Q: Have you ever disliked or felt “meh” about a book only to later change your mind and love it?

Prompt Submitted by: Megan @ Love Literature Art and Reason

A:  I don't usually change my mind once I've read a book, but currently I'm re-reading Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas, and I'm enjoying it way more than the first time I read it four years ago (I wouldn't call it love thought)! :D

Q:  Hard print (real thing) or Kindle/Nook, which is your favorite?

A:  To be honest, it's more of a 50/50 situation nowadays.  I love the fact that I have so many choices when I'm carrying my Kindle around, and I have noticed that reading is easier on my Fire than it was with my Touch.  But I do always have at least one print book in my purse at all times, and I do seem to read faster with an actual book most of the time.  What about everyone else?  What do you all prefer?  Share with me in the comments! :D

Q:  Do you own any doubles of your books?  What led you to getting a second...or third or fourth...copy?

A:  So, yeah...I'm going to admit that I'm a bit of a freak about my Anne of Green Gables series!  I have the first two books three times each!  I have a falling apart Scholastic paperback, a beautiful illustrated edition and an ebook of #1.  Of #2, I have an old (slightly falling apart) hardcover edition, a paperback version and an ebook.  The third one I have a paperback and an ebook.  The rest are just paperbacks, but I'd love hardcovers with the original artwork.  A first edition of AoGG is my dream book!  I love old books and old children's books are my personal crack (I desperately want the anniversary edition of A Wrinkle in Time too, even though I have a paperback and an ebook!).  I'm going to shut up now, and put the freak flag away!!! LOL

Q:  Merry Christmas!  Happy Holidays!  What books did Santa stuff your stocking with this holiday season?  Do a holiday book haul for us!  If you don't celebrate just show off your books you got this week!  Pictures!!!

A:  Considering some people got NO books, I still got more than some.  But this was definitely not the year of the book!  The majority of what I seemed to get was movies this year.  I did get four ebooks between my three BFFs and a hardcover from my Mom, who seems to feel it's her duty to make sure one of my Christmas presents is ALWAYS a book of some sort (thanks be to everything holy for that!!!)! :)  So here is what I happened to receive:

From my friend Hannah.  I have been eyeing it FOREVER, but hate paying over a $1 for novellas, because I am a super big cheapskate.  But I finally GOTS IT!!! :D

 

These were both from my friend Ree, who combed my Amazon wishlist and chose them simply because she thought they looked interesting!  I am super excited to see if they're any good.  I'm always looking for really awesome, new high fantasy books!

Funnily enough, my friend Elizabeth has gifted me the last three books in this series.  I was the one who introduced her to the author (and her books) and I have falled very far behind!  I need to catch up dammit!!!

Bless her heart, this is the one that my Mom got for me.  And I tell you what, I am super excited to finally read it!  Now I just need to get a copy of The Mark of Athena, and I'll own all the Percy Jackson books in both series!  Yay!

Of course, not to be outdone by others, these are the ones I got myself:
