1. Who's clothing style from a book do you like?
The first person that comes to mind is Isabelle Lightwood from The Mortal Instruments, because she has a really kickass sense of fashion. I feel like I would also love Bronwyn's from Amy and Roger's Epic Detour, because she seems to know what she's talking about. Or anyone from any book set in the 1800s because yes please.
2. Your book boyfriend/fictional crush?
Oh my. Are you really asking me to chose just one? I'm going to have to go with Will Herondale and Jem Carstairs from The Infernal Devices. They're from the same book so I can have both, right?
3. Ever loved a character but then started hating them?
Four from Divergent. Loved him in Divergent, tolerated him in Insurgent, hated him in Allegiant. I really don't like that book series at all.
4. Biggest/longest book on your shelf?
It by Stephen King. According to Goodreads it has more pages than Under the Dome, but I'm too lazy to go check my editions.
5. Heaviest book on your shelf?
Again, either It or Under the Dome by Stephen King. Or the bind up of the Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis.
6. Do you have any book posters?
Unfortunately, I do not.
7. Do you have any book themed jewelry?
I do! I have a Harry Potter bracelet and quite possibly some other things that I'm forgetting.
8. Book OTP?
Probably James and Lily Potter.... but I have a lot.
9. Favourite book series?
HARRY POTTER ALL THE WAY.
10. Favourite book to movie soundtrack?
Catching Fire was good. So was If I Stay, but I haven't actually seen that movie.
11. A book story you miss/wish would continue?
Harry Potter. And The Infernal Devices.
12. Favourite Standalone?
The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath. And Forbidden by Tabitha Suzuma. And a million others that I'm not going to name.
13. When did you start reading?
When I was like... 5.
14. Which Hogwarts house are you in?
I've always been in Slytherin, but the last time I took the Pottermore quiz, it sorted me into Ravenclaw. That changed everything in my life.
15. Quality you look for in a book?
Fast paced.
16. Favourite book quote?

17. Favourite author?
Sylvia Plath, J.K. Rowling, Oscar Wilde, Rainbow Rowell, Cassandra Clare, and too many others.

The Retribution of Mara Dyer! Mostly because what's on the cover was actually a scene described in the book and it made me happy.
19. Action or romance?
BOTH.
20. Where to you go when a sad moment happens?
Into a very dark corner from which I don't emerge for years.

Depends on the book. Anywhere from an hour to a year.
22. How long is your mourning period?
This depends. But usually I'm good after a few hours. Or days. Or years.
23. Least favourite book?
Fallen Too Far and Never Too Far by Abbi Glines. Ugh. These were SO BADLY WRITTEN and I felt offended as a woman while I was reading a lot of it. I've stayed far away from new adult ever since.
24. Turn on in a character?
Witty.
25. Turn off in a character?

Fangirl & Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell, Amy and Roger's Epic Detour by Morgan Matson, Anny and the French Kiss & Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins, To All The Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han, and My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick.
