Thank you so much to Rose from Stuck in Fiction for nominating me! It has been so long since I posted an award, so I was excited to be nominated for this one! I also loved the questions that she asked.
Rules:
Answer the three questions posed to you by the person who nominated you
Ask three questions
Nominate up to 8 others
Rose’s Questions:
What is one book you wish you could read again, as if it were the first time?
This is such a great question, and there are so many books that I could choose for this! I am going to go with The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton because that is the book that truly made me fall in love with reading. I had read many books before that one but something about it really lit a fire in me, and opened my eyes to the power that books can have.
If you could co-write a book with any author, who would you choose?
Another fantastic question! I have to go with Jandy Nelson! She is a beautiful writer, and I think that she could truly bring all of my ideas to life. If I were to write a novel I think it would be Young Adult, and it seems only fitting that my favourite YA author would co-write it with me!
What is one genre that you really want to read more of this year?
There are a lot of genres that I am hoping to read more of this years, specifically non-fiction, SciFi, and historical fiction. The one genre that I really want to get back in to is historical fiction. I used to read it almost exclusively but I have moved away from that in recent years. I would love to return to it this year because it remains to be my favourite genre.
My Questions:
- Who is the one character that you relate to the most?
- Which book do you wish was made in to a movie? (Bonus question- who would you cast as the lead?)
- If you could travel to any setting within a book, where would you go?
Nominations:
Great post, historical fiction is also a genre I love but never seem to read as much ☺
I think it’s because they are quite wordy and can take awhile to get through!
Definitely.
I love to read historical fiction in between my mystery/thrillers. Sometimes you just need a break from all that investigating and killing lol.
Haha that makes sense! I have been trying to read from a mix of genres lately so I won’t fall in to a slump. Seems to be working! I am hoping to start reading more thrillers this year!
I’d love to read The Outsiders again with fresh eyes, too! It’s so amazing.
Right?! So sad but so good!
Those are great questions! And I love the idea of reading a book as if it was the first time, because sometimes I don’t like already knowing what’s going to happen.
I know! There are so many books that I wish I could do that with!
Loved your answers, Kristin! I would also want to read The Outsiders for the first time again. It was such a beautiful book! <3
Thank you! It is definitely a book that has left a lasting impression on me!
Loved all your answers, I think if I wrote a book it would be YA as well! I really want to read more historical fiction too, it’s one of my favourite genres!
Thank you! I think it would be so fun to write a YA book! I don’t know what it is about historical fiction that I love. There is just something about it that I gravitate towards!
It makes learning about history a lot more fun!
yay jandy nelson!!! also if you wrote a book with her maybe you could get her to hurryyyyy uppppp and publish her next one
That would be amazing. I can’t believe she only has two books!
Ah I hear you about historical fiction- I really used to like it but barely read it anymore. Great answers!
Thank you! I feel like historical fiction isn’t talked about as much so I never know what is good or what is coming out! I need to find some bloggers who read/review historical fiction!
You’re welcome! I totally get that! I’m trying to think of people to recommend now lol… do you follow stephanie’s novel fiction and luvtoread? I think some of what they read is historical fiction if I remember correctly.
I follow Stephanie but I don’t think I follow the other blog! Definitely going to check it out. Thanks!
Awesome! You’re welcome!
Loved all your answers! I adore historical fiction, so much, so its great to see you want to read some more books from that genre. ❤
