The Liebster Award!
Hello bookworms and welcome back my beloved friends, to my blog! Today I have a long overdue award nomination that I was nominated for by the lovely Alice @ Raptureinbooks! I suggest giving her lovely blog a click and possibly a follow because she is quite lovely!
Now, on with the award. This award requires me to answer eleven questions given to me by my lovely nominator, so let’s do this shall we?
If you had just £15 to buy one book for a whole year – paperback or hardback (we all know ebooks are cheaper no cheating now!) what would you buy and why?
Woah girl, how could you ask such a question?! This decision will break my heart! I suppose I would buy a paperback version of The Rest Of Us Just Live Here by Patrick Ness, because I would savor that bad boy like no other! Now as my heart breaks for having to make a single choice, I move on to the next question!
Pick one character from your favourite book and describe them in five words or less.
So obviously through my fangirling, you must know by now that the Throne of Glass series is my favourite series of all flipping time. AND I FINISHED QUEEN OF SHADOWS TODAY. I am a pile of melted feels. Honestly. How will I ever write a review of that beautiful book?
I digress. In honor of my spontaneous meltdown of fangirling and feels, I pick Rowan: warrior, prince, has my heart. That was five words right? I think so. I LOVE ROWAN, AND YOU ALL MUST KNOW. Now, I cannot handle another moment thinking about that fabulous, attractive, deadly Fae warrior a second longer! *swoons*
What are the reasons you abandon books you’re reading? If you don’t abandon, how do you stick to your guns and finish them even though you want to quit so bad?
If I abandon a book, it’s either because it freaks the hell out of me (The Accident Season), it bores me so much it makes me want to rip my heart out and throw the book into a lake (The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo), or because I just can’t understand what is going on or I can’t click with it by at least 40% the way through.
Yes, I’m not a total angel, I know. We all have our dark sides!
What is your perfect environment to read in? Is it quiet, music on in the background, is there TV or are you alone?
Absolutely dead quiet! I need to immerse myself in the moment, to get the full cinematic experience of the story in my head! If you interrupt me then beware, I bite.
If you had to be an animal from a book (whether it be natural or preternatural) what would you be and why?
Can I please be a ghost leopard? Pretty please? I’d be any type of animal associated with cats. Anyone who has read Queen of Shadows, you know what I’m talking about. *wink*
If the world ended and we all lived in a post-apocalyptic world, which post-apocalyptic world would you prefer to live in?
Holy moly. Okay, as much as I fantasize about our world ending and all of us ending up living in a post-apocalyptic world, the only one I have read about is the apocalyptic world of Angelfall by Susan Ee and goodness gracious, that would be slightly terrifying. But I suppose… If you send Raffe my way, I wouldn’t mind one bit.
Which Hogwarts house would you rather be sorted into and why? (According to the HP website many a year ago I’d be a Hufflepuff, god only knows why)
I feel inadequate to answer this question as I still haven’t read the series! Feel free to throw rotten food at me, I know, it’s absolutely shameful!
Post one book cover that you think describes you best.
Eep! I have no idea! Tell me bookworms, what book cover describes me best? 😉
Now I haven’t read The Selection yet, but could you do it? Join a reality show for the sake of the amusement of others even if it means you become a prince or princess?
As fun as it sounds, no thank you! I’m much content to be me. I have enough trouble putting on a face in my life without having to face the troubles of putting on an entire mask to the world who is watching your every move, listening to your every word! I’ll leave that to America and her stubborn, crazy self!
Describe your favourite book series in one word.
EVERYTHING.
Finally: If you were a talking turtle what would be your first words?
“OH SHIZZLE, I’M A TALKING TURLTLE.” (so lame, I hate these type of questions, someone slap me)
I hope you all had a wonderful time reading my answers! I had so much fun writing this post!
I feel like I’ve been missing or a little bit inactive lately, but I’m going through a dark time right now! It took a lot to pull myself out of that dark place to make this post, but hopefully I will see you all tomorrow with a Discussion Thursday post!
