7 Deadly Sins by BombayShiin on deviantART
Hello everyone!!!
So... a few days ago Aylee @ Recovering Potter Addict tagged me to do this Bookish Tag (created by BookishlyMalyza), so here we go.
Another really expensive book I got is the Aussie edition of The Piper's Son, if I recall correctly that cost me about 24 dollars. Again, no regrets!
As for my most inexpensive book: A two dollar edition of Persuasion, it even has a decent cover which is read with the cheap editions! SO yay! I also used to jump on all sort of bargain price deals in Amazon, so I scored quite a few hardbacks for three or four dollars (like my Most Excellent Year, Fat Cat and The Tea Rose).
2. Wrath - What author do you have a love/hate relationship with? I guess Ally Carter? I don't like a lot of the things and attitudes she has on twitter, and I used to love her Gallagher Girls books a lot but then ending of the series wasn't good and I never liked her Heist Society books. So I don't have any warm fuzzy feelings toward her and I don't see myself reading her books.
I try not to read books by authors I feel antipathy for because I know it will affect the way I feel about the book.
3. Gluttony- What book have you devoured over and over with no shame?
And I try to re-read the Mediator or the 1-800 series every other year as well.
And Harry Potter, of course! And Melina Marchetta's books.
4. Sloth - What book have you neglected reading due to laziness?
5. Pride - What book do you talk about in order to sound like an intellectual reader? I was fortunate to have some really awesome teachers in prep school so I read a lot there (French and Spanish literature mostly), and I mostly had access to the classics growing up so I read that stuff. As such I wound up reading some fancy stuff like Tolstoy or Dostoyevsky, those types of dudes. So I would probably pick one of those if I absolutely had to.
6. What attributes do you find attractive in male and female characters?
Brooding can be sexy I'll admit, but I don't think I could put up with it in the long haul.
In female characters? I like girls who are smart, laugh at themselves and can be vulnerable without being TSTL. I don't mind if they make mistakes as long as the own up to them. I think my favorite type of heroine over all is someone like Suze Simon of the Mediator series or even Alona Dare of the Ghost and the Goth.
7. Envy - Which book would you like to receive as a gift?
And Ouran High Shool Host Club, *happy sigh*
