New haul coming on Tuesday!

Can't wait to get them!  I'll finally have enough books to read in the coming days! SO EXCITED!!!!

Wonder is actually an Audiobook that I'll start listening to after I'm done with 

The Night Circus

I just picked this book up today a couple hours ago, and am already whizzing through it.  It's such a magical tale.  The writing style is perfect, and makes it so you almost taste the caramel apples, and feel the birds whizzing by you.  So far, it's amazing!

Introductions

I have not always been an avid reader.  In fact, I would say it was quite the opposite back in my high school days.  But over the past few years (I’m 25 now) I have grown to love reading.  I’ve wanted to discuss books with friends, but most of my friends either don’t really read, or don’t read the same books as I.  So, I decided to start this blog.  

Instead of me rambling on and on, I’ll do this little book questionnaire

Do you have any idea what you’ll read when you’re done with that? Well, I ordered 5 more books from Amazon that should be here on Tuesday.  I will most likely start reading The Name Of The Wind by Patrick Rothfuss.  I have heard nothing but good things!

1. Dune by Frank Herbert

2. The Silmarillion by J.R.R. Tolkien

3. Watership Down by Richard Adams

4. Easy of Eden by John Stieinbeck

5. Hamlet - William Shakespeare 

What magazines do you have in your bathroom/ lounge right now?None.  I honestly carry my phone in with me.  haha

What’s the worst book you’ve ever read? 
1984 by Orwell.  I know that this may piss a lot of people off.  But, I just couldn’t get into it.  Though, I have only read it once, back in high school.  Maybe if I give it a second try, my opinion may change.

What book seemed really popular but you didn’t like? Again…1984.  ugh.

What’s the one book you always recommend to just about everyone? Catcher In the Rye.  It is my all time favorite book.  I will recommend it to anyone who is willing to listen.

What are your three favorite poems?

1.Variation On The Word Sleep by Margaret Atwood

2. The Albatross by Kate Bass

3. Anagrammer by Peter Pereira

Where do you usually get your books? Amazon.com, borrow from friends, the library, also audible.com for my audiobooks.

When you were little, did you have any particular reading habits? Not really, no.  I actually didn’t read too much as a kid.  For shame, i know.

What’s the last thing you stayed up half the night reading because it was too good to put down?  The Fault In Our Stars.  Absolutely loved it!  

Have you ever “faked” reading a book? For school…yes.

Have you ever bought a book just because you liked the cover? Not really.  If the cover interests me, I read the little blurb to see if it’s a book that would actually interest me.

What was your favourite book when you were a child? Anything by Dr. Seuss

What book changed your life? Catcher In The Rye.  I read it in high school.  I feel like it changed me.  I viewed my life a bit differently.  Whether it was negatively or positively is a matter to be seen.  But, I loved it.

What is your favorite passage from a book? 

"The mark of an immature man is that he wants to die nobly for a cause, while the mark of the mature man is that he wants to live humbly for one." 

Who are your top five favorite authors? (Aside from number 1, in no particular  order)

1. John Green

2. Salinger

3. Grisham

4. Palahniuk

5. Not sure…

What book has no one heard about but should read?  I don’t really have an answer for this one.  I loved the book by Doyle Brunson “Super System”, but it is more of a informational book about poker.

What is your favourite classic book?  The Catcher In The Rye.
