Someone recently asked me about doing a 15 Day Blogger Challenge. During this challenge I will be answering questions set up for me. Hopefully this will accomplish two things. I hope it will help you get to know me a little better, and I also hope it will help me be a little more consistent with blog entries.
So, here we are on Day 1.
Make 15 Book Related Confessions
1. I love the way a new book smells.
2. I am a book hoarder.
3. I can never have too many books.
4. Books are a girl's best friend.
5. I don't usually read books more than once. Why would I when there's so many more to choose from?
6. I am never without a book nearby. Reading is the best activity to do while waiting in line or waiting for kids.
7. More often than not, I read 2-3 books at a time.
8. I started writing book reviews just so I could get more books.
9. Reading a book while soaking up the sun is my summer guilty pleasure - even if I have work to do.
10. I don't like every book I read. Some I hate.
11. I find mistakes in many (if not all) of the books I read.
12. I have books in my library that I've owned since I was a very small child. (The hoarding started young apparently.)
13. It's extremely hard to pick a favorite book. My favorite might change with the next book I read.
14. I much prefer print books over digital copies. There's no paper to smell with a digital book.
15. I get excited every time a new book comes in the mail.
How about you? Do you have a book confession? Leave it in the comments.
Come back tomorrow for the answer to another question.

The Boxcar Kids was the first book I ever read cover to cover. Elementary school, but I remember the story vividly!
ReplyDeleteI know technology can be a wondrous thing, but there is nothing like a true book...musty pages, a dog-eared corner to save your place!
I agree about the books, Dana. There is no substitute!
ReplyDeleteI am addicted to books like some people are to drugs or alcohol. When challenged by my oldest sister to go without my books for 2 months, I stopped cold turkey and managed to go 3 months. One day I found myself reading my daughter's early reader books and gave up. Now I am back to my old habits. At least they are good for me, in moderation anyway.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't even agree to that! Why would you want to? What a mean sister Janet is!!! Just kidding. I couldn't go a whole month (or even a whole day probably) without reading.
