    RAPID FIRE BOOK TAG

    This is a rapid fire book tag where I answer the first thing that pops in my head. Borrowed from The Bibliophile Girl

    E-Book Or Physical Book?

    Physical books. They so much easier on the eyes, literally and figuratively

    Paperback Or Hardback?

    Paperback. I am not into hardback books. I know they’r pretty to look at but they’re heavy and I hate dealing with the book jacket.

    Online Or In-Store Book Shopping?

    In store definitely. Online shopping has infinite choices but nothing compares to being surrounded by books. And smelling them.

    Audiobooks: Yes Or No?

    Yes, definitely. I have always wondered how people can work with computers all day, go home, read and blog without getting their visions impaired. I need those audiobooks to give my eyes rest. Also, I love how the characters come alive in the hands of a great narrator.

    Do You Ever Judge A Book By Its Cover?

    All the time. As an avid reader of MM, I’d be the first to say that majority of the covers are cringe-inducing.

    Book To Movie Or Book To TV?

    Neither really. If pressed, I’d say TV has the better format to capture all the book’s elements

    A Movie Or TV Show That You Preferred To The Book?

    Legally Blonde is way better as a movie than a book. I also like how the movie Like Water for Chocolates took almost everything from the book quite literally.
