Fun Fact Friday (#3)





Fun Fact Friday is a meme hosted by Lettora at I’m Booked! If you’d like to join and do your own Fun Fact Friday, just ask! At I’m Booked! Every week we’ll give you five new, fun facts.
This week’s five facts:


1.       Did you know that the character Jace Wayland in City of Bones film could have been played by Alex Pettyfer or Sterling Knight.

2.       Agatha Christie is the worlds bestselling fiction writer. She wrote 78 crime novels that sold over 2 billion copies.

3.       The English word for book comes from the Danish word bog which means birch tree.

4.       In The Hunger Games film, they used half-thawed blueberries to portray the deadly nightlock berries.

5.       Leo Tolstoy, writer of War and Peace, had his wife, Sophia, hand write 7 copies of his manuscript. Thank goodness for modern technology! 13 children later he left her at age 82.
