55 quirky questions for readers part 3

23. Genre you rarely read (but wish you did):

Probably more autobiographies. They take me longer to get through though and aren't always an "escape" which is my primary motivation for reading.

24. Favourite Biography:

I don't think I have one. I can't think of one I have read to be honest.


25. Have you ever read a self-help book?

I'm sure I have at some point. I don't know when or what it was though.

26. Favourite Cookbook:

Baking

27. Most inspirational book you’ve read this year (fiction or non-fiction):

Remarkable Creatures by Tracy Chevalier


28. Favourite reading snack:

 Nacho chips, but they make my fingers orange which marks the book pages and I don't like that too much.

29. Name a case in which hype ruined your reading experience:

Probably book 3 of the Hunger Games. To be honest I still can't decide if I even liked the book or not. The hype messed with my head!


30. How often do you agree with the critics about about a book?
I RARELY read what a critic has to say about a book. If it is a book or series that gets a lot of hype I try not to be affected, which sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. I don't usually go so far as to determine it I agree with critics or not.  .

31. How do you feel about giving bad/negative reviews?
I wish I were a better reviewer than I am. I have no problem posting on my goodreads account when I don't like a book and I will often tell people when I dislike a book.


32. If you could read in a foreign language, which language would you choose?
Farsi, or French.

33. Most intimidating book I’ve read :
Atlas Shrugged. I was intimidated by it until I started to read it, then I loved it.
34. Most intimidating book I’m too nervous to begin:

War and Peace.


35. Favourite Poet:

Elizabeth Barrett Browning or Carol Lynn Pearson
