24 questions on books? Of course I'll answer them.

Nov 15, 2016

I haven't been able to read as much as I used to ever since school started back up. I've missed reading for fun (as I like to call it), and just talking about books in general. So when I came across this book tag, you bet I just had to share...let's get to it.

E-Book or Physical Book?

Physical. E-books make it difficult to re-read, especially your favorite parts.

Paperback or Hardback?

To read? Paperback. To sit on my bookshelf and look pretty? Hardback.

Online or In-Store Book Shopping?

In-store. Monthly Half-Price Books rounds are the best.

Trilogies or Series?

Series.

Heroes or Villains?

Heroes, but I can appreciate a great villain.

A book you want everyone to read?

The Martian, by Andy Weir, because Mark Watney's humor is one of the best things ever. Also, space.

Recommend an underrated book?

Things We Know By Heart, by Jessi Kirby. "Perfect for fans of Sarah Dessen, this unique and emotional story about an unexpected bond between two strangers will leave no heart untouched."

The last book you finished?

For school or for fun? For school, Evelina, by Frances Burney (3/5 but would not pick up 'for fun') and for fun, Famous Last Words, by Katie Alender (also 3/5).

The Last Book You Bought?

Kill The Boy Band, by Goldy Moldavsky. "From thrilling new talent Goldy Moldavsky comes a pitch-black, hilarious take on fandom and the badass girls who have the power to make—or break—the people we call 'celebrities.' "

Weirdest Thing You've Used as a Bookmark?

A hairbrush.

Used Books: Yes or No?

Yes.

Top Three Favorite Genres?

Contemporary, Fantasy/Sci-fi, and Young Adult/New Adult Friction.

Borrow or Buy?

Buy.

Characters or Plot?

Characters. I'm not going to enjoy the story if I don't like the characters.

Long or Short Books?

Long, duh.

Long or Short Chapters?

Short. It feels like your reading a lot quicker. Plus, long chapters tend to drag.

Name The First Three Books You Think Of...

Red Rising (Pierce Brown), Slammed (Colleen Hoover), and Me Before You (Jojo Moyes).

Books That Makes You Laugh or Cry?

LAUGH.

Our World or Fictional Worlds?

Fictional, again duh.

Audiobooks: Yes or No?

No. Honestly, they weird me out, and I zone out while listening.

Do You Ever Judge a Book by its Cover?

Heck yeah I do. I own lots of pretty books that I hated.

Book to Movie or Book to TV Adaptations?

Movie.

A Movie or TV-Show You Preferred to its Book?

The Hunger Games Trilogy.

Series or Standalone's?

Having more of the characters I love is great, but when it comes down to it, a lot of the times the first book is usually the best. But, I guess, like Jesse, from jessethereader, says, it does depend on the genre. (See video below.)

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

SUNY Binghamton

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.
