THREE THINGS ABOUT MYSELF

• I love wine! I only drink sweet wines though! Dry wine is just gross.
• I love cats but will never be able to own one again. Unfortunately my boyfriend is allergic.
• I really love owls! My apartment has random owl knick knacks all over.

FERNANDA’S QUESTIONS

• Why and how did you decide on your blog name?
  • Why? Because I clearly am a book nerd haha. How? I randomly came up with the phrase one day and placed it in my Goodreads bio and it just stuck. So when I decided to make a book blog, I thought the phrase fit well with my personality and it would also let other bloggers know that my blog was going to be focused on books.
• If your life were turned into a movie or book, what would the title be?
  • Oh goodness, I don’t know. I’m not a very creative person and my life is also quite boring. Hmm..yeah, I’ve got nothing guys.
• What’s your favorite genre to read?
  • Honestly, it depends on the time of year. In winter, I really like fantasy books. In fall, I definitely go with horror and thrillers.
• What’s a hobby of yours?
  • Kayaking when it is warm enough!
• If you could go anywhere, where would you go?
  • In the real world, all over Europe! In a fictional world, Hogwarts!

MEG’S QUESTIONS

• When did you start blogging? What made you want to start?
  • I started my blog June 27, 2017. Not quite 3 months yet. I started because I really needed to do something with my life other than just working and going home to wake up and go back to work. I needed to do something creative that I would enjoy doing as an outlet for pent-up energy.
• If you could have one song as your theme tune that played around you at all times, what would it be and why?
  • Bad Blood by Taylor Swift. I’ve had some people in my past backstab me in ways I could never fathom doing to others, so maybe if I had this theme song people would realize I’m not one to mess with. Sorry, that got a little dark.
• Who is your biggest inspiration?
  • My mama.
• Where is your dream place to live? Why?
  • Ultimately, I would love to live in the Caribbean. The islands that I have been to have just been so beautiful. The sights take my breath away. I also really love the tropical weather, minus the hurricanes. I’ll probably never leave the U.S., but one can dream, right?
• What is one book you would recommend that everyone should read?
  • The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon

ROSE’S QUESTIONS

• What is your favorite trilogy of all time?
  • I have two trilogies that come to mind. The Infernal Devices by Cassandra Clare and His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman. I cannot choose between the two.
• What is your most loved trope and most hated?
  • Most loved: Probably the “chosen one”
  • Most hated: Insta-love
• Favorite book boyfriend?
  • Jem Carstairs always and forever. He’s my baby.
• What is your favorite beverage?
  • Non-alcoholic: Pepsi
  • Alcoholic: Wine, specifically Niagara.
• If you were immortal for a day, what would you do?
  • I would like to say I would go sky diving.

MY QUESTIONS

I’m going to steal a few questions from above. I hope that’s okay. I just thought some of the questions I asked were really good!

NOMINEES

Okay y’all, I’m not nominating a bunch of people because most people I know have either done this award post already or have been tagged already. I hope that’s okay.
