The 20
Questions Book Tag
Hey! So as all of you must know by now I’m a
private person and complete introvert. I’m
working on this (I promise) and trying to change my ways 😊. With this I’ve decided to complete a book
tag. This one I found as a result of @natashaisbooked
1 - How many books is too many books in a
series?
For me, I
start losing the interest and the original excitement for the series around
book 4. I find so many times we are left
waiting for a sequel to be published while in the interim reading new books and
starting new series that it is hard to remember the intricacies that make up
any given series.
2 - How do you feel about cliff hangers?
I have a
love/hate relationship with cliff hangers.
I do love a well done cliff hanger but waiting too long for the next
installment is aggravating.
3 - Hardback or Paperback?
I would
have to say paperback. I love the
pliability making it easy to read and manipulate wherever I am
4 - Favourite book?
I don’t
think this is a question I’ll ever be able to answer. I love books and like any book lover, devour
as many books as I am able. As result,
there are too many books that I have loved and thought “this is the best book
ever” only to feel the same way about another book I read.
5 - Least favourite book?
I don’t
really have a least favourite book. I read
to immerse myself in another world, for leisure and for fun. Because of that, I “scout” my books rigorously. Covers, that pull me in, then the blurb/synopsis
and then reviews. I want to enjoy
reading and will make every effort to choose a book that is to my liking.
6 - Love triangles, yes or no?
Triangles-yes,
cheating-no. That is not to say that I
don’t read romance where one or both of the characters cheat, just that it is
not my preference.
7 - The most recent book you just couldn't
finish?
As I said
above I normally choose my books very wisely.
I cannot remember the last time I DNF a book.
8 - A book you're currently reading?
The
current book I am reading is The First Time at Firelight Falls by Julie Anne
Long
9 - The last book you recommended to someone?
The last
book I 100% recommended (hands down, without a doubt) was Sergio by Natasha
Knight.
.
10 - The oldest book you've read (publication
date)?
I don’t read
many classics so I believe the oldest book I have read is Pride and Prejudice
by Jane Austen
11 - Newest book you've read (publication date)
The most
recent book I’ve read is the completion of the Saint-Sinner duet called El
Pecador. It is written by M. Robinson.
12 - Favourite author?
Although
I mostly stick to one genre which is romance, I read so many sub-genres. So I have many different favourite authors depending
on the sub-genre. I love Lisa Kleypas,
Julia Quinn, Gena Showalter, Chloe Neill, Willow Winters, Pepper Winters,
Natasha Knight, K Webster… This list goes on and on. If I’ve read more than one of their books,
their writing appeals to me and thus their books are picked up again and again.
13 - Buying books or borrowing books?
Buying
books.
14 - A book you dislike that everyone else
seems to love?
I don’t
think I have one.
15 - Bookmarks or dog ears?
Unfortunately,
although I know many think its sacrilege, dog ears. I was never really fond of bookmarks
16 - A book you can always reread?
There are
so many that I have reread. The
Wallflower series by Lisa Kleypas, Gena Showalter, Lords of the Underworld
Series, Larissa Ione, The Demonica Series and so many more
17 - Can you read while hearing music?
Yes, I
was and am always able to tune out any background noise when needed.
18 - One POV or multiple POV's (POV = points of
view)
If I had
to choose I would say multiple POV but I have enjoyed books written in both.
19 - Do you read a book in one sitting or over
multiple days?
Depends
on the book. I have read books in one
sitting while others could take a few days
20 - A book you've read because of the cover?
I would
have to say that most books I read, it was the cover that initially pulled me
in. I don’t often read a book where the
cover has not pulled me in for one reason or another.

Wow, for
someone who normally shares so little, this feels like a grand gesture. Like my whole life is out there for you to
see. LOL! I enjoyed doing this and hopefully you
enjoyed this little peak into my psyche.
For those
of you who follow me, let me know, would you like to see me do more tags? Something you think I should cover in my
blog? I’m all ears to hear from
you. The spotlight is yours!
