Greetings, all!
I was tagged by the lovely Kendra Lynne to participate in
this 20 Questions Book Tag!
Rules:
She has no idea who did this tag, or what the rules are, so
I’m just going to assume they’re the normal tag rules. XD
Thank you for tagging me, Kendra! Let’s get started.
1. how many books are too many books in a book
series?
(That is a lot of books. XD) I
honestly don’t think you can have too many! The biggest series I have read is
the Redwall series by Brian Jaqcues with a whopping total of 22 novels and 2
children’s books. My personal preference is around 8-10 books, but I will
gladly read as many books as there are in a series.
2. how do you feel about cliffhangers?
Mwuahahahaha…I love them. As my
poor beta readers know, when I write stories, I tend to leave them ALL. ON. A.
CLIFFHANGER. EVERY ONE. And it’s awesome.
3. hardback or paperback?
I don’t care either way. Hardbacks
are prettier, I do admit, but they’re more expensive. :-Z
4. favorite book?
YOU CAN’T ASK ME TO ONLY PICK ONE.
IT’S NOT POSSIBLE. I LIKE TOO MANY.
5. least favorite book?
Erm…let’s see…actually, I can’t
think of one. I’ve started some books that I ended up not finishing, but that
was mostly because of content issues. I usually like all the books I read.
6. love triangles, yes or no?
NOPE. I always feel so
bad for the person who isn’t loved in return *cough, cough* Legolas and
Peeta *cough, cough* Although I do admit, sometimes they can further a
plot. Sometimes.
7. the most recent book you just couldn’t finish?
Tales of Redwall: Martin the
Warrior by Brian Jaqcues. I’ve read it two or three times before, so it wasn’t
a huge deal. I just got into another book instead. :-P
8. a book you’re currently reading?
Ranger’s Apprentice: The Kings of
Clonmel by John Flanagan.
9. last book you recommended to someone?
Fawkes by Nadine Brandes.
10. oldest book you’ve read? (publication date)
So, I’ve read a ton of really old
books, but most of them weren’t officially published
until more recently (because the printing press even wasn’t invented until
1440-1450...). So, the only old book I know the publishing date for certain is
Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners by John Bunyan, published in 1666. :-)
11. newest book you’ve read? (publication date)
I think it’s Fawkes (again) by Nadine
Brandes, published in 2018.
12. favorite author?
Arg. Another favorite. *glares at
tag* Probably C.S. Lewis, followed closely by J.R.R. Tolkien, N.D. Wilson, and
Douglas Bond.
13. buying books or borrowing books?
Buying. Because then I can own
them and smell them and read them WHENEVER I WANT. But borrowing will work when
I don’t have money. XD
14. a book you dislike that everyone else seems
to love?
N\A.
15. bookmarks or dog-ears?
BOOKMARKS. NO DOG-EARS.
16. a book you can always reread?
The Greatest Adventures of
Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle. <333
17. can you read while hearing music?
Yes, but only instrumental music.
18. one POV or multiple POVs?
I like both. :-D
19. do you read a book in one sitting or over
multiple days?
It depends on how intriguing it is
and how much time I have to spend; but I prefer in one sitting.
20. who do you tag?
My favorite part!!! XD

ReplyDeleteTHE REDWALL SERIES HAD 22 BOOKS??? Gah, that seems like a lot..... I never even went past the second. 😬
(Also, your pictures are so aesthetic. Like, how????)
Isn't it?!?! I had so much fun doing it. :-D
DeleteYES IT DID!!! I think I own about half of them. XD The earlier ones weren't actually as good as the later ones. :-)
(Haha, thanks! <3 I have a lot of fun with book photos. XD)
How fun! I agree--I love Sherlock Holmes as well, those stories are good anytime! :D These pictures are all great! Very fun post. Ooh, and thanks for tagging me! I shall be sure to do this sometime in the (hopefully) near future! :)
ReplyDeleteXD Yes!!! They never get old for me. <3 Thank you!!! Photography is a hobby of mine. XD You're welcome! I can't wait to see your post. :-)
DeleteThanks for tagging me! I'll have to get to this net month. It looks fun.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Rachel! I can't wait to read your post. :-D
DeleteAll of your book pictures are so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI'm always so conflicted on cliffhangers, on one hand they physically and emotionally hurt me, and on the other, they hurt so good??? XD
Thank you, Gray! <3
DeleteHaha, I totally get that. It's a good kind of pain. ;-)
I loved your answers, MEM! I'm currently reading 3 books right now, haha.
ReplyDelete1) Ozland by Wendy Spinale 2)The Boy in the Striped Pajamas and 3) Adventures of Sherlock Holmes.
UGH. I like cliffhangers and I don't like cliffhangers! They keep me awake at night XD(how can I become a beta reader? I'm kind of interested!)
And I can always re-read Sherlock Holmes as well. I love those stories!!!
Thanks Fawnabelle! Cool! I have never read the first two books you motioned; I may need to check them out. XD AND YES FOR SHERLOCK!!! *high fives*
DeleteHeeehee, yes they most certainly do. XD (I may be elaborating on that in the future; my story isn't quite ready for reading yet but when it is I will let you know. ;-D)
YES!!! <3
