The Book Blogger Test

Hi there! So, this would be my very first book tag that I'm gonna post. Thanks to Raffy at Eccentric Everything for tagging me!

for the sake of having a picture

THE BOOK BLOGGER TEST

1.) What are your top book pet hates?

I must say that I really abhor- yes, abhor- damsels in distress. Also, I don't like the cliche plots like: a.) bad boy meets good girl and falls in love with her, causing him to become a good boy; b.) nerdy girl falls in love with a heartthrob, then she goes on a makeover and magically becomes pretty; and etc. I also hate cliffhangers. With the exception of some books. Haha.



2.) Describe your perfect reading spot.

I always read books whenever I'm lying down. Haha. But, I think that the perfect reading spot would be a peaceful airconditioned place with bean bags. It would be a bonus if I were drinking hot choco of some sort. (Well, hot choco would be nice except if I'm reading books that are suuuuper feels-y because, you know, I might spill the hot choco on the precious pages of the book while squealing.)


3.) Tell us three book confessions.

• I was reading The Selection by Kiera Cass, and I got so bored that I didn't even bother to finish it. Because of the lack of action, I gave away the book without finishing it. Now, I regret doing it because they say that The Elite is way better than The Selection, so I guess that I'd have to buy a copy of The Selection again.
• I still haven't finished reading Shatter Me, and it has already been 3 months. Why? Because I always put it on idle mode (lol) whenever I want to read another book.
• I am not a huge fan of Ransom Riggs. Yes, I've read Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, and I liked it; but I don't really find it that good.

4.) When was the last time you cried during a book?

I didn't really cry cry, but you know, I just had a lot of self-reflection in The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer, so I sort of cried a single tear. Do you even get me? Mara Dyer has some sort of disorder, and because of that disorder, she's having trouble with herself. I have trouble with myself. So, does that make more sense now?

But, if that answer won't be deemed acceptable, I cried a lot when I re-read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows because of (insert a lot of characters' names here) death.


5.) How many books are on your bedside table?

Two. Eleanor and Park, and Shatter Me.


6.) What is your favorite snack while reading?

It might seem a bit weird, but I enjoy eating Oreo whenever I read books.


7.) Name 3 books you'd recommend to everyone.

Three books are rather inadequate, so I'd recommend three series-es.

1. The Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling
2. Percy Jackson and the Olympians; The Heroes of Olympus by Rick Riordan
3. The Mara Dyer trilogy by Michelle Hodkin

8.) Show us a picture of your bookshelf?

My bookshelf stands beside the trash can. HAHA. I have a crappy phone camera, I know. Sorry. But yeah, I have more books inside random boxes around my room and I'm too lazy to actually fix them. Besides, some of my books are already crammed into this puny bookshelf, so I don't think that my other books would fit here. I NEED A NEW BOOKSHELF, oh gods.

I am tagging Jericco at A City of Words. Thank you for reading!
