I'm not usually a big fan of book tags, mainly because I can never find the time to answer questions, search for books and post but I recently saw this tag on Alliee Reads and thought it was a cute way to get to know a little more about each other.
So let's get started...
Rules
- Tag & link the person who tagged you
- Tag and link me/this post
- Tick/cross off the ones you’ve done
- Tag another 10 people!
Here’s the list for you to copy and do yourself!
1.Received an ARC and not reviewed it
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΆπππ½ππ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
I have so many ARC waiting patiently on my shelf I feel guilty every time I walk past them.
2.Have less than 60% feedback rating on Netgalley
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΎπΈπ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
My feedback is surprisingly at 80%. I went crazy for a while on Netgalley and requested loads of titles but I'm committed to getting through them all in 2019.
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΎπΈπ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
Always post promised reviews within a week or two of reading and rating.
4.Folded down the page of a book
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΎπΈπ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
Nooooo!!! Never!!!!
5.Accidentally spilled on a book
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΆπππ½ππ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
Maybe the occasional tea or coffee splatter but not an actual spill unless it's my tears spilling over my favourite character having their heart broken or, god forbid, dying.
6.DNF a book this year
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΎπΈπ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
I can't bring myself to DNF a book even if it's terrible. I'm always hopeful if I read on it will improve.
7.Bought a book purely because it was pretty with no intention of reading it
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΆπππ½ππ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
Yes! Yes! Yes! I love pretty covers and can't resist them.
8.Read whilst you were meant to be doing something else
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΆπππ½ππ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
100% of the time whilst I am reading I should be doing something else.
9.Skim read a book
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΎπΈπ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
I can't skim read. Firstly I wouldn't want to miss something crucial and secondly the author took a long time to write the book, so read whole book!
10.Completely missed your Goodreads goal
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΎπΈπ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
I have a little trick with my Goodreads goal and it's to keep the goal low and then you never miss attaining your goal. And it's not cheating! Is it?
11.Borrowed a book from the Library and not returned it
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΎπΈπ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
I'm not much of a Library user as I like to keep the books and not have a deadline to read them (thus my answer to Question 1)
12.Broke a book buying ban
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΆπππ½ππ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
Haha! What's a book buying ban?
13.Started a review, left it for ages then forgot what the book was about
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΆπππ½ππ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
Only occasionally. I try to write reviews when they are fresh in my mind but sometimes that next read is beckoning and the review gets pushed aside.
14.Wrote in a book you were reading
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΎπΈπ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
I never write in the books but I do use sticky notes if a sentence stands out that I want to remember later.
15.Finished a book and not added it to your Goodreads
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΎπΈπ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
Goodreads is the only way I keep track of what I have read so all books are added as soon as I finish them
16.Borrowed a book and not returned it to a friend
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΎπΈπ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
If I borrow a book I will tell them that they may not get it back for a while but I will always return it....eventually.
17.Dodged someone asking if they can borrow a book
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΆπππ½ππ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
My books will only be lent out to close friends and family. That is unless I'm happy to never have it returned.
18.Broke the spine of someone else’s book
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΎπΈπ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
Never! I always take great care when borrowing someone else's book
19.Took the jacket off a book to protect it and ended up making it more damaged
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΆπππ½ππ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
Taken the jacket off a book and then can't remember the safe place I put it so it wouldn't get damaged.
20.Sat on a book accidentally
✿.。.:* ☆:**:.
π©πΎπΈπ .:**:.☆*.:。.✿
Haha! No, I have books everywhere but I'm pretty sure I've never sat on one.
8/20 π©πΆπππ½ππ
12/20 π©πΎπΈπ
I'm happy to see I'm a little more Nice than Naughty when it comes to my bookish ways.
