A few bonus ones, if you're up to it...

Do you buy books new or used?

Movie adaptation you liked more than you liked the book?

Fictional character you most identify with?

Is there a book that changed your life?

Who is your favorite author?

Have you met any authors in person?

Stranded on a desert island with only one book... which one is it?

user2637 08/30/2013 #

^^ Nice!

I did this swap when it was public and none of those people are in the group, so hehehe I get to 'reuse' some of my answers. Obvi what I'm reading now is different, but my fav genre is the same. ;)

KateKintail 08/30/2013 #

@user2637 I did it back when it was public, too, but definitely a few of my answers have changed. It'll be great to revisit them and I'll have to do all the bonus questions to challenge myself ;-)

ImzadiRose 09/ 5/2013 #
  • Do you read mainly series or stand alone books?
  • Does your SO read as well? What is there favorite book/author?
  • Do you challenge yourself to read a certain amount of books a year (like the GoodReads challenge)?
  • Have you hit your goal each time?
  • Do you refuse to read books outside your comfort zone, or do you enjoy trying something new?

Bonus ones:

If you have seen the movie First, will you go back and read the book?

Have you read 50 shades of grey? Thoughts.

How do you pick out a book to read?

Have you ever been to a book signing?

Where do you purchase your books?

Do you first look up a book online and read the reviews on a book you currently want to read? Has the comments ever swayed you to NOT read the book?

ImzadiRose 09/10/2013 #

LOL at the 50 Shades question @Littletiscrafty . I don't know if anyone wants to hear my rambling negative thoughts on that one. :D

Littletiscrafty 09/12/2013 #

@imzadiRose - that is why I posted it. I have NEGATIVE things to say about it as well lol

ImzadiRose 09/13/2013 #

LOL! Hope to get yours @Littletiscrafty to learn what you think. :)

Sorry for my grammar up there. "There", instead of "Their". UGH!! That's what I get when I type too fast and don't pay attention.

ImzadiRose 09/15/2013 #
