Anonymous Bookaholics tag Shawshank, November 18, 2020 Here’s another fun little bookish thing. 5 questions, and the first couple don’t count for me, but I’ll answer them as if they did count. I know, I know I should be tagging back to the original poster, and then tagging people I want to hear from. I’m just answering these for fun. 1. What’s your favourite bookshop? My favourite books shop would have to be the Barnes and Noble in Warwick, RI. I just wish that they’d concentrate more on books, and not toys and junk like that. 2. Do you preorder books? I don’t. Well, that’s a fib. I’ve preordered once. I preordered Written in My Own Hearts Blood. It was ok, it was delivered to my kindle on release morning. 3. Do you have a monthly buying limit? Lol I buy exclusively at second hand stores, where the books are .50c-$1 each. The selection sucks most of the time, but sometimes I get lucky and find some pretty awesome books. 4. Is your book wishlist big? I don’t know how to answer that. Size is relative. I have about 25 books in my wishlist. I’m sure others out there have 100s in the lists. So, 25 would be small. 5. What 3 books from your wishlist do you wish you had now? Wow, now that you put me in the spot, this is a really hard question to answer. There’s so many good books on my list that I want to read this is actually giving me some anxiety. I mean what if I choose wrong? What if y’all think I’m just choosing books to look cool, and I’ll never read them? What if my choices are stupid? The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E SchwabThe Troop by Nick CutterThe Supernatural Enhancements by Edgar Cantero I’m gonna have to hit post, because I’m second guessing all my choices. Would it be easier if it were 5 books? Probably. It’d give me some padding at least! Lockup Library blogbloggerbookbook loverbook memebookaholicbooksjournaltalking about books
