Book Survey

Hello! For today's Book Tag Thursday I decided to do a survey that I found on Tumblr. Original post.

  1. What is your favourite book?Just one? Okay I have to say Jane Eyre  because it was the first classic that I picked out that I read. 
  2. Who is your favourite author?I can't pick just one. Sarah J Maas, Holly Black, Rainbow Rowell, Alexandra Silber, John Green, Carrie Hope Fletcher, Ashley Poston, Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte, Becky Albertalli, Adam Silvera, and the like.  
  3. What genre do you prefer?I love YA. Everything in the YA genre at least I will try. Contemporary, Fantasy as long as it has good characters and plot, Sci Fi- see Fantasy. I also love the classics and am breaking into Non Fiction. In all honesty, I have a soft spot for Historical Fiction of all kinds. 
  4. What is your favourite book series?The Hunger Games trilogy, A Court of Thorns and Roses and Folk of Air. 
  5. What books did you hate reading in school?Flowers For Algernon. I had read it like three times by the time I was a Freshman in High school and it was just tiring. 
  6. What is the first book you remember reading as a child?A Madeline Book. Either the first one or Madeline and the Bad Hat.  
  7. Bookstores or libraries?Bookstores!
  8. How many books do you own?- Probably like 100? I am not sure honestly. 
  9. Do you read before bed? Not really
  10. What is your most comfortable reading position?Sitting on my bed. 
  11. What is the most recent book you read?Finished: Enchantee by Gita Trelease
  12. What quote from any book will you never forget? Why is it significant?- "I Promise you on Iron and Stars."- Heart of Iron by Ashley Poston. I find it significant because I love the premise behind it.  
  13. Science Fiction or Fantasy?Fantasy
  14. What books do you regret reading?Regret? Probably Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte. I would like to go back and start it over at some maybe. 
  15. How large is your bookshelf?I have a media center with two shelves filled and one bookcase with three filled space on a few. I have a small open cabinet of the media shelf that can be filled.  
  16. On average, how many books do you read per year?
    More than 30. 
  17. What book can you read hundreds of times and never get tired of?Jane Eyre.
  18. Do you like to read outside?It depends. I can read in the car too and from places but also I can read on the deck. It depends on my mood. 
  19. What’s the biggest lesson you’ve learned from a book?This seems odd I know, but not to judge a book based on the summary. 
  20. Of the past year, what is the greatest book you’ve read?My favorite read of 2018 was Heart of Iron by Ashley Poston.

Top Ten Tuesday- Holiday / Seasonal Freebie- Memorable characters of 2020

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana  @thatartsyreadergirl . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we book bloggers will post a reply to the topic. This week, it's a seasonal / winter freebie. I kind of went rogue in a way. In the winter you see the end of the year best-of lists, and that's exactly what I did with this post. You will find subsections to indicate the genre each book is in.  YA Contemporary 1- Pepper from Tweet Cute by Emma Lord Tweet Cute was a novel I read in September. I fell hard for the major character, Pepper. She was so sweet, and she wanted so much to lice her own life.  As a bonus, she baked, and I seem to really love characters who bake. Pepper made this list because she wanted to live her own life for her, and I really admire that quality in a person. 2- Sophie from 10 Blind Dates by Ashley Elston I’m in the middle of this book right now, but I ...

Top Ten Tuesday- characters that remind me of myself

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! This is a weekly meme where readers discuss ten or whatever number you would like to have based on a prompt. Our host is Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl . Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion,  and discuss how that relates to me  as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar  opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand,  am an introverted creative bookworm.  ...

Top Ten Tuesday - Unpopular Bookish opinions

Welcome Back! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by  thatartsyreadergirl . This week the top is unpopular bookish opinions, was submitted by Kaitlin Galvan at  somehowimanageablog . I don't think I have that many unpopular opinions, but We'll see if I can get to ten. I do not mean this to be a personal attack. I know some of these will get into beloved areas of book community, so take these as just my opinions. 1- I have only read one Harry Potter book, and will probably never read the rest. Yes, I know how odd this makes me sound. I was a Twilight kid, and I preferred those over Harry Potter. I have see all the movies, and I want to read Fantastic Beast, as I believe I will love that world and those characters more. 2- I hate mystery and horror novels. I know how odd this might sound to some people. I'm just not a fan because they creep me out and I am more skittish than most people. This is a beloved genre, so I think this is an Unpopular opinion? The exception to thi...
