Happy Monday Everyone! Today, I am happy to announce that I have been nominated by Poppy @ Poppy’s Best of Books for the Entertainer Blogger Award! Thanks Poppy for finding me and nominating me, even though I don’t think we followed each other. August is the month of awards for me and I am so happy to have the chance to nominate you all for following me back! I love that we can support each other’s blog and encourage each other to read more!
The Rules
- Thank the person who nominated you and provide a link to their blog.
- Add these rules to your post.
- Answer all the questions below.
- Display the award picture in your post.
- Nominate 12 other bloggers who are funny, inspiring and most important of all ENTERTAINING!
The Questions
Q1. Why did you start a blog in the first place?
To keep track of my reading. I have read many good books in the past, but now I could not remember the titles or the authors. The blog and the reviews helps me to recall the books that I love. Also, I learn of so many great books to read through other bloggers and I don’t think I will ever stop blogging.
Q2. What is your favourite book?
Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe. It’s my most recent read and a book that can both make me laugh and cry is definitely a good book. There are series that I am interested to read again: The Lunar Chronicles, Harry Potter, Twilight, etc.
Q3. What do you dislike the most?
People being unfair. I know.. Life’s unfair.. haha..
Q4. What is your favourite food item from the mall?
Annie’s Almonds Pretzels
Q5. What is your favourite pastime?
Besides reading and blogging, I like to sightsee. I like to visit different places, local and far. I prefer botanical gardens over museums, but both are good. I am amazed at both.

How Useful It Is 
I love Annie’s Pretzels in the mall! So good. Not a fan of almonds, though. Loved reading your answers! Thanks for nominating me. Took me a while to get around to posting it, but that’s what I’m going to do right now. 🙂

Thank you for the nomination Jasmine! And congratulations for winning so many awards! I started my blog for the same reason, so I can look back at all the books I read and remember my thoughts. I also love sightseeing but I tend to be holed up at my house so I don’t usually do it much.

Thanks 😊 How long ago did you started your blog? Do you know how many books you read per year?

I started in March 2014 but I didn’t start posting frequently until last year. I update Goodreads regularly and I log all the books I read on there but I don’t remember on the top of my head (and I’m too lazy to go and check 😀 ).

A lot of people are quick to insult Twilight and people who liked it (as if we are dumb), it annoys me, cause it was such a great read, you all are just judgmental bigots! Thanks for the tag love.

I have it in my collection too. I recently found a bonus book called The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner. I had no idea of that book. Have you read it yet?

Yes, and the half written story from Edward’s point of view, I had all the books, but like most of my book collections, people came and took them, it’s depressing when I think about my past book library.

Then my little sister steals them somehow, I’m not buying hard-copy books anymore, I get like 3 or less a year now, strictly e-books, plus it’s easier and costs less.
