This week’s question:

“If you could have 3 wishes granted, what would they be?”

1) Being able to time travel to both the past and future and anywhere in the universe. Seriously, how awesome would that be? I’d go to visit ancient Egypt, the earth 4,000 years in the future, I’d visit planets galaxies away. Basically I want to be Doctor Who.

2) Eternal life. With an option to die when I want to (like vampires can just walk into the sun or stake themselves). + Not growing older.

3) Magic is real, kids get to go to Hogwarts and I get to go to Hogwarts too! What, nothing wrong with going back to school when you’re in your twenties…At least not when that school is HOGWARTS. All right, fine, I’d probably be a teacher by now, but whatever. Magic for the win.

What are your three wishes?

This week’s question:

If you were to get a tattoo, what would it say or what would the graphic be? Or if you have a tattoo, share a picture and its meaning.

I’m not a big fan of tattoos. I don’t mind them on other people – everyone is entitled to do what they want to do with their body – but I don’t want them for myself, mostly because they’re permanent, and what if I wanted to change them afterward? But IF I ever got one, it would probably be of a dragon. Why? Because dragons are awesome.

This week’s question:

“How do you organize your books? Either at home on your bookshelves or on your reading-device, or on your bookish platform like Goodreads,Leafmarks or Booklikes.”

Well, on my bookshelves, I mostly oranize them per genre. YA goes with YA, adult with adult, and then I have subclassifications for horror, thrillers, and so on. For on Goodreads, I organize them per genre and per month I reviewed them.

This week’s question:

How did you come up with your blog title and address? Does it have a special meaning for you?
Well, my blog had another name first. It was just part of my main domain with my personal website and stuff, and it was just called “booklog”, which was so boring I had to come up with something better. Then I wanted “I Heart Books”, but another website already had that. So I decided on “I Heart Reading” in the end. Maybe not all that original, but it keeps my blog genre-neutral, so I can review any genre of books.

This week’s question:

Here is €/£/$100,000. Buy something. Anything at all! What would be the first thing you choose, and why?

A trip around the world! I don’t have to think about that twice. I’ve been wanting to go on a trip around the world for years, and $100 000 should make that happen.

This week we have to talk about our favorite books for 2013. That’s actually quite easy for me. My favorite 2013 books were “The Crossing Places” by Elly Griffiths, “Ghost Story” by Peter Straub, “Last Days” by Adam Nevill, and “Clockwork Princess” by Cassandra Clare, the last being my absolute favorite.

What were your favorite reads for 2013?

Happy Mardi Gras! If they were throwing the HOTTEST books off of a Mardi Gras float — what would you do to have them throw to you…?

Jump up and down, wave my arms, yell thel oudest I can, maybe even use my non-existent superpowers to fly and grab those books. Or I’d buy a lasso and grab the books as they’re thrown out. But I wouldn’t do what I’ve seen so many girls do during the Mardi Gras parade and stuff and flash their boobs and sometimes even more. It’s fine if they want to do it, but I wouldn’t go that far myself.
I’m curious to see though what you would do to get those books! Please reply below. Leave a link to your blog and I’ll definitely come read your post (and follow of course!)

This week’s question: If you could choose one supernatural being/creature to really exists what would it be and why?

That’s vampires, hands down. I know that they’re usually the bloodsucking type, not the sparkly ones, and I’m fine with that as long as…well…I get to be one as well. I’m terrified of growong old, and eventually dying. Yep. That’s one of my worst fears right there (confession time for me, heh) and I seriously don’t want that to happen. So I’m going for vampires. Then I’ll make a bargain with one of them to turn me into a vampire as well, and I’ll live forever. That’s my genius master plan. The alternative is that I turn into Buffy The Vampire Slayer and kick their ass if they don’t want to change me.

What type of supernatural being would you like to exist, if any?

This week’s question is: What New Years Blogging or Writing resolution have you placed on yourself?

Answer: I’ve come up with several resolutions for the New Year. First of all, I’m going to try and read and review 150 Books in 2013. I nearly made it last year, so I’m hoping I get there this time around. Secondly, I want to revamp my reviewing system. The way it’s now, it sometimes takes me several weeks between reading a book and reviewing it, which isn’t ideal. I want to keep this at a week tops. I can’t review a book right away after reading, because I like to think it through first, but still, several weeks is way too long. I want to go back to blogging every day here, and participate in my weekly memes. And most of all, I want to have fun and discovers lots of new, exciting books!
