Sisterhood of the World Bloggers Award W/ My Mom!!
Ahoy!
The wonderful Carrie (TheBookGoddess) nominated me for the Sisterhood of the World Bloggers Award which if I am correct, is an award for female bloggers?!
I have been waiting so long for someone to nominate me and aaaah, thanks Carrie!
The Rules:
- Thank the blogger who nominated you
- Put the logo on your blog post
- Answer the questions sent to you
- Make up ten new questions (perhaps this time I WILL remember to do that)
- Nominated between 5 & 10 other bloggers who you think are deserving and eligible!
- Link back to your post on theirs!
1. Which is your favourite place to read?
I basically read anywhere I go! I guess I'll have to say the sofa and because I spend so much time reading there, on the bus (even with the funny looks I get!)
Mom: The Lounge
2. What type of characters are you more inclined to like?
Most protagonistic un-human characters I like and characters who aren't neccersarily strong or dependent but ones who dare to think what others won't or have opinions that nobody else has!
Mom: A heroine
3. If you wrote a novel, what would it be called?
Well, I'm currently writing one (not even considering publishing, just a bit of fun) and the working title 12 Things We Have in Common, but as I don't feel like I'm in a place to start the publishing process, I have no idea.
Mom: I don't know, I've never considered writing a novel. I much prefer being the reader of books than the writer.
4. Which book or book series would you like to see adapted into a graphic novel?
Rebecca - Daphne du Maurier (It would be interesting to see!)
Mom: I don't know.
5. Do you prefer eBooks or printed books?
Printed.
Mom: Printed.
6. Which book would you like to see as a movie?
Throne of Glass - Sarah J. Maas
Mom: Can't think of one. I always prefer the books anyway!
7. Who are your favourite authors?
J.K Rowling, Michael Morpurgo, Louise Rennison
Mom: Dan Brown
8. Vampire or Werewolves?
Neither really, I'm not really big on fantasy etc... I much prefer 'real-life'
Mom: Neither.
8. (Two question 8's?) How many books do you own?
Erm, too many?
Mom: Far too many.
9. Do you love a book that everyone else hates?
Twilight
Mom: I don't think so
That's a wrap for my nomination! The questions for my nominees are:
- Do you read poetry?
- Favourite ink colour?
- If you could blog about something different to what you do blog about, what topic would it be?
- Is there a book that you hate and everyone else seems to love?

- Favourite quote?
- Do you have any bad reading habits?
- Where do you primarily obtain your books from?
- Do you wish you would read more classics?

Thanks for nominating me! I did this a really long time ago, but of course I'll do it again! Love the questions you've given us! :)
ReplyDeleteOops! I hadn't realised you'd already done it! But thank-you to you too!
DeleteThank you so much for nominating me!
ReplyDeleteI loved reading your answers, and I really admire the fact that you're actually writing a novel! I tried to do that once... It didn't work... I could be writing the third chapter already and then, I suddenly came up with a different idea and had to change it all over...
And, between Vampires and Werewolves, I would definitely choose Werewolves. I mean, Lupin was one of my favorite Hogwarts' teachers!
The Journeys of a Girl
Thank you! I can't believe I forgot about Professor Lupin because then I would definitely have said werewolves! Thanks for reminding me.
DeleteI too am a famous starter of novels but never finisher of them. Sometimes I just don't believe in the story enough, I become lazy or it just doesn't go the way I was planning for it to go!
Great answers ! I really enjoyed seeing your mums and yours compared :) I really liked the quote at the end as well, it really sticks with me at the minute I think it's become my new favourite :)
ReplyDeletelots of love, Marianne xxx

Thanks. I loved this quote too when I first saw it in the Tale of Despereaux by Kate di Camillo!
DeleteReally lovely post, and glad you got nominated. Truly awese. Always take care.
ReplyDeleteThank you, and you!
DeleteNo problem :)
DeleteGreat answers! I love that you did this post with your mum <3
ReplyDeleteThank-you, Carrie!
