Sisterhood of the World Bloggers

I love these tag posts! I wasn't sure when I was going to be able to fit this one in but I'm kind of behind on my reading so bam! Here we go.

Rules
- Thank the blogger that nominated you, and link back to their site.
- Post the award’s logo onto your blog.
- Answer the 10 questions you’ve been asked.
- Nominate 10 other bloggers and ask them 10 questions.

I was nominated twice, so thank you to the lovely Brittany at Please Feed the Bookworm and Tracy at Cornerfolds. Both have fantastic blogs and are really


Answers to Britt's Questions
1.) If you could alter one storyline or ending what would it be? It can be anything you want!
So as to avoid spoilers, there is a moment in The Hero of Ages that I will never ever ever be over. I would change that ending.

2.) How many books have you read?
In my whole life? No idea. It's probably close to 1,000. Maybe more.

3.) If you could only read one book/series for the rest of you life, what would it be?
Harry Potter. There are seven books and they never get old, no matter how many times I read them.

4.) Would you survive a zombie apocalypse?
No, and I don't want to! If the zombie apocalypse comes I would much rather become a zombie than try and survive as long as possible. I don't even care if they eat me instead of turn me. I have no skills that would help me survive in any sort of apocalypse!

5.) How do you tell people you're a blogger?
I don't really. If I do I say "I have a book blog." But I'm pretty secretive about it.

6.) What's your latest and greatest ship?
Latest: Adelina and Enzo in The Young Elites. Greatest: Vin and Elend in Mistborn or Chubs and Vida in The Darkest Minds trilogy (they're my new fave OTP)

7.) Name the book you would give your left arm for?
A Court of Thorns and Roses, the final book in The Raven Cycle, and The Winds of Winter!

8.) Who is your favorite author?
I'm not really sure. J.K. Rowling? Gregory Maguire? Rainbow Rowell and Brandon Sanderson are probably the latest faves.

9.) Why did you start book blogging?
To be able to share my love of books with others and to talk about books with more people.

10.) Show me how GIFted you are - One gif that best describes you!


Answers to Tracy's Questions
1.) What is one book you won't admit to liking?
Probably Twilight. I was a fan of it when it was popular a few years back. I mean I had tons of issues with it, most notably Bella and Edward, but I liked it.

2.) Who is your top book boyfriend?
Seriously Tracy, asking the tough questions. Elends pretty high up there. And Levi in Fangirl. And Thorne in The Lunar Chronicles, and Snape in Harry Potter. I seriously love Snape!

3.) What is your most treasured book?
That is another really tough question. I have a copy of Eats Shoots and Leaves that my aunt gave me before she passed away. It always makes me think of her and it's pretty special.

4.) What is one movie that you think was better than the book?
Stardust. But that may be because I listened to the audio book version which was not very good. 

5.) Have you ever written a super embarrassing fanfic
Yes! I used to write Harry Potter fanfiction that I was too embarrassed to show anyone. I read some of it recently and it is hilariously bad! 

6.) Do you prefer character or plot-driven books?
Plot-driven. I need good characters but if the plot isn't top notch then I won't enjoy the book.

7.) What is your favorite social media outlet for blogging?
Twitter. I am a Twitter fiend.

8.) Does your family read your blog
Nope. I know they know about it but they don't really read it.

9.) How many books have you reviewed this year?
I have reviewed 97 but I am about to finish my 100th book.

10.) What is the best giveaway you've won as a blogger?
I recently won a giveaway from GReads that was for The Young Elites and the entire Legend trilogy. That was a pretty fantastic giveaway!
