Follow Friday (18)

Just a few more days 'til Christmas and the start of a New Year! I can't wait! Follow Friday is hosted by Alison Can Read and Parajunkee. This week's features are From the Shadows I review and Ce-Ce's Garden of Reviews. This week's question is...
Q: If you had to spend eternity inside the pages of a book which book would you choose and why?

Errr.... um... maybe.... the Vampire Academy series? That's only if I could be a dhampir or morori, and maybe an alchemist. If not, then I chose Divergent, but it would be so hard to chose between the factions (^^;).

Yay, it's Follow Friday! Just wanted to let you know that we will have two posts for the Tower of Parlen Min blog tour later today! Follow Friday is hosted by Alison Can Read and Parajunkee's View. Anyway this week's features are Me, My Shelf and I and Hands and Home. This week's question is...
Q. Talk about the book that most changed or influenced your life (was it a book that turned you from an average to avid reader, did it help you deal with a particularly difficult situation, does it bring you comfort every time you read it?).

Evermore by Alison Noel. I hated the rest of the books, but this is the one I love...and that got me into YA. I was walking through the bookstore near our small theater with my friends. We were waiting for our movie, you see. After grabbing a few mangas from the bookshelf, I walked back to my seat. That's when I saw Evermore. I was drawn in by the beautiful cover and the rest is history.

What book changed/influenced your life?

Hellooo~ Welcome to Cup of Tea Reviews! Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee.com & Allison can read! This week's feature is We Fancy Books and A Novella's Tale! This week's question is... *drum roll*

Q. Name 3 authors that you would love to sit down and spend an hour or a meal with just talking about either their books or get advice on writing from?

Meg Cabot, Cassandra Clare and J.K. Rowling.

Meg Cabot because it was, after all, her novels got me involved in reading YA. The Mediator was the best and I LOVED the Princess Diaries.

Cassandra Clare because SHE WROTE THE INFERNAL DEVICES!!!
I'm A D D I C T E D to it!

J.K. Rowling, I don't know where to start.

I FORGOT!! I FORGOT!!! Sorry, things are getting crazy over here. I haven't been reviewing lately because of a lot of things going on. I only have a moment for this so....

It's Follow Friday! Hosted by Parajunkee.com. This week's feature is Angela from Angela's Anxious Life and this week's question is:

Q. What do I do when I are not reading?

When I'm not reading, I'm writing. At least whenever I feel like it, which is almost never, despite the fact that I love to write. Other than that I email, call and visit my friends.

Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee.com. This week's feature is Erika from Let's talk about books! This week's question is:

Q. ACK! Your favorite book/movie character (example Hermione Granger played by the Emma chick) just walked into the room! Who is it and what would be your first reaction? You get extra points if you include visual stimulation.

There's a lot of characters I would pick but I think I would chose Alex from Delirium. I would probably just gawk at him for a few moments before saying something stupid. Then I would just stare at him. Yup, I'm that awkward around guys.

Q: In light of the Summer Solstice. Also known as Midsummer...let's talk about fairies. What is your favorite fairy tale or story that revolves around the fae?

I would say Thumbelina. I remember I used to read it all the time when I was young.

Q. Genre Wars! What's your favorite genre and which book in that genre made it your favorite?

Q. The magic book fairy pops out of your cereal box and says "you and your favorite character (from a book of course) can switch places!" Who are you going to switch with?

I would switch with Tessa from the Infernal Devices. I always wanted to know what it felt like to live in London. Also, at the same time, I could kick Nate's and Jessamine's butt!

And I'll just answer last week's question for fun:

Q. What are you doing to prepare for an upcoming zombie apocalypse and/or the return of Mel Gibson to the silver screen? (Both of which could be terrifying.)

For the first one, that's easy: Shotgun. I've watched tons of zombie movies (including my favorite, Zombieland) and played millions of zombie video games (e.x. Resident Evil) since I was a kid. I'm sure I could hold my own against a zombie apocalypse. Or I could just skip the whole combat and just dress up like a zombie so they'll won't eat me.

For the second, I... don't know...

Q. The Blogger Apocalypse made me a little emotional. What is the most emotional scene in a book that you have read lately?

Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee.com. Just click on the pic to see it! I think I almost missed this week's Follow Friday. Did I? Anyway, let's get on with the question! This week's question is:

Keeping with the dystopian and apocalypse theme that seems to be running rampant on parajunkee.com, I have one very hard question for you: If you were stocking your bomb shelter, what books would you HAVE to include if you only had space for ten?

This really is a hard question. I would say:

Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare
Across the Universe by Beth Revis
Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater
Delirium by Lauren Oliver
The Mediator Series by Meg Cabot (6)

So what books would you include if you  were stocking your bomb shelter?

It's the second Follow Friday, isn't it (For us at least)? Follow Friday is Hosted by Parajunkiee's View. You can click on the image to check it out! This Week's Question is:

Do you have anyone that you can discuss books with IRL? Tell us about him/her.

Sabrina: Yes, my friend Danielle. She's the top student in class. She always gets A+ on her report card. She would complain if she got anything less. She's really nice. She would share her lunch if anyone forgot their's. She would help the class study. I would always say, "This is why I'll never let my parents see her. They would say 'That was the child you were supposed to be.'" She's one of my best friends and we read a lot of books in common. I also discuss books with the reviewers of this site, Suzanne and Ashi. My Best Friends for Life since elementary school. Even though I moved away, we still keep in contact with each other.

Sorry it's late! You see, where I (Sabrina) am it was Saturday when Follow Friday was posted. Anyway, we recently joined Follow Friday. This is our first post for Follow Friday. It's hosted by Parajunkee.com. Just click on the pic up top to check out the site.

Question: Do you judge a book by it's cover?

Sabrina: Yes. Sort of. Kinda. I don't really have time to go to the library/bookstore and read the back every single book. Which ever cover catches my eye, I pick up. I also kinda believe that if the cover is bad, the book is bad. Unfortunately, I judge a book by it's title too. I'm guilty as charged.

Suzanne and Ashi are unavailable given their current timezone and will answer in a later post.
