The 20 Book Questions Game // #awesomebloggeraward


So I got tagged by Ariel at Scribes and Archers....before Camp NaNo.  And so I just kinda put this on the backburner...and anyway, yeah, finally got around to this one.  But it's cool.

Rules:
Thank the person who nominated you.

Tag your post with #awesomebloggeraward.

Answer the questions you were asked.

Nominate at least 5 bloggers and inform them of their nominations.

Give them 10 new questions to answer.

What’s your favorite book by your favorite author?

I hate this question soooooooo much.  It's like someone asking what your favorite child is or something.  So I'm kinda gonna just...

The Return of the King by J.R.R. Tolkien.

I love endings so much.  And really, it's such a beautiful bittersweet ending to an amazing trilogy.

What’s a book you couldn’t finish?

I usually finish every book I start.  Though last year I almost gave up on Promise's Prayer.  It was just...I didn't love the writing style at all and just found it a little boring, honestly.  But I pushed through.

Do you have any books you associate with songs, or vice versa?

Weeeeell.
I think of I See Fire whenever someone mentions the Hobbit. #thissongismyjam

What new release are you most excited for this year?

My brain suddenly died.  Right after it went AVENGERS: ENDGAME
(You didn't specify book so we're just gonna count that as a legal answer.)

What was the last book someone recommended to you?

*stares at massive TBR*

Honestly, I have no idea.

Buy or borrow?

Buy.  GIMMIE ALL THE BOOKS

E-book or audiobook?

E-book.  It's like being able to carry an entire library in my purse.  Plus, I read faster than an audio reader.

Paperback or hardback?

Paperback.  I have a bad habit of destroying books, and I don't feel so guilty about ripping hardback covers.  Plus, they're heavier, and when I carry multiple books in my purse, the less weight the better.

What’s your favorite book-to-movie adaptation?

The Black Stallion/The Black Stallion Returns

Apparently I was 3 years old when I watched The Black Stallion, and since then I've had a thing for galloping, bareback, and black horses.

What book-to-movie adaptation could you rant about for hours?

Hehehe The Hobbit.  The good bits, the bad bits....there's a lot of material to cover.  Especially since it's three movies and one book...

The Questions
A book you've had for a long time but still haven't read.

A book you read right after buying it.

A book you regret buying.

A series that you wish you'd bought the entirety of while you were at the store but instead you just got the first one and now you have to wait to get the others.

A book you wish they'd make into a movie.

A book you'd love to step into and never return.

A book you convinced your siblings to read and they thought they wouldn't like it but they actually did.

Computer or notebook for writing down story ideas/notes?

If you could have extra time to write some fanfiction for fun, what story would you delve into?  Would you add new characters or just use the original ones?

A book you can't wait to read.

Bonus Question: Have you seen Spiderman: Into the Spiderverse?  If so, thoughts?  (I happened to be listening to it as I type this post, so...yeah.  But anyway, go forth and have fun!)

    1. I don't tear them on purpose, it just...happens...a lot. I'm pretty clumsy and tend to just stuff books in places and next thing I know the cover is ripped.

  7. "Part of the journey is the end" - Tony Stark.
    DID SOMEBODY SAY ENDGAME????? I could literally talk about it ALL DAY LONG, seriously, it was a good movie. So great, so sad, and so full of great storytelling tips. ACK! now I want to watch it again!
    See, this is why you can't bring up Marvel or Endgame around me.
    (I'll be quiet now though)
