Bookish Facts About Me!

By
So, I decided to tell you guys a little bit about myself through book related stuff, so you can get to know me a little better.

So, let’s just jump right in!

  •          I would really love to be in Dauntless but I’m probably more Erudite. (Divergent by Veronica Roth)
  •         I’m a SLYTHERIN!!! Yeah!
  •         My patronus is a white swan
  •          I always have at least two books on me at all times
  •          I will read anywhere and everywhere (No joke)
  •          I usually like to get all my reading done during the day, I’m not a huge night owl (Unless it comes to a read-a-thon, then I never sleep)
  •          The first booktuber I ever watched was Katytastic
  •          I’m not quite sure which book or series got me into reading, but I know I love it now!
  •         I have a kitten named Bruce, he doesn’t like for me to read.
  •           Imostly read YA, Fantasy and Sci-Fi. But I’m trying to branch out and read different genres.
  •         I am a really fast reader most of the time
  •          I have never been to a book signing or anything like BookCon or BookExpo (Although I REALLY want to go)

    This is a cute idea :)

    I am a very proud Ravenclaw and my patronus is a Butterfly! I strive to be the kind of person that would be in Amity, but I honestly think I would be in Erudite too. I also always have two books on me at all times, however one is for me and the other is a childrens book for my daughter.

    I'm more of an evening reader, once the child is in bed. I like curling up and winding down from a busy day with a good book, however that often means I stay up way too late! I have honestly never watched a booktuber, but I guess I should start! I already loved to read from a very young age, but the two books that really started my life long love and obsession with books were Treasure Island and Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone.

    I was gifted a beautiful little Kitten for my 10th birthday, and I named him Harry Potter. I had Harry for almost 16 years before he went to sleep. I also mostly read YA, Fantasy and Sci-Fi. However I also love Memoirs, Romance, Classics and Surrealism! I have been terrible with the variety I've been reading this year so I need to sort that out and branch out genre wise.

    I feel like I am quite a fast reader, but I don't get a whole lot of time to read so it evens out to a moderate speed. I have been to a few book signings before, but nothing as big as some of the book conventions I see overseas! Here in NZ we have one called the Readers and Writers Festival, and although it is fun, I wish I could head to a bigger and better one!

    I have a pretty decent bookmark collection, but I try and collect plants mentioned in books. I adore plants and flowers, so if one is mentioned in a book I usually do some research and try and fit it into my house if I can. I hope one day to have a lot of land so I can plant trees mentioned in books too!

    That was fun :)

      Thank You for sharing! And you should definitely check out booktube! I often get all of my recommendations from there, and I love watching other people's book hauls. I really like your plant idea! that's really cool, and I'm glad you are doing it because if I tried I would end up killing all of them. LoL I don't really have a 'green thumb'

    I'm a total Ravenclaw lol
    I tend to be reading a lot of books simultaneously- I have a "bedtime book", a "purse book" (so I never end up being out somewhere w/out a book! Cuz that's horrible *shudders*) and usually 1-3 non-fiction books I'm working my way through.
    And I want to be an illustrator :)

Between the Notes by Sharon Huss Roat

Goodreads Summary *NO SPOILERS* This book is so beautifully written and intriguing that I want more! This book reminded me a little of Kasie West’s P.S I like you and is one of the reasons I liked it. The main character can be a little annoying at times, and I had to put the book down once or twice from major second-hand embarrassment. Despite that, I really enjoyed this book. Yes, this book does have a love triangle in it, but it is one of those that you love to hate. This story was so cute and charming, I was smiling all the way through. This book also deals with some relevant topics to today, such as: Societal hierarchy, stereotypes, and judgement. This isn’t the first book of its kind, but Roat manages to remake it just enough to be unfamiliar. This book had me on the edge of my seat waiting to see what would come next. The characters were so fun and had so much personality that I felt like I could really relate to each of them. Bonus points are certainly awa

Here and Gone by Haylen Beck

Goodreads Summary *NO SPOILERS* Here and Gone is an alluring tale of a mother’s struggle to reclaim her children from backwards cops while fighting off self-doubts and the public’s condemnation. Overall, I liked Here and Gone . This book is a nice change from my usual reading genres, but I had a few problems with some of the logic in this book. I’m new to reading mysteries/thrillers so I haven’t yet trained my brain to not point out all of the steps not taken to solve the murder/mystery. For example, why don’t people use lie detectors or drug tests to figure out if a suspect really is a suspect? Ignoring these things, I really enjoyed the author’s writing style even though this book took a while to pick up action wise. I was expecting something to blow up or some gun fights right off the bat, but I forgot you also have to tell a story. This being a new experience for me, I think I was expecting more than what the author could give me. I really liked most aspects

Geekerella by Ashley Poston

Goodreads Summary *NO SPOILERS* This story is a tale full of woe and cosplay. Fans of the iconic Princess Cinderella and sci-fi geeks alike will turn into romantics after reading this fun and semi-tragic love story. Although, if you aren’t a fan of fairy-tale spin-offs or damsels in distress, then this book isn’t for you. I had some major issues with this book, from the slow pacing to the characteristic flaws in Elle. I know this is a Cinderella retelling, but I had a hard time getting over the whole ‘helpless princess’ trope. I was okay with her unwillingness to stand up for herself in the beginning, hoping we would see a grand reveal of the fighter underneath. But I was disappointed when Elle continued to give up on herself and her beliefs. Maybe it is just the feminist in me or the fact that I’m surrounded (and constantly inspired) by strong women, but it frustrated me when Elle wouldn’t stand up for herself. Obviously, her character didn’t have that support like I do and
