I typically only listen to audiobooks when I doing things that make it impossible for me to read instead --driving, running, walking, sometimes cleaning. I still prefer to actually read, but have found some narrators who really do a great job and it lets me get a few more books in each month.

@Cathy so sorry to hear about your cat."
Imke, let me know how the audio goes... I just finished my last audiobook, and will need something for my 5 hour car ride in a few days. :)
1. What novel or series would you most like to see turned into a movie/tv show? Thoughts on who should play the leads? Most times they mess up books that get turned into live action, so I hesitate to say any. But, I think the Red Rising series would probably make a couple of great movies. 2. Do you have a favorite book crush?
Roarke. That's all.
3. Is there a series, or novel, that you love but think hasn't gotten the attention it deserves? I have trouble with these, because my opinions are so different from everyone else. I'm surprised that Kate Daniels hasn't gotten more attention outside of my GoodReads groups and friends.
4. What's your go to TV snack? Anything with salt.
5. What was the last movie you went to see in the theater? Rogue One.
1. What was your favorite vacation?I took a Scandanavian Cruise a few years ago that would not have been my first choice, but ended up being just beautiful. Loved every minute of it.
2. What's your favorite dessert?
Apple pie with crumbly top and ice cream.
3. What are your favorite TV shows? Right now the only one I make a point to watch is Survivor -- yes, I'm a die hard and still love it. But I'm not much of a tv person since I went to an antenna a few years ago and realized I didn't miss it as much as I thought I would
4. Do you have any pets? What are they?
I only have a moderately spoiled Italian mastiff right now. I'm pretty sure he is the only pet he will permit in the house. :)
Shannon, sorry to hear about your buddy. It's always gut wrenching when you lose one.
5. What's your preference: ebook or hardback/paperback?
As long as it will fit in my purse, it doesn't matter to me. :)

Sigh. Buffy. Firefly. The good days! I still watch those randomly they were so good.

I'm going to try to read
for BOM if I can get it from the library in time. I'll probably try
as well. Not sure about writing questions though....
1. What are your favorite book genres to read? What do you least like to read? I'm a sucker for romance (historical, contemporary, PNR --doesn't matter), urban fantasy and YA fantasy. I haven't gotten into high fantasy because I'm always intimidated by the page length, but would love some recs from the fantasy lovers here. I haven't done much non-fiction, but I have read some that were truly fascinating. 2. What are 5 of your favorite books?
3. What was your favorite book as a child?
I loved the Trixie Belden series when I was younger. Anyone who is not from the states and not my age probably has never heard of it, but it had a Nancy Drew/Hardy Boys kind of thing going on.
4. What's your favorite kind of book challenge?
I love team challenges -- especially when they make me read something I wouldn't normally.
5. Favorite color?
Pink. Gosh, I'm such a girl.
Yay! We're open! I'm Stacey from North Carolina in the States. This will be my 3rd Tower Team. This one was my gateway challenge a few years ago, and now I'm hopelessly addicted. Claire, I'm in the midst of Bookshelf Bingo myself -- it seems like we may be getting down to the end!
I'm willing to read just about any genre, I've even finished a few non-fiction books this year-- but tend to go romance, UF, YA and PNR. I haven't been consistent with BOMs, but I'm willing to try a few during Towers.
