Life of a Random

Hooray for long lists of questions! Here's the second half of the Quirky Questions for Readers. Read, laugh, and answer the questions along with me if you feel like it (either in the comments or on a post). Have a beautiful day with much chocolate and books. :D 29. Name a case in which hype ruined your reading experience:  Well, I haven't read Allegiant yet but that's because 1) it's never in at the library and 2) exactly because the hype for the Divergent series made it extremely easy to find spoilers everywhere. Particularly ONE SPOILER. So..yeah. *sigh* Also (don't hate me), I discovered Daughter of Smoke & Bone because of the hype, but I feel like it gave me really high expectations of the book. Soo I was disappointed when it didn't meet those expectations. 30. How often do you agree with the critics about about a book? Psh, critics? I'm a rebel. I'm not about that life. *tosses hair* 31. How do you feel about giving bad/negative rev...

I discovered this questionnaire at Cait and Mime's blog The Notebook Sisters , where I learned that the origin of these questions is most likely here . Thanks for bringing this awesomesauce questionnaire to my attention, Notebook Sisters! You guys need to check out their post . It's hilarious. I'm going to follow their lead because fifty-five questions is WAY too many to post at one time. So here's the first half... *drumroll* 1. Favourite childhood book: Unfortunately, I don't remember childhood reading too well. :/ But probably, all the horse books by Marguerite Henry and the American Girl books, especially the Kit Kittredge ones. :)  2. What are you reading right now? I'm in between books! So nothing right now. Even though I have a Mount Everest of books waiting to be read. 3. What books do you have on request at the library? Rebel Belle by Rachel Hawkins and Splintered by A.G. Howard. I've heard they're good. ;) 4. Bad book habi...

This is a post where I will be de-mything the oh-so-mysterious bookworms who live everywhere only some people don't know that because of the cloud of bookworm cliches floating around the world. (I'm practicing my metaphors, okay? Gosh.) Note: This is meant to be exaggerated a little bit for comedic relief, that is-- "hilarious." Because I like being hilarious. On the other hand, these cliches do make an appearance and are meant that way, that is "seriously", as well. 1. Not every bookworm wears glasses. I know this may come as a shock but we don't all wear glasses. I know, I know. You have been lied to. Poor baby. It turns out that some of us wear glasses, some of us wear contacts, and some of us don't need things like that because we have 20-20 vision. *snaps fingers in Z-formation* I'm sorry you had to learn it this way...will chocolate help? (Chocolate helps with everything) You should probably get used to it though because I've h...
