Question: 
What books have you discovered lately from some's book blog?
Answer:
Rachel from The Library of LadyV (one of those awesome bloggers that I just love!) wrote a review of revolution and was obsessing over who amazing it was in one of her IMM vlogs. I trust her opinion so I decided I would try it out. She.was.totally.right. If it wasn't for her I don't know if I would know what my favorite book is.

Question: 


What book influenced or changed your life? How did it influence/change you?

Answer:

  The book Thief (I swear I mention this one like every other post!) but for good reason. It changed the way I think. I mentioned it in my review but I'll say it again, it makes you think maybe just maybe not all Germans hated the Jews. Some of them might have just been doing it because the alternative was death.

Question: 
Do you have and under-noticed author that you thing we should know about?
Answer:
I'm gonna change it to somebody I think everybody should read. That being said have you read any of Markus Zusak's books? He is an AMAZING author, I have read both of his books and both have been raw and intriguing. If you haven't read his stuff I suggest you pick up one of his books!

Question: What do you do besides reading/reviewing as a hobby?Answer:Is there suppose to be another hobby? (that was a joke) I like to write and some people say I am good at it. I can't tell if they are just being nice or if they honestly think my stuff is worth wild. I am pretty good in the art department, I mean I'm not FABULOUS but I'm average. (if anyone knows what mlia is you this is a good thing :) Here is my average color pencil drawing :P

This was for a project where we zoomed in on the subject and drew three separate pictures for each zoom. I like to think It goes from best to worst. The last won was just an epic fail and there was no way to fix it! :P [Want to join the following fun? Check out the rules at Parajunkee's View]

Question:

 What very popular and hyped book in the blogosphere did you NOT enjoy and how did you feel about posting your review?

Answer:

The long answer- (scroll down for the short one)

This is going to be a long answer. Remember when Twilight first came out as a book? I was in the book store and my brother said "Hey so-and-so said you might like these books" I am very, VERY proud of my answer. "It's about stupid vampires I KNOW I won't like it!" Well turns out I did. I ended up reading it after listening to a group of people tell me the plot. I really did love them at that point, it was an obsession. Basically I added to the hype that was Twilight. Then the movie hype started and I grew SICK of Twilight.

 I won't post a review of Twilight because everyone has said everything about it and I really don't feel like re-reading it , because I still very sick of all things Twilight. -just sayin

Short answer:

Yes I read Twilight. No I won't review it.

Question:

What are your thoughts on losing followers? Have you ever stopped following a blog?

Answer:

The short answer: I don't care if I lose a follower. Yes I have.

The long answer: I will be sad to see the extra follower go but if they don't like my blog... there isn't anything I can do. And if I don't like a blog or if the blogger stops blogging I don't want to follow someone with either no content or no interesting content. Is that clear? HOPE SO!(funny I just found out that I can't follow anyone else unless I delete blogs... bummer!)

Question: If you have , or would have a daughter, what book would you want her to read?

Answer: I would have a whole list for her! Hunger Games being the first, the thing is hunger games will never go out of style, ever, because it isn't modern or at a set future. Number two would be how to kill a mockingbird.

Answer:

Funny I was just thinking about this. When I started I just posted them when ever I finished the book then I was like this is crazy I need a system. So I decided once  on Thursday I'll post one review. It doesn't sound like a lot but I'll always have at least one to offer.

This weeks question is do you listen to music when you read?

NO! I can't stand that, I like peace and quiet when I read (something about trying to hear myself think). If you can listen to music when you read I give you props (although I can walk and read, its hard at first because you run into stuff but once you get use to it its kind of fun).
