Lori’s Questions

Have you discovered a book through the book community?

YES, YES AND YES! Nearly half of my tbr comes from recommendations of bloggers I read, books that are hyped on bookstagram or whatever novels are anticipated in general. The most recent book I read that I discovered due to the book community is Sorcery of Thorns. I love reading books that I find through bloggers I love. There is nothing better than fangirling over a book I loved, ranting about I book that frustrated me and just sharing my opinions with other bloggers!

What book brings a lot of nostalgia?

The first book or series that comes to mind is Percy Jackson. I initially read these and fell in love with them when I was either 8 or 9, I cannot quite remember. But another series is definitely all the Jacqueline Wilson books(specifically Candyfloss, as it’s the first one I ever read) or even My Sister The Vampire books(although I read these in french).

Candyfloss (novel) - Wikipedia
The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan

Is there a book you want to see being adapted?

The Folk of the Air is a series that I can truly see being adapted into a film(or multiple films). Even thinking about it makes me excited!!! SOMEONE TURN THIS SERIES INTO A MOVIE!!!!

What book disappointed you this year?

Unfortunately, it’s hard to choose just one. If I had to pick one that I was MOST disappointed by, it would be a three-way tie between Little Fires Everywhere, American Royals and The Kiss Quotient.

Has reading made you want to write and be an author?

I have always loved writing. I am actually working on my first novel right now! I have always written short stories, but reading has unquestionably exposed me to various writing styles and helped me discover unique ways to express myself.

What book would have been better without a sequel?

Oohhhh, I’m not really sure about this one, because I know that Truly Devious was written to be apart of a trilogy. But the second and third novels did not entertain me AT ALL. It seemed as if these books weren’t even written by the same author as the first book.

What’s a book you’ve been meaning to read for a long time, but haven’t yet?

SO MANY BOOKS! I might as well just make a little list here(this is more of a reminder telling myself to stop being lazy and READ).

  • Red, White and Royal Blue(yes I KNOW I KNOW, I just haven’t gotten my hands on a copy yet….)
  • Ninth House(ummmmmm I’ve been meaning to read this since October whoopsss)
  • The Starless Sea
  • Serpent and Dove
  • Mexican Gothic
  • The Poppy War
  • Daisy Jones & The Six
  • The Henna Wars

I tag :

    Thank you so much for the tag Erin 💙💜💛💚🧡❤️💖 I am in such agreement with you about the kiss quotient and American royals. I was very underwhelmed by both. I read another Celeste Ng novel to the one you referenced, Everything I Never Told You? Or you never told me? I can never remember which way it is oops! But that’s another book that I felt was overhyped and I was disappointed with. It’s why I haven’t read Little Fires Everywhere. Loved reading your answers and thank you again for the nom 💙💚💜❤️🧡💛💖

  8. Ah LOVED reading all of your answers!! YESSSS, Folk of The Air I WANT THAT ADAPTATION!! It’d be brilliant. And PJO. Can’t wait for that adaptation. I’ve been so excited to reread that series lately, and your post is just another sign hehe. Also, haven’t read any of the ones you mentioned but I’m sorry about the disappointment. I’ve been eyeing American Royals and maybe The Kiss Quotient 😦

    YAY FOR WRITING though!! I actually need to get back to my draft. I started writing it earlier this year but haven’t picked it up in ages. Also a sign haha.

    Also READ RED, WHITE AND ROYAL BLUE!! Be prepared for the gushy feels hehe. And DAISY YESSS!! That one’s a fave. Though I know it’s not for everyone so maybe don’t go in with too high expectations welp. Also same for Serpent & Dove, I found it a whole lot of fun but it’s also lowkey trashy so… I haven’t read The Starless Sea or Ninth House yet either but hope to get to them both soon.
