No one tag me

For obvious reason. So, i tag myself. So clever......


I got this from Paris Beaverbank blog (Hi, i'm a silent reader) and it just shows how much i loves books.


Do you remember how you developed a love for reading?
I remember when i was small, my mum would read to me. My father would read Reader's Digest right before he sleeps. So, as a daughter i would follow whatever they do. The next thing i know my cousin starts calling me 'bookworm'. Having to wear a spec makes things worse.





What are some books you read as a child?

Enid Blyton's books! I still have it at my home. Nancy Drew, Sweet Valley High, R. L. Stine etc. Can't remember some of the title and author.










What is your favourite genre?
Anything that is not sc-fiction. (sorry not a big fan of star wars). Fantasy, romance, historical romance ,thriller. You name it, i am willing to read.

A tough question. I like Harry Potter. Pride and Prejudice.



Where do you usually read?

At home, on the bed. With a hot cocoa at my side table. "dreamy face"

Do you usually have more than one book you are reading at a time?

Yes.



Do you read nonfiction in a different way or place than you read fiction?

Yes, i usually read non fiction in front of the tv.



Do you buy most of the books you read, or borrow them, or check them out of the library?

I usually buy it. But now that my office had library, i prefer to borrow it. Save money mah.



Do you keep most of the books you buy? If not, what do you do with them?

I kept them. I have a mini library at my home. Now my rented house is turning into a mini library too.
