QUESTIONS:

Which is your all-time favourite book? I have a hard time picking favourites, because it changes from day to day and also because there are a lot of books I love for different reasons which makes it impossible for me to choose an all-time favourite. Anyway, that being said, The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern is definitely one of my current favourites.

Do you ever eat while reading a book? Yes. Or I try to at least. Holding the book open with one hand while eating with the other, trying not to get any crumbs or smudges on the pages… It’s always a bit of a hassle

Do you use a bookmark/fold the pages or memorise the page number? I usually use whatever is close as a bookmark. That can be anything from a receipt to an actual bookmark. When there is nothing resembling a bookmark in my immediate surroundings, I just remember the page number. I’ll never fold the pages. I just can’t. 

Is there a book edition you are particularly fond of? Not really. There are a lot of beautiful book editions out there that I’d love to own though.

What is the average number of books you buy when you enter a bookshop? About two. I’d love to say it’s because I have quite a bit of self control, but actually it’s just because my bank account isn’t really able to support my book buying addiction.

MY QUESTIONS:

1. What book you love is underrated in your opinion?

2. What upcoming book release are you excited for?

3. What fictional creature would you like to own as a pet?

4. Do you often lend your books out?

5. What book would you recommend to someone who is in a reading slump?

I am hereby tagging owlandbook, booksandsugarquills, recreationalbookuse, bookwardeverlasting and turningpagebooks.

Have a lovely day! xxx

Questions:

1. Which is your all-time favourite book?

How about top 3? I can't choose one! Ok: Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, Pirates! by Celia Rees, and Holes by Louis Sachar

2. Do you ever eat while reading a book?

Yes. Only snack-y foods though. I am too liable to spill. 

3. Do you use a bookmark/fold the page or memorise the page number?

I go between dog-earing and using a bookmark.

4. Is there a book edition you are particularly fond of?

I love them all.

5. What is the average number of books you buy when you enter a bookshop?

I usually buy my books used online. If I do go buy them somewhere in person, its my local charity shop. In which case I usually buy around 3 or 4 because they're so cheap.

Alrighty, my questions:

1. Favorite genre?

2. Favorite series?

3. Go to comforting read?

4. Book you have been avoiding and why?

5. Book you will always recommend?

Questions for me

1) Which is your favourite book edition that you own?

I'm glad I've got these editions of Chaos Walking because I really don't like these covers.

2) Can you read books while other people are speaking?

Yes, I probably do it too often.

3) Are you obsessed with any author?

I guess the fact that I follow/ stalk John Green on every social networking site imaginable amounts to an obsession.

4) Are you looking forward to any book-to-movie adaptation?

TFIOS! I've been disappointed by so many YA movies that have come out and I think some of the ones we're waiting for are going to be a big let down, but I think TFIOS is going to be perfect.

5) Do you read every day? 

Yes, apart from when I'm reading hardcovers because I daren't take them in the bath. But pretty much every day.

asymmetricconstellations hat gesagt: bookdepository.com/sear… Free shipping worldwide!:)

Hey! Thanks for the advice, but sadly, the bookdepository isn't really usable for me since I don't have a credit card. Also, in this case, the book is only about 1€ cheaper than on amazon, so it doesn't make that much of a difference. I have seen really cheap books on this page already and was always so angry because I couldn't order there! Also, just in case you suggested this as an alternative to Amazon because you don't agree with Amazon's policy or their growing power, please be aware that the bookdepository has actually already been bought by Amazon. I'm not sure if this was really your intend, but I've seen a lot of people listing it as an alternative to Amazon, so I just thought I'd mention it. Thanks a again for your answer though! :)

The Fault in our Stars or The Book Thief

2)    Longest read this year? 

Monsters of Men by Patrick Ness

3)    Author you are most jealous of?

two, but only because I'm reading one for school and want to read my own as well, I hate reading multiple books at once

I've got this edition of Looking for Alaska and it really annoys me because if I'd have waited another couple of months I could have bought this one which is so much nicer.

9)    Favourite hour of the day for reading?

Three-ish when I'm on the bus home from school.

10)  Life-changing book?

Harry Potterr
