This week's question is: When you’ve read a book, what do you do with it? (Keep it, give it away, donate it, sell it, swap it..?)
MY ANSWER: For the most part I keep my books! I might go back and re-read them someday if I have the time. But I love my books! Always have. Plus I like to stalk visit my fave authors and have them sign em.
Now when I've read a book that I didn't totally love, I will usually give it away in a contest and I have donated books to the library, some of my older contemporary type reads.
TGIF is a weekly feature created and hosted by GReads! that re-caps the week’s posts and has different question each week.
This week's question is: Most Popular: What blog post has gotten the most comments/activity on your blog this year?
MY ANSWER: Ooh that's a tough one! I say that because I feel like the weekly memes, such as this and other popular ones, Teaser Tuesday, Waiting on Wednesday, In My Mailbox, etc are "cheating" since a lot of those have a lot of comments. Same goes for anything that relates to a contest. Those always get more comments for obvious reasons.
It's also my birthday today, so if I'm not totally active today in the blogosphere, which I should have a decent chunk of time after I get off work to check on things! But yay! It's also my niece's birthday too! She's very excited for hers! Me, kind of ehh...just want my cookie cake!!
I usually keep the book I love too - just so I can admire them, ahah! =) I give away/swap the ones I didn't enjoy.
ReplyDelete- Happy FF!
Happy Birthday!!!! I had a similar answer to you about blog comments - a lot of them have come from memes, so I didn't want to include them.
