I was tagged by bookishwanderlust to do the Leibster Award last week (rules and other stuff below all my answers), and I’m just now getting around to it. Thank you so much for tagging me! These were really fun to answer 🙂

1. How many books are you planning to read in 2016?
I totally overestimated in 2015, so I’m planning to lowball 2016 (shhh). I haven’t actually decided yet. Maybe around 100?
—
2. Favorite book you’ve read this 2015.
Oh, so many. But probably the top of the list is Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. I just loved it SO much. If you haven’t read it yet, READ IT NOW.
—
3. Books you’re ashamed you haven’t read?
Probably a lot of the classics. Actually, Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen. (See, told you it’d be a classic).
—
4. Book that made you cry?
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. You know when.
—
5. What book got you into reading?
I can’t remember a time when I didn’t love reading. As soon as I learned to read, I loved it. I’ve always enjoyed it, but the first series I remember totally fangirling over whas Nancy Drew. Totally wanted to be her.
—
6. What is your all time favorite book?
Can’t pick just one, are you kidding?! How about Jane Austen, JK Rowling and Tolkein. And we can call it a day.
—
7. What are your hobbies?
If I say reading, is this a cop out? (I keep answering your questions with questions, and that’s probably a cop out). I also enjoy movies/Netflix/TV, hanging out with friends, food/snacks, photography, ceramics, and exploring (flea markets, the outdoors and other places TBD).

8. Book that you hate but everybody loves.
Never was a big fan of The Mortal Instruments series, but I loved The Infernal Devices. So I was a big fan of the world, I guess. I don’t know if it was Clary that annoyed me? I’m going to give the new Shadowhunters TV show a shot, so we’ll see how that goes…
—
9. Who is your ultimate fictional book boyfriend?
Gilbert Blythe. (Husband: Mr. Darcy)
—
10. Fictional character that you could totally relate to.
Lizzy Bennet (sorry, not really tho)
—
11. Favorite bromance?
I never know what to do with this question. Is it about the friendship? I’m going to answer based on my favorite friendship: Harry & Ron, or maybe James & Sirius if I knew more about their friendship.
