I must admit I rarely do BOMs, mostly because I never have the books that are read and they can be a bit tricky to get a hold of in time without spending money. But if it is a book I plan on reading anyway I might participate!

35559 1. What are your favorite book genres to read? What do you least like to read?
Fantasy (of all kinds), paranormal romance, some YA, romance and historical fiction. The genre I least like to read is poetry. Non-fiction isn't really popular with me either, unless it is a really interesting author or a fascinating subject.

2. What are 5 of your favorite books?
5 books is practicly impossible, so I'll go for the books in 5 favourite series in stead:P
A Court of Mist and Fury (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #2) by Sarah J. Maas Queen of the Darkness (The Black Jewels, #3) by Anne Bishop Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles, #1) by Marissa Meyer Trollbundet (Sagaen om Isfolket, #1) by Margit Sandemo Kushiel's Dart (Phèdre's Trilogy, #1) by Jacqueline Carey

3. What was your favorite book as a child?
Skammerens Datter (Skammerens børn, #1) by Lene Kaaberbøl , but I also had a thing for stories from Norse Myhtology

4. What's your favorite kind of book challenge?
Team challenges, without a doubt. Whether it is spesific tasks or reading lengt isn't too important.

5. Favorite color?
It shifts between green, red and purple on a daily basis:P

35559 Hi everyone, I'm Silje from Norway an this is my second Tower challenge. I'm so excited to get started, just have to finish UNO challenge first.

I see some people I know already on our team and I look forward to get to know the rest=)

I read fantasy, romance and historical fiction mostly, but sometimes take a quick dive into other genres if the book sounds interesting enough=)

My shelf is towerteam5
