All about MEme!!!





Total web-domination has really gone to Supah's head. Following in the footsteps of some other famous lady, this week SupahMommy (with a lot of help from MommyBrain) is launching her very own Book Club!

Tell us about yourself as a reader ... of books.

Imagine you're being interviewed by Oprah Supah ...

You know Oprah Supah asks the tough questions ...

****
The not so exciting answers of a self professed BOOK WORM!

 

What are you currently reading? Catching Fire (book 2 of Hunger Games) by Suzanne Collins (OMG read it!!! Fantastic series!!!)

I will read almost ANYTHING! I do not do non-fiction though... well occasionally.

Mommy Lit: LOVE it
Chic Lit: LOVE it
Trashy Jackie Collins: LOVE it
Suspense/ Murder/ Myster: LOVE LOVE and LOVE it!
Young Adult: OMG my new and current obsession



When do you find the time to read? Whenever I can which is not as often as I like! A book comes with me where ever I go, so if there is a minute to read I do it!


Where do you do most of your reading? in the car, in the tub, and I have been know to "hide" in the locked bathroom claiming explosive stomach ailments when I just need to finish one more chapter!


How do you choose what you read? browsing shelves, catchy covers ALWAYS make me peek, friends recs, and some authors I just ALWAYS read!


From where do you get most of your books? used to be from Barnes and Noble, but now as a proud Kindle owner, they are coming from Amazon! I also love when friends pass good ones my way!

What do you do with a book after you've finished reading it? I have boxes and boxes of books because none of my friends used to read.... (The only one that did ALWAYS gives me her books)Now more friends read, so I need to make sure to pass them along!


What are your book (reading) quirks? If I am so into a book, I get mad or sad when it ends. For real. Its like going through withdrawals! It makes me feel like I lost a friend.... lol I have intense feelings for books and the characters. I either love them or loathe them...

I've locked myself in the bathroom before too! I totally am with you when it comes to the end of a book. I do the exact same thing. If you haven't read the Plum Series by Janet Evanovich it's a must. Seriously Soo funny! I laugh out loud when reading them!

I hate getting to the end of a book and crying or getting mad because I was so into it. And if a series book and you have to wait for the next one - that drives me nuts!

I too have locked myself in the bathroom with a book. I occasionally make retching sounds so that no one bothers me.

I know exactly what you mean about losing a friend when a book is over. I miss book characters like they are real people. I'm just so glad that Harry's life turned out so well....*sob*

I'm so tempted by the idea of a kindle, though I rarely buy books, so I'll just stick with the library for now.

I have a hard time finding time to read now that I am blogging. I am in the middle of a good book but just started a new one which is so unlike me. I like to read one at a time from beginning to end!

I get super attached too! I was so pissed at my husband when he didn't tell me about part of Lord of the Rings! I cried and then felt like an idiot later!

MommyBrain said...

Your quirks sound just like me ... I always feel a little "out-of-sorts" when I finish a really good book ... like I lost a friend or something!

I am so envious of your Kindle!

I get mad when I book ends too, like I want to start reading it again just to get lost in it.

Ohhhhhhhhh this meme looks so fun! I'm usually doing friend makin' Mondays today but since I have no projects on the go I think I'll do this one instead since I love love love to read!

I can relate to many of your answers!

Oh how I wish I had more time to read! I need to make more time. I don't know what to do with myself at the end of a book either. It's like, "um, excuse me, what next?"

I love to read... don't much now cause I read non-stop till I am done & that does not fit well into my families schedule.
