Yes I did get an arc and not review and worse it was for a book tour! Instead I made a post with the book excerpt but I did not read or review it because it was the last book in a series I never read. 🤦🏻♀️ At least I made the blog tour post though… – NAUGHTY.
2. Have less than 60% feedback rating on Netgalley
No – I do have more than 60% on Netgalley so I’m proud to say I stayed on top of all my arcs this year! I’m at 93%! NICE.
3. Rated a book on Goodreads and promised a full review was to come on your blog (and never did).
Hmmm…I’m trying to remember if I did this? But I’m going to say…no? NICE.
4. Folded down the page of a book
I mostly read ebooks so this would be a no. NICE.
5. Accidentally spilled on a book
I’ve accidentally gotten a drop of water on a book yes, especially if I’m setting it down on the dining table. Or if there is a water ring my kids left on the table because they didn’t use a coaster. NAUGHTY.
6. DNF a book this year
YES. And I’m not ashamed of it lol…there have only a few books that just didn’t keep my attention so I gave up instead of wasted my time. NAUGHTY.
7. Bought a book purely because it was pretty with no intention of reading it
There is always the intention to read it, I think. Even if I never get to it. So no. NICE.
8. Read whilst you were meant to be doing something else (like homework)
Always lol…sometimes I read when I know I’m supposed to be doing blog posts! NAUGHTY.
9. Skim read a book
Yes I do if it’s a book I”m in the middle of and it’s losing my attention and I’ve given myself days to try and get back into the back. I skim so I can get to the end of it! NAUGHTY.
10. Completely missed your Goodreads goal
I haven’t missed my goal yet! More like I set my goal low so I can always meet it, so it’s not really a challenge but also I don’t want to set a high number and burn myself out from reading. NICE.
11. Borrowed a book and not returned it
Never! oh the horror! I don’t want to pay late fees to the library. And I don’t borrow books from friends and family because none of them read the books I like to read! NICE.
12. Broke a book buying ban
Yes, unfortunately I did break my book buying ban multiple times. It’s hard to keep it and I keep a book buying ban every year. NAUGHTY.
13. Started a review, left it for ages then forgot what the book was about
Yes I do this. I won’t leave it for ages, but if I don’t write the review within a week of reading the book and I’m already reading another book then I will forget details from the first book. So I try to write the review asap but sometimes I don’t get to it. NAUGHTY.
14. Wrote in a book you were reading
Nope, I can’t do it. NICE.
15. Finished a book and not added it to your Goodreads
All the time! It’s hard to remember to add it to Goodreads when I dont’ religiously use Goodreads. Sometimes at the end of the year I have to go through my blog and double check Goodreads to see if I added it on there. So at least having a blog helps with that! NAUGHTY.
So that’s 8 NAUGTHY and 7 NICE = wow I was naughty this year…
All you can do is your best right? Haha…Merry Christmas!
It’s that time again, time for some Halloween themed posts and why not with book tags? This tag was originally created by The Bookish Porcupine but I saw it around the blogosphere – most recently on Dinipandareads. Check their blogs out!
Creepy house on the corner of the street: Book with a creepy cover
Lights out (party poopers): A book you want to read when you want to escape
I like escaping into fantasy books and Throne of the Fallen takes you to Hell, a Vampire stronghold and Faerie!
The house that gives out the cheap candy: Guilty pleasure book
I like a good strange small town, spooky story! I don’t know if that’s a guilty pleasure but sometimes I just liked to be weirdly spooked. I think Together We Rot fascinated me because stories about cults always have interested me!
The house with the best decorations on the block: Best haunting/Halloween-themed cover
I haven’t read Delicious Monstersbut I want to – but yikes look at that cover!
The house that gives out the best candy: #1 Halloween recommendation
If you like a little history with a haunted house then you’d enjoy The Hacienda!
SPEED ROUND
Corn Maze or Haunted House?
I used like Haunted Houses but that was in my younger years! I’d go with a corn maze now.
Classic or Unique Costume?
I love both but I’ll go with Unique because my kids are always picking unique costumes. This year my daughter will be Sailor Moon and I’m Luna (the cat) lol.
Sexy or Scary Costume?
Scary because I can’t pull off a sexy one lol
Comedy or Horror Halloween Film?
I was forced to watch horror films all during my childhood because my older male cousins picked the movies! So now I go for comedy.
Chocolate or Sour Candy?
Definitely chocolate!
It’s a fun and easy tag to do so try it out. ☺️ Happy Halloween! 👻🎃
