2) What was your favorite read from 2016?

I really enjoyed The Testing trilogy by Joelle Charbonneau!

3) What is your favorite read of 2017 so far?

I loved Shadow and Bone, the first in the Grisha trilogy, written by Leigh Bardugo. I really need to finish the rest of the series!

4) Do you read more than one book at once? Why? Why not?

I didn’t until this year! Now I am reading three/five books at the same time. I think it is me trying to read my TBR, my review copies, and more all at the same time.

5) Do you enjoy reading classics?

I am currently reading Anna Karenina (One of the reasons I am reading multiple books at the same time). I sometimes feel like I should know these classics so I read them, but I prefer more modern literature. I do enjoy some classics such as A Separate Piece by John Knowles, Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, and 1984 by George Orwell.

6) What is your ideal reading spot?

I usually read in bed but I also love reading on a couch that sits at the front of my house because it gets a lot of natural light, which I love.

7) Do you read when you travel?

I do not travel a lot and when I do it is to see family so I usually do not have enough time. However, I bring many books to read for when I get a chance and for during the flight.

8) How many books do you read in a month (approximately)?

Um… it varies. Somewhere between 2-4

9) How many books do you read in a year (approximately)?

I read about 20 last year, I think. But I set my goodreads goal to 50 this year for some reason. I guess I had a burst of confidence…

10) What is your favorite genre? Why?

I love science fiction, fantasy, and dystopian. I usually read in the YA age group.

11) Do you read more during a particular season than other seasons?

I read more in the summer and winter than in the fall and spring. Interesting question, I wonder why that it.

  1. Thanks for the tag. I didn’t read more than one book at time until I started blogging and joined the book community. Now I usually have 2-3 ish going on at once.
