables try to pass themselves off as dessert. (Carrot Cake, I'm on to you. You're not fooling anyone!)
- The first book I learned to read was Go Dog Go at age 2, although technically I probably just memorized it.
- I can't whistle. (And no, it's not as simple as just putting your lips together and blowing).
- I'm allergic to avocado (a fact that I hate because I happen to love guacamole!)
- My favorite movie to quote is the movie, Arthur starring Dudley Moore. ("Bitterman, drive through the park. You know how I love the park.")
- I've always had a strange obsession with the scanners at supermarket registers and now I never miss an opportunity to use the self check-out lanes so I can scan my own food.
- I love speaking in a British accent, much to the annoyance of everyone around me.
- I've always hating doing anything athletic and I used to hide behind the handball courts in elementary school during P.E.
- I'm a major tech-y and have to own every gadget that comes out. Regardless of whether or not I have any intention of using it.
- I can't stand the word "pocketbook" or "panties."
- My all-time favorite foods are pixy sticks, sushi and afternoon tea sandwiches and I insist on having all three at my birthday parties.
- My very first novel was called The Puppy and the Kitty and was complete with illustrations. I wrote it when I was 7. (See photo below).
Oh, and one thing you MAY have known about me, but I just thought I'd remind you is that my fourth novel, MY LIFE UNDECIDED releases on June 7!

Great list! Only now I'm craving carrot cake.
Love it, and I'm with you on the banana opinion. Real ones = awesome. Flavoring? Blech.
How weird - I HATE bananas but can totally eat banana flavoring. It's just the disgusting feel of them going down my teeth that I can't be dealing with!
But I'm so with you on the word 'panties' which we don't really use over here. I was devastated when my editor wanted me to use instead of 'knickers' in my first book.
