Anthony’s questions
How many books can you read at once?
I am so bad at this… You only have to check out my ‘currently reading’ tab on Goodreads to see how many books I pick up and then change my mind on!! But actual reading, I tend to just read one at a time. I’m not really a switcher.
What book that hasn’t been adapted into film/tv would you like to see adapted?
Errrrr… well, after yesterday’s post on my thoughts about adaptations, let’s leave this one blank for now!!
Which 3 books would you buy right now, if you were given enough money for them?
OK, hardbacks are so expensive in Australia because shippings costs increase with the weight of the book, so I’ve got a lot of books on my Book Depository wishlist (free shipping!) but the costs of these books is currently between $35-60 (AUD) per book.
- Air Awakens – Elise Kova ($55.88)
- The Girl in the Tower – Katherine Arden ($37.46)
- Terry Pratchett’s Discworld Imaginarium – Paul Kidby ($54.01)
What is your favorite dessert?
Black forest cake with thickened cream. Or pavlova with crushed mint crisp and strawberries. Or salted caramel mousse cake. Damn I want cake now!
Where would you like to travel to one day?
Japan
If you could meet anyone in the world, who would it be?
My go to answer for this used to be Stan Lee. Before that it was Terry Pratchett. If I have to pick someone still alive I’d probably choose Maggie Stiefvater.
Would you ever get a tattoo? If so, what would you get?
I already have eight tattoos, but my next one will be another quote. From Nevernight. With a black cat.
Do you have any pets?
Yes! I have three cats – 2 black and 1 grey. (⬇︎ This is from their insta page)
If you were given a personal chef for a day, what would you have them cook for you?
Oooh, for a whole day?! All of the abovementioned cakes. Plus bacon, eggs and waffles for breakfast, a really delicious chicken caesar salad for lunch, and a roast dinner (lamb, beef or pork – I’m not fussed which) with potato gratin, roast cauliflower and carrots, and peas.
What is your favorite hobby/activity to do?
Ummm, read? I also like to bake.
What would your superpower be?
I don’t want a superpower. I’d rather have magic.

Congratulations on the award, yay! I also read one book at a time, I really like to focus on one book at a time too 🙂 It’s, wow, it’s A LOT to pay for these hardbacks, this is so annoying that these are so expensive 🙁
Wonderful answers! <3 <3
Meeghan reads
These hardbacks do seem to be extraordinarily expensive. They’re usually around the $25 mark!!
Marie

I have over 30 questions to answer from you now. ? ? Not that I’m complaining! Tag away! I’m just abominably slow at this. Also, what in the world??? Why does Air Awakens cost a small fortune??
Meeghan reads
I don’t know?!! Also, I’M SO SORRY!!! Hahahaha… I have started a list of people who I have tagged in things so I don’t tag you in 4 sunshine blogger awards… but clearly it doesn’t work across things!

Thank you so much for the tag!! <3 I honestly love that you only read one book at a time, usually — I really want to get into that habit. I miss how, when I was younger, I'd read one or two things at a time, and I'd just bust through one book after another. I feel like I remembered their details better that way, too, because I didn't get things mixed up with other plots I was reading at the same time (not that it happens often to me now anyways, but still!).
Meeghan reads
Hahahaha, my brain can barely handle one crazy plot-twist fueled book at a time. My mind boggles every time I see your WWW Wednesday. I am always in awe of you!!
Destiny @ Howling Libraries
Awww, shucks ??
