Ultimate book-tag

1. Do you get sick while reading in the car?
It depends. I can read in the car/bus when we are in the city, but in long trips I can't read.

2. Which author's writing style is completely unique to you and why?
Alison McGuee. Totally astonishing. Her book 'All rivers flow to the see' was a mind-blown.

3. Harry Potter Series or the Twilight Saga? Give 3 points to defend your answer.
As bad as it sounds, I haven't read any HP books, and I have only read the two last books in the Twilight saga, but I was just PSH MEH about them. So I'll probably give it to Harry Potter because I hope I'll love the books when I read them (and I hope it'll be soon).

4. Do you carry a book bag? If so, what is it in (besides books...)?
If you mean the back-pack I carry to uni, there's my pencil case, a bottle of water, a little umbrella, some food, tissues, my purse, my cel phone, my keys...

5. Do you smell your books?
Yes (?)

6. Books with or without little illustrations?
I don't really care. I mean, if a book happens to have illustrations I like it but I'm not intentionly looking for them.

7. What book did you love while reading but discovered later it wasn't quality writing? (Ex. I read Twilight before I read HP and thought the writing was amazing but read HP and now think Twilight is a little bit of a joke.)
I don't really know. I mean, I have this feeling that now that I'm reading more books, I'm not so excited as before when I read a mediocre book, but I can't really point at any past book.

8. Do you have any funny stories involving books from your childhood? Please share!
It's not funny but it's the only thing I have... so, I absolutely loved a book about gnomes and fairies and witches and my favourite page of the book was the one with all the different categories of brooms, and every once in a while I would pick up the book and spend hours re-reading that page and simply looking at the drawings.

9. What is the thinnest book on your shelf?
The Little Prince and some books from my childhood.

10. What is the thickest book on your shelf?
A bilingual edition of Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass.

11. Do you write as well as read? Do you see yourself in the future as being an author?
My biggest dream is to be an author. I do write, of course.

12. When did you get into reading?
I don't know, when I learnt how to read?

13. What is your favorite classic book?
I'm ashamed of saying this but I haven't read a lot of classics. My favourite would be Lady Chatterley's lover.

14. In school was your best subject Language Arts/English?
I was really good at english (but I don't live in an english speaking country, though).

15. If you were given a book as a present that you had read before and hated...what would you do?
Tell the person that I'm sorry but I have to change the book because of those reasons.

16. What is a lesser known series that you know of that is similar to Harry Potter or the Hunger Games?
I try to read different books so I don't know.

17. What is a bad habit you always do (besides rambling) while blogging?
Watch youtube videos, listen to music, check my twitter timeline...

18. What is your favorite word?
Literature (duh).

19. Are you a nerd, dork, or dweeb? Or all of the above?
Nerdfighter.

20. Vampires or Fairies? Why?
Not any of them? I'm tired of vampires and I don't really see the funny thing about fairies.

21. Shapeshifters or Angels? Why?
If you mean shapeshifters like werewolves, definitely shapeshifters, but if not, angels. I need to read more angel books though.

22. Spirits or Werewolves? Why?
Both! I love paranormal stuff as you can see.

23. Zombies or Vampires?
None of them.

24. Love Triangle or Forbidden Love?
Forbidden love, because it's a bit more realistic (?) Like, in forbidden love both characters love each other and they would be together if it wasn't for their conditions, but a love triangle? It's just stupid, choose already and stop the games.

25. AND FINALLY: Full on romance books or action-packed with a few love scenes mixed in?
Again I have to say none really? I prefer action-packed books but only if the romance makes sense. Otherwise is stupid.


Thanks for reading it! If you want to do the tag, feel free, I had fun doing it :)
