Tag it Thursdays: I occasionally get tagged by fellow bloggers to complete various tags. Once a month I will post my response. Please, feel free to tag yourself if any of these tags interest you!
This month’s tag:
Would you rather Tag
While browsing the blogs I follow, I came across Marie @ Drizzle and Hurricane Books‘ Would You Rather Tag post where she tagged anyone who wants to do this tag. It seemed like a lot of fun so I wasn’t going to pass up the opportunity–so thanks Marie!
Would you rather only read trilogies or only read standalones?
I think my blog’s name speaks for itself: I enjoy book series so trilogies is the obvious answer. However, I don’t think every book series that comes out needs to be a trilogy…but I digress.
The simple answer: trilogies, there’s just more to love and I enjoy the longer journey.
Would you rather only read male or female authors?
You know, I don’t really look at the sex of an author when I pick up a book. I guess I read more female authors because I really enjoy romances and that is a market dominated primarily by female authors.
Would you rather shop at Barnes and Noble [Kobo] or Amazon?
We don’t have Barnes and Nobles in Canada so I’m making this a Kobo vs Amazon question. I’m a Kobo girl all the way! I love my Kobo Aura eReader (read my guide to buying an eReader)! Though I am debating whether or not to buy a Kindle with my Swagbuck’s gift cards for all my free books…I think I have a reading addiction :O
(Note: I actually wrote this month’s before I published it! I actually have purchased a Kindle for reading.)
Would you rather books were made into TV shows or movies?
For series with lots of characters or books and a very dramatic plot line that isn’t self-limiting: TV series.
ex. The Mortal Instruments, The Selection, Rosemary Beach, Gallagher Girls
For standalones or trilogies that have definite conclusions: movies. But no breaking up the third book into two parts please, that just ruins everything!
ex. Snow Like Ashes, A Thousand Pieces of You, All the Rage, The Infernal Devices
Would you rather read only 5 pages per day or 5 books per week?
Why is this a serious question? 5 per week!
Would you rather be a professional author or reviewer?
I would love to write for a living but I don’t think I have a real talent for it–though I’ve been experimenting this summer! So for now, a reviewer! I really enjoy writing my reviews, talking to others about books and debating with my fellow bloggers.
Would you rather be a librarian or a bookseller?
A librarian! I’ve always had really positive experiences going to the library as a kid; whether it was the public or school library. I love the helping role librarian’s play in reading and life. Plus, I really enjoy organizing things!
Would you rather read only your favorite genre, or every other genre but your favorite?
I like a variety of genres and within my books so I guess every other but my favourite? If I had to choose my favourite genre, it’s New Adult Romance but romance is in most other genres so I wouldn’t miss out on that.
Would you rather only read ebooks or physical books?
I actually much prefer eReading nowadays. It’s just much more convenient for me as a student who is back and forth between towns/cities/home/class/work. Plus, my small hands have a much easier time holding an eReader vs a real book. You can read more about my eReading experience here or join in a discussion about eBooks vs Physical books!
My addition (to make it an even 10): Would you rather read a love at first sight romance or an intense love triangle romance?
Gah! I detest both of these options! I’m going to go with love at first sight because most of the time they are really just lust at first sight situation and the relationship will hopefully develop as the story progresses.
Thanks for reading! Please feel free to tag yourselves!
What would you rather pick?
Happy Holidays!
Yaaay, I’m so glad you decided to do this tag! I loved reading your answers, and such great choices for the tv shows/movies question. I would love to see A Thousand Pieces of You as a movie!
A movie of ATPOY would be fantastic! I would just love to see all the worlds brought to life!
