Rapid Fire Book Tag

Thanks for tagging me, Hannah! Sorry I’m a bit late in responding to this; I wrote it out and saved it as a draft and just realized I didn’t publish it. Oops. XD This was so fun to do! 😀

• Ebooks or Physical Books?
  • Physical books! Nothing like holding the book in my hands, flipping pages, and if the book is old, there is that lovely smell!
• Paperbacks or Hardbacks?
  • Hardbacks! They are not flimsy when I pick them up and they are harder to damage, and I’ve been known to drop and dent books before…
• Online or In-Store Book Shopping?
  • In store, if they have it. I’ve found that many times, the stores don’t have them, so I go to eBay if that happens. XD
• Trilogies or Series?
  • Hmm… I really love series. But trilogies are great too! Uh… series!
• Heroes or Villains?
  • Heroes! 😀
• A Book You Want Everyone to Read?
  • The Bible!
• Recommend an Underrated Book
  • The White Witch by Janet Grube. I don’t understand why so many people on Goodreads rated it one star. It was one of my favorites. (It was about the plague in the 1600’s and a girl who was accused of being a witch. It was a great historical fiction novel. I’ve read it several times.)
• The Last Book I Finished
  • Black by Ted Dekker. It was so good.
• Weirdest Thing You Have Used as a Bookmark?
  • After ripping open the Kleenex box, I stuck the cardboard remains in a book. Does that count? XD Also, when someone gave me a book, I kept the little gift tag and used it as a bookmark. Oh, and there was the time I used a Goodwill receipt – but I was on the way home in the car and had no bookmark, so it was either wait to read or that. 😂
• Used Books, Yes or No?
  • YES! YESYESYESYES – **ahem**
• Top Three Favorite Genres?
  • Only three?! Uh… Christian, Historical, and Fantasy.
• Borrow or Buy?
  • I usually buy, because we don’t go by where the library is often.
• Characters or Plot?
  • Tough one! Plot, I guess? There have been times I didn’t like the character but the plot was good, so I kept going, but if the plot isn’t good, I’m not sure if a good character or setting would be enough to redeem it.
• Long or Short Books?
  • Long! It takes a while to finish, but it’s worth it!
• Long or Short Chapters?
  • Medium! #rebel Actually, short. Long is good too, but… short makes it easier to find a stopping place, haha. Or, long chapters divided into several parts like Winds of Promise (by Thoene) seems to do sometimes.
• Name the First Three Books You Think Of
  • Switch by Ingrid Law, Seeing and Savoring Jesus Christ by John Piper and Evidence Not Seen by Darlene Deibler Rose.
• Books That Make You Laugh or Cry
  • Savvy by Ingrid Law made me laugh several times – it was great. The last book of Narnia almost made me cry. It was that good.
• Our World or Fictional Worlds?
  • ACK. That’s hard. XD I love both, really, but I appreciate fictional worlds so much. Especially so after many attempts at creating some that failed miserably.
• Audiobooks, Yes or No?
  • I’ve never tried an audio book, so I’m not sure.
• Do You Ever Judge a Book By Its Cover?
  • …yes I have. I try not to, but it has happened, haha.
• Book to Movie or Book to TV Adaptations?
  • Yikes, that is hard too! Um… perhaps book to movie, because it seems like most of the time, they stick closer to the book.
• Series or Standalones?
  • I CAN’T DO IT. 😂 Both are really great, but I do like that standalones end, while many series keep on going. However, I love so many series. I guess I’ll go with series. XD
