Hello, my lovely bookwyrms! I hope your holiday weekend was great. Because I reached 5,000 followers on bookstagram this month, (yes, holy crud, that is totally insane! I cannot wrap my mind around the fact that over 5,000 people have decided to tap the follow button.) I decided to hold a Q & A session with my bookstagram followers! They asked the questions, and I answered them.
I’ve bolded the questions and my bare-boned answers for the people who like to skim instead of close read. So without further ado…
pagesinparadise: If an author would write a book about your life, who would you choose?
I love this question! Unfortunately, my life happens to be rather boring, so I’d want Sarah J. Maas to write it into something with lots of action and full out epic-ness. And maybe give me a Rhysand of my own? Or Rowan? Dammit, I’d even take Lorcan. Because, you know, brooding Fae warrior males are my favourite. 😉
zoe_hoibian: If you could spend a day with three fictional (book/movie/tv show) characters, who would it be and why?
1). Cath from Heartless. I’d stuff my face with rose macarons and other delectable baked treats.
2). Kaz from Six of Crows. Please teach me some of those lock-picking skills.
3). Sherlock Holmes from Sherlock. I just want to see his reaction to everything. I want need those powers of deductive reasoning! Maybe we’ll even solve a few crimes along the way. Preferably those that don’t involve Kaz.
travel.by.book: What’s your favorite genre?
Historical fiction. It’s such an oxymoron. You’d expect something historical to not be fiction and fiction to not be historical.
alinabooklover: Team Captain or Team Iron Man? Top 5/Top 10 favourite tv shows?
Hey, that’s two questions!! That’s a tough choice, but I think my heart’s with the Captain and my mind’s with Iron Man. As far as TV shows go, here’s a sneaky confession: I don’t watch TV often, BUT Sherlock is my absolute favourite! I also love Downton Abbey. Once Upon a Time is my guilty pleasure. I’ve only watched a few episodes of Outlander, but I like it so far. I have plans to binge-watch Mr. Robot, Poldark, Doctor Who, Grey’s Anatomy, Stranger Things, and House in the near future…
mybookacademy: Who are your top two fictional boyfriends AND hypothetically if you were in a vicious love triangle between them who would you pick??
Girl, you are vicious. I think you and Maas are molded from the same sheet of evil. (just kidding, you know I ❤ you, Sally!) But if you forced me to choose at knifepoint, I’d choose Rhysand from ACOMAF over Kaidan Rowe from Sweet Evil.
mylifeisanovelmylifeisanovel: If you could only read one series for the rest of your life, which series would you choose?
The Infernal Devices by Cassandra Clare. This trilogy is absolutely perfect! You can’t go wrong with a likeable, bookish main character. TID also contains one of the only love triangles that I didn’t have problems with.
bookish.marls: Would you rather read a book about your whole life or read a book about all conversations that had been said about you?
Conversations. I’ll feel like I’m reading minds. My life is (sadly) quite uneventful.
readingisinevitable: What/who inspired you to start bookstagramming? How do you find inspiration for your pictures? What’s your favorite less-known book or series?
Xan from twirlingpages! Interestingly enough, we have mutual friends, though Xan and I have never met in real life. I find inspiration all around me. There’s so much raw beauty in nature and created beauty in music. And of course, I take into account of the book’s content and cover (especially the colour) whenever I take a photo. My favourite lesser-known series is Wendy Higgins’ Sweet Evil trilogy, featuring angels and demons and my favourite British drummer/badass!
sentrancedbookworm: If you had to change one thing about one of your favorite books, what would it be?
Nothing. If it’s my favourite book, there’s no way I’d want to tamper with anything. Although preventing a character I love from dying would be good for my bruised heart…
scarlingwolf719: Who are your top three book character crushes?!?!
You’re making me choose?!?! Fine.
1). Rhysand from A Court of Mist and Fury
2). Kaidan Rowe from Sweet Evil
3). Adrian Ivashkov from Bloodlines
fictionalpassion: Popular character you don’t really like?
Alina Starkov from the Grisha trilogy. Sadly, she’s the reason why I didn’t enjoy the Grisha trilogy as much as everyone else seemed to.
libraryamongstars: Who’s your favourite Disney princess?
Ariel! #mermaidsforlife
bookhuggerreviews: If you could meet a fictional character and hang out with them, who would you choose?
Manon’s wildflower-loving wyvern, Abraxos. (from Queen of Shadows) I’d spoil him sick with wildflowers, and then bribe him with honey to take me flying through the skies. Or maybe he won’t need bribing.
I hope you enjoyed reading this as much as I did writing it! I honestly loved answering all of your questions. Some of them took a loooong time to reflect on. (hello, multiple book crushes) If you have more questions, feel free to ask, and if not, I will see you in my next post.
