The Ultimate Book Tag: You’re It!

I found this fun game over on Books with Bite. It’s called The Ultimate Book Tag and it was the brainchild of Chapter Chicks.

After you read this, you are IT! Leave your blog address in the comment section, and I’ll stop by to say hi!

The Ultimate Book Tag

1. Do you get sick while reading in the car?

No, I don’t. I read the entire HP #5 while driving home from Colorado.

2. Which author’s writing style is completely unique to you and why?

If we’re talking unique, I’d go with China Mieville, author of The Scar. His world-building is phenomenal as is his prose. He’s the first steampunk author I ever read.

3. Harry Potter Series or the Twilight Saga? Give 3 points to defend your answer.

Harry Potter!

1. Molly Weasley is my role model.

2. Every character is amazing!

3. I want to teach at Hogwarts.

4. Do you carry a book bag? If so, what is it in (besides books…)?

Well, my Kindle goes right into my purse, so I guess that would be a book bag with keys, wallet, phone, and (sometimes) money.

5. Do you smell your books?

I’ve been known to do that.

6. Books with or without little illustrations?

Either or. My son gave my daughters the anime Full Metal Alchemist, and I’ve enjoyed reading it.

7. What book did you love while reading but discovered later it wasn’t quality writing? (Ex. I read Twilight before I read HP and thought the writing was amazing but read HP and now think Twilight is a little bit of a joke.)

Flowers in the Attic. (hehe…the defining book for women of my generation!)

8. Do you have any funny stories involving books from your childhood? Please share!

Not really. Reading is serious business!

9. What is the thinnest book on your shelf?

Hmmm…so many shelves to choose from. Probably a copy of The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis.

10. What is the thickest book on your shelf?

The Stand by Stephen King

11. Do you write as well as read? Do you see yourself in the future as being an author?

Lol. Yup. I’m an author for Carina U.K.

12. When did you get into reading?

I was born reading.

13. What is your favorite classic book?

The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck. I know, I know…they made you read it in high school, right? *sigh* Why am I the only one who likes that book??

14. In school was your best subject Language Arts/English?

Yes! Which is why I became an English teacher.

15. If you were given a book as a present that you had read before and hated…what would you do?

I’d thank the giver and then try to exchange the book for something else.

16. What is a lesser known series that you know of that is similar to Harry Potter or the Hunger Games?

Hmmm…that’s a tough one. I think I’ll have to pass on that.

17. What is a bad habit you always do (besides rambling) while filming?

While filming? Err…nothing. Otherwise, I’m obsessive about cleaning up after people. I always put dishes into the dishwasher before people are done with them.

18. What is your favorite word?

Chocolate

19. Are you a nerd, dork, or dweeb? Or all of the above?

I’d say all of the above. Except maybe not dweeb so much.

20. Vampires or Fairies? Why?

Both. Hence the reason I like Kim Harrison and Patricia Briggs novels.

21. Shapeshifters or Angels? Why?

Angels. I love Daughter of Smoke and Bone!

22. Spirits or Werewolves? Why?

Spirits. Werewolves can be overdone. Still, if I can have both, I’d go with that.

23. Zombies or Vampires?

Zombies. Definitely zombies.
