Feature & Follow Friday [6]


This week's weekly question: 
If you could teleport into ANY story, which would you choose?


This is a great question, and a tough one! I've read so many fantastic stories that it almost seems difficult to choose. If I had to pick, I think that I would pick the Mediator series by Meg Cabot. That series was one of my favourites and it was one that I have read multiple, multiple times. I just would love to get to have the chance to see what it would be like to talk with people who are no longer with us, and just to get to experience the adventures that Susannah gets to go on. 

If you could pick any one story to teleport into, which do you choose?

This week's weekly question:
What is the first book you remember reading?

When I think back to it, the first book that I can remember reading on my own was Go Dog, Go! I was SO obsessed with this book. I can remember my mother getting really tired of reading this book to me over and over, that she tried her absolute best to try and skip some parts in the book while she was reading it, to get it over with quicker, but I knew exactly what parts she was skipping and then I insisted she finished. I eventually got the point where I was just reading it on my own. Are You my Mother? was a very close second to Go Dog, Go!

This weeks weekly question:
How would you pitch to the biz to make your favourite book into a movie?

I love questions like this but sometimes they're a little tough to answer. One of my favourite series of all-time that I have wanted to see turned into a movie was the Mediator series by Meg Cabot. These are my comfort, and go-to books, I don't even know how many times that I have read them. 

Meg Cabot is already well known as the author of the Princess Diaries, and that's something that I would mention to the produces that this book is by the same author but the stories could not be anymore different (I'm a terrible sales person). I would just end up giving an overview of the series and try to spice it up a bit, and just hope for the best.

How would YOU pitch your favourite book to the biz?

This week's weekly question:How many books have you got on your TBR? 

I'm honestly a little bit nervous to find out how many books are on my TBR. I'd say I'm most definitely pushing close to the 100 mark, if not over it. 

Its beginning to become a problem. I keep seeing new books that I want to read, and the list is just continually growing. I might have to put myself on a book buying ban.

This week's weekly question:How do you write your reviews?

When I first started to write reviews, I kind of used to just wing it. I would have all of these thoughts as I was reading and finishing up the book, but I found that when I would wing it, I tended to forget what it was that I wanted to say about the book. As I started to get back into blogging, I realized that i needed to change up my approach. 

Pen to Paper: 
That's right, I went to writing it out by hand. When I was in university, I used to do this exact same thing when it came to writing out my university papers. The thing that I really like about writing it this way is that when I go to type it up, I can make my revisions, and change up what I don't like, or what I think doesn't sound good the way I had initially written it. This method has been working for me, and I'm hoping to keep it up. 

Note taking: 
I also find it really helpful to write notes, and jot down pages/quotes that I really liked. I'm usually thinking as I'm writing I'm reading, but when it comes to actually writing, I forget about some of the spots of the book that I really liked (or disliked)

This week's weekly question:
How do you organize your books?

This is a really good question! 
For my physical books, I really don't have much organization, for right now at least. I have my adult/new adult grouped together and all of my YA are together. They're sitting inside my dresser right now as I don't have bookshelves big enough to display them. I'm waiting on bookshelves so I can finally display them.

As for eBooks, I organize those a little bit more. I used to use my iPad for reading but I switched back to my Kobo and I'm enjoying it so much more! I organize my books in alphabetical order on there. 

How do your organize your books?
