First of all I would like to thank Merv, of Merv Reads for nominating me and tagging me. It was a really lovely surprise! Please do click the link to see her One Lovely Blogger Award post!
Most of the facts coming up will be book-related. Coming up with seven interesting and random facts about me is kind of difficult, so I have set out to combine the two!
Rules
- Thank the person who nominated you for the award;
- Share seven facts about yourself;
- Nominate 15 other bloggers and inform them.
Seven Facts About Me
- Long books freak me out. As someone who loves reading, this is kind of ironic, but whenever I think about reading a really long book I worry about how long it would take me to read it, so I don’t often go over 400-450 pages.
- The only fantasy I read is Harry Potter. I am a total Harry Potter fanatic, but I have never really been able to engage with any other fantasy books, such as Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire). I just don’t find those as interesting or as (pardon the pun) magical.
- I hardly read books by male authors. Thinking about it, the only male author I read often is John Green. I guess I just like the writing styles of female authors better, or maybe they seem to do more psychological/domestic thrillers, which are my favourite genre.
- I obsess over bookish quotes. Every time I see any kind of tweet, picture or gif about books which contains a quote, I can’t get enough of it.
- I like writing poetry. I don’t always get the time to do it often, but what I love about poetry is that it is flexible and allows me to be creative with words. I have also written some especially for this blog.
- Me and my brother are reading opposites. I love reading. He hates reading. I read most of the time. He never reads. How does that work? Well, at least I get all the books to myself ;-)
- I like to take part in quizzes. I am kind of obsessed by facts, and so take part in a lot of general knowledge quizzes. I can be quite competitive!
