Follow Friday

 
 
 
Every Friday Parajunkee host Follow Friday, this is your chance to meet new friends and visit old ones. :)

 
Today's question is:
 

Inspired by the inane twitter trend of #100 facts about me, give us five book related silly facts about you.


  1. Sometimes I buy books because the cover is pretty.

  2. I drive my husband crazy because I read everywhere, I have a Digital Ereader that I take everywhere. I read standing in line to pay, at work (shhh! I didn't say that), in my lunch hour, waiting in the driving thru line.

  3. If I get a new book from the library and it's part of the series, once I finish it if the library doesn't have the next book available, i'll download it. I have tons of series that I have one book in paperback, one in hardcover, and the rest in ebook format. I'm a little impatient for the next book if you can't tell :)

  4. I have tons of books sitting on my TBR shelf, I don't have time to read but yet my pile keeps growing because I can't seem to stop buying. It's an addiction I tell you!

  5. I tried my first audio book last week, Beastly and I hated it! Maybe I'll try again when City of Fallen Angels comes out (Sigh, Ed Westwick's accent).

  2. I take my kindle everywhere too! I even take it to my fiance's family dinners (bad of me!) but I don't do girl talk so it keeps me entertained!

  3. I am drawn to books with pretty covers as well! I get more books from the library than I buy, but sometimes I check out too many and find it hard to read them all.

  11. Hopping through. I read everywhere too. Luckily my husband does the same with his e-reader so he can't say much.

  12. Oh no! Sorry to hear you had a bad first start with audiobooks. I've been listening to them for almost 3 years now and so many times books are COMPLETELY RUINED because I can't stand the narration or I can't follow the plotline as well via listening (especially since I listen when commuting in L.A. traffic), or I miss some humor that comes through better on paper. It happens a lot! Make sure you find a narrator you really like and a book that's easy to follow!

  13. Sophia- do you have any suggestions on good narrators/books? I would love to hear them if you do. Maybe I'll try it again since I have an hour drive to and from work. Thx!
