(no subject)
I've been doing a 30 day book meme on my journal, but I find it a bit repetitive as it keeps asking what the best or favourite is of everything...so I had a look around and had a go at compiling a different 30 day book meme - untested! Let me know what you think. (and it you want to use it please feel free to substitute questions you don't like)
Suggested 30 day book meme
Suggested 30 day book meme
- A fictional character you identify with and why
- Your earliest memory of reading or being read to
- Your favourite book aged 9 ½, or 13 ¾, whichever you remember best.
- The book that’s been on your shelves the longest.
- A book you acquired in some interesting way
- A book with a story for you, that reminds you of something specific in your life (a person, a place, a time).
- What fictional character are you (secretly) in love with
- The last book you acquired, and how (begged, bought, borrowed?)
- Your current read, your last read and the book you’ll read next.
- What author do you own the most books by and why?
- Do you own multiple copies of any book? What are they? Why do you have multiple copies?
- Book borrowing - do you use the library? Do you prefer to try before you buy? What about lending your books to friends? Are you a good borrower, do you remember to return books?
- Do you reread a lot? Why (not)? Name a book you have reread many times.
- What is the best book you’ve read in the past year?
- Do you recommend books to other people? If you could force everyone you know to read one book, what would it be?
- Adaptation: What book would you most like to see made into a film? Do you like to read the book first or see the film? Any books you have read after seeing the film version?
- What is the most difficult book you’ve ever read?
- Your favourite book series & your favourite book out of that series
- Your favourite picture, junior fiction and Young Adult books
- Least favourite plot device employed by way too many books you actually enjoyed otherwise
- A book you thought you wouldn’t like but ended up loving
- Your "comfort" book
- Favourite book cover including a picture!
- Favourite fictional relationship (romantic, friendship, familial)
- Most annoying character ever
- Most quotable novel or 5 of your favourite quotes from any books.
- Any five books from your "to be read" stack. What makes you select a book for your “to be read” stack?
- Some firsts: First book you remember loving/being obsessed with. First book that made you cry. First book you gave to someone else as a gift.
- Saddest character death OR best/most satisfying character death (or both!)
- The End: do you prefer everything tied up or to be able to 'make up your own mind'? What is the worst ending to a book you have read? And the best? (careful, spoiler tags!)
