I'm trying to make the best out of a promotion from a publisher and need to decide on which book to get:

Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater

Pure by Julianna Baggott

I'm interested in Shiver because of the critiques I've read on it but Pure sounds interesting too because of the general idea. TORN. HELP ME?

EVERYBODY! CRESS FINALLY ARRIVED!!

I ordered it for my bday (I always get myself a present - aka a book) and because you nasty lovely lunartics kept posting delicious stuff on Cress I just had to get it, and if I was going to get it then it would have to be the hardcover one :D

I got to me one week later than the predicted (T_T) but it still got here :D

I wass tagged by biblioboner, (serious points for your URL jsyk, haha)

  1. What do you think your favourite fictional characters favourite meal would be? Favourite fictional character: Neal Caffery (White Collar - TV Show) Neal's favourite meal would either be something really simple that his aunt used to make when he lived with her, ooorrr something really elaborate that goes splendidly with a beautifully aged bottle of wine. 

2. Most annoying literary character and why? Most annoying literary character I've come across is probably the Red Queen from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. Don't ask. 

3. A book you’d like to see a movie adaptation for? The Lily Quench series by Natalie Jane Prior. It would make my life. 

4. A book you’d never want to be a movie? The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern. I think this book as a movie would be absolutely gorgeous if they did it right. But I would hate to see how they adapt the time jumps into the film. I just think it would be too confusing and they would have to leave too much out. It works so well as a book, I just think it should stay that way. 

5. Literary character you’d be best friends with? Penryn Young from Angelfall by Susan Ee ~ AND ~ Carson Phillips from Struck by Lightning by Chris Colfer

6. Literary character you’d be enemies with? Reverend Parris from The Crucible by Arthur Miller. Ugh. 

7. Favourite hero? My favourite is actually the pairing of Prince Ash and Robin Goodfellow in The Iron Fey series by Julie Kagawa. I don't know why, they just are.

8. Favourite classic novel (if any)? The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson. Best classic, seriously. 

9. Favourite author? Enid Blyton. Bless her heart. 

10. Favourite genre? Fantasy/dystopian/si-fi/contemporary/absolutely anything interesting oops 

YOUR QUESTIONS, SHOULD YOU ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE: (idk I'm being unnecessarily dramatic, let's move on) 1. How long does it take you to get through the average book? 2. Book series you wish would be made into a TV series? 3. I play with my bookmark while I read. Do you have any fidgety habits while reading?  4. Literary character you look up to? 5. Literary character you wish you could yell at? 6. Series (book or television) you wish ended differently 7. Have any books ever inspired you to make things (art, gifs, jewellery, etc)?  8. If you could jump into any literary world for a week, where would you go and what would you take with you? 9. How do you arrange your books?  10. Stance on e-readers?
