Lately I’ve been browsing Pinterest and found this little book tag. It sounded interesting so I thought I’d give it a whirl.
(On a side note, how often do you use Pinterest? I can forget about it for months then get in daily finding good stuff.)
1. Ebook or physical book?
Physical. I can concentrate better than on my phone or iPad. I’d like to get a simple ereader one day, you know like a paperwhite or a simple touch that looks like a page instead of a computer screen. That’d be awesome.
2. Paperback or hardback?
Both. Paperback for reading/carrying around. Hardback for collection (preferably.)
3. Online or in-store shopping?
In-store, because I like to browse. Online you kinda have to know what you’re shopping for.
4. Trilogies or series?
Trilogy, because they’re shorter and I don’t have the patience for long series anymore.
5. Heroes or villains?
Heroes.
6. A book you want everyone to read?
Never Let Me Go, because I still think about it sometimes.
7. Recommend an underrated book.
The Serafina series. It gets a high rating on Goodreads but it seems few people know absolutely it. Go read them, awesome new-ish children’s series.
8. The last baby you finished?
The Viscount Who Loved Me by Julia Quinn.
9. The last baby you bought?
Never Let Me Go and The Remains of the Day
10. Weirdest thing you used as a bookmark?
Piece of paper…usually have a bookmark around.
11. Used books: yes or no?
Yes as long as they’re gently used.
12. Top 3 favorite genres?
Realistic, historical, fantasy. Young adult isn’t a genre people, it’s a target audience (annoys me when they say YA is a genre), but I do read some books intended for young adults.
13. Borrow or buy?
Both.
14. Characters or plot?
Both depends on what I can focus on. Preferably both in one book.
15. Long or short books?
Short-ish.
16. Long or short chapters?
Short usually
17. Name the first 3 books you can think of.
Harry Potter, American Dirt, My Dark Vanessa
18. Books that make you laugh or cry?
Don’t do either much but Beyond the Point made me want to cry so much. A remarkable book.
19. Our world or fictional world?
Ours.
20. Audiobooks: yes or no?
I want to say yes but I never finished one all the way through.
21. Ever judge a book by its cover?
Well yeah, it happens even though you’re not supposed to.
22. Book to movie or book to tv adaptations?
Tv has been popular but it depends on how long the book is.
23. Movie or tv show you preferred to the book?
Jurassic Park and The Book Thief.
24. Stand alone or series?
Stand alone these days.
Did you every read The Bronze Horseman trilogy. They were great books and I’m not a big reader. Also Tully but the same author. Paulina Simmons
