I was tagged by Mehrin for this thingie
What makes you mark a book as DNF? DNF stands for did not finish Iâm guessing, like in Nascar and stuff? I guess if itâs just bad or forced, and the protagonist isnât likeable, last one I didnât finish is Ready Player One, the supposedly 17 year old kids narrates like an edgy 14 year old atheist redditor who only speaks 80â˛s memes.
What are your favourite series? I donât think I have one, I guess I liked Harry Potter as a kid, also young Indiana Jones novels. I read those, Three Investigators or whatever it was called too.
Do you have any favourite animal characters from standalones/series? Animal character? Only one I can think of is Aslan. Also I first thought it said anime character.
Have you ever read a book in one sitting, and if so, what was that book? I read of Mice and Men in one sitting, Old Man and The Sea too.Â
Which book made you laugh the most? Hmm...not sure. I remember though I almost died laughing when reading On The Road, when Montana Slim tries pissing off the back of the truck but they keep swerving. That was properly funny.
What was the last book you bought? Just today I bought three from Amazon, Filth by Irvine Welsh cause I want to reread it in a physical copy, Martian by Andy Weir, and The Axemanâs Jazz cause it sounds cool and it was 4 quid.
Have you been recommended a book that you ended up not liking? I guess Ready Player One for sure, I canât remember far back, this is the most recent one.
Who is your favourite protagonist? I donât know. Patrick Bateman is cool, in a very sick way. Heâs brilliantly written, favorite unreliable narrator.
Are there any books or series that youâve been putting off reading (for whatever reason)? A lot of the classics, just cause of the language and stuff. Infinite Jest though for sure, just the size and the format. For some reason I really want to conquer that mountain of the book, for another I donât even want to try. Also, The Naked Lunch. I started, saw that itâs just completely impossible to follow whatâs going on and quit for now.
Which fictional character is most like you? I wish it was someone cool, but itâs not. I donât know. Probably some ordinary nerdy guy from a John Green novel, but a side character thatâs not pretentious or weird enough. Just a normal bloke.
Have you ever cried after reading a book? No.
I canât think of tagging anyone, just copy the questions if you want to do this and just tag me so I see it. Whatever suits you, man.
