1. You have 20,000 books in your TBR, how in the world do you decide what to read next?
It depends on what I'm in the mood for. I will usually pick a read that I got the most recently, and knock that out, or I will read something that I've had on my tbr for a while. I will also use the internet, and people that I know that have read and enjoyed the book, so I will read that. Honestly, it will depend on a lot of different factors. If I have just read a heavy read, I will read a lighter read for a bit of a break.
2. You’re halfway through a book and you’re just not loving it. Do you put it down or are you committed?
Honestly, 99.99% of the time I am committed to the book. If it is just a slow part I will push and power through it, I know that there is always something that is slow in the book. I may skip through a section, or read a section really fast, but I will almost always stick with the book and be committed to the book.
3. The end of the year is coming and you’re behind on your reading challenge, do you try to catch up? And if so, how?
If the end of the year is coming, and I have yet to meet my goal I will try and catch up yes. I'm the kind of person that reads more than one book at a time, and so I will just try my hardest to finish everything that I have left. I may start a new book in say December, and see if I can finish the book before the month is up. For my reading challenges, I will just use Goodreads and say that I will read x amount of books. I would like to try those read harder ones, but I feel like those are a little too structured for me.
4. The covers of a series you love do not match, how do you cope?
I don't really mind I will read the series anyway. I usually by series together, but I'm not one of those readers who will make a big fuss because the covers of my books don't match. For me, It's more important that I love the story, the characters, and the world of the book, not the cover.
5. Everyone and their mother loves a book that you do not. Who do you bond with over your shared feelings?
In all honesty, I will probably not talk about the book with anyone. I have some people in my life that also read like I do, but we don't really discuss books all that much. I have people online that I talk about books with, and sometimes I will make a review, and get my feelings about the book out there. My mother doesn't read a lot of YA, but she will listen when I talk about different books that I might not love.
6. You’re reading a book in public and you’re about to start crying. How do you deal?
Honestly, I will just let it out. I cried in the middle of the hair salon one time, and I feel that people know that book readers are emotional. So that we all have strong emotions.
7. The sequel to a book you loved just came out but you’ve forgotten a lot of what happens. Are you going to reread it?
Maybe. If I loved the book and remember the major details than no. If it has been a while, then yes I will be rereading it.
8. You do not want anyone to borrow your books, how do you politely say no when someone asks?
I will ask them if I could get them a copy as a gift.
9. You have picked up and put down 5 books in the last month. How do you get over this reading slump?
Most likely I will read an old favorite, I will also read a light easy read.
10. There are so many books coming out that you are dying to read, how many do you end up buying?
One to four. I love reading books as they come out, so every few months I go to the bookstore and get the new releases I want.
11. After you purchase all of these books that you’re dying to read how long do they sit on your shelves before you get to them?
It depends, I have books that I will read right away, and so I will put on the back burner for a while.
