1. We must all face the choice between what is right and what is easy ~ Albus Dumbledore
What is a book that was hard to finish but you finished it anyway?
This is a tough one, because I don't tend to continue reading if I find the book boring. But for this one I will go with To Kill Mocking Bird by Harper Lee. Although I ended up liking this book, at first it was painstakingly boring.
2. If you don't want me to be in love with you, you're going to have to stop looking so lovely ~ Maxon Schreave
What is a book that you bought solely because the of the cover?
I should start this off by saying you should take the saying 'don't judge a book by it's cover' literally. Some books have amazing covers and horrible stories while others are the opposite. But if I'm going to be honest here, we all do it. Everybody is going to pick up the book with the pretty cover before they pick up the book with the ugly cover. Anyway, here's my pick. This book has my favourite cover. The crown upside down with the blood dripping down, it just gives me the feels. Sends shivers down my back. I really life the simple covers. I don't like it when there is a lot of stuff going on in one page. That is also part of the reason I like this cover.
3. I'm not crazy. My reality is just different from yours ~ Cheshire Cat
What's a book that you liked but everyone else hated?
I guess I can say Twilight by Stephanie Meyer for this one. I liked Twilight while almost everyone I know talked about how much they hated it.
4. And in that moment, I swear we were infinitive. ~ Perks of Being a Wallflower
What's a book you wish would have never ended?
Harry Potter! The entire series is just so epic and amazing. I was so upset when it finished so I would have loved for it to have been longer.
5. Books! And Cleverness! There are more important things - friendship and bravery ~ Hermione Granger
What bookish friendship is your favourite?
Marlee Tames and America Singer. They met on the airplane on the way to the selection and were almost instantly friends. They had their ups and downs but they always come back to each other. They always have each other's backs.
6. Sometimes crying and laughing are the only options left, and laughing feels better right now ~ Divergent
What's a book that made you laugh till you cried?
The Princess Diaries was a really funny book. I downloaded it as an audio book to listen while on a road trip. It was a very funny book.
7. Her only way home was to betray her friend ~ Uglies (*spoilers*)
What was your least favourite bookish betrayal?
When Maven betrayed Mara. Although I saw it coming, I was still heartbroken when it happened.
8. I told you to hide your heart once. You should have listened ~ Red Queen
What's an author that killed your favourite character? Which book and which character? (*spoilers*)
Kiera Cass. Celeste had just made into the top 5 of my favourite characters and then she's killed. And in the same chapter, just pages later, Queen Amberly dies. The one character I really wanted to be in America's life after America and Maxon got married.
9. Before you my life was like a moonless night. Very dark. And then you shot across my sky like a meteor ~ Twilight
What's a book that shot across your book radar like a meteor? (What's a book that got you out of a reading slump?)
I was in a reading slump for a couple months in 2016. I tried to pick up books to read but I just couldn't get into any of them. Then I picked up Matched by Allie Condie and then I couldn't stop reading.
(Fun Fact: The third book in the Matched Series (Reached) almost put my in another reading slump)
10. Don't think or judge. Just Listen. ~ Just Listen
What book has a terrible cover but an amazing story, plot and writing style? (in your opinion)
If you want my explanation about judging a book by it's cover, go back to the first 4 sentences of question 2.The Silenced by James DeVita. This book is amazing book with a very moving plot. But the cover wasn't superb. The face with the orange. Just not very pretty.
Thanks for reading! Have an awesome day. See you next week!
