Tag! 7 Deadly Sins of Reading!

Wow two posts, in one day this is not like me, however I found myself scouring YouTube again today and came across this tag in the book community and felt the need to do my own, so I hope you enjoy it!

Questions:

1. GREED what is your most expensive book? What is your least expensive book?

I sat here for quite a few minutes trying to think of what my most expensive book is. I found it really hard because I am a cheap skate, honest to god I will see a book I want to read, but I won’t buy it on the spot I'll do some research and find the cheapest place I can get it (I'm a student okay don't judge I'm broke!) It’s probably going to have to be the Egyptology book I got years ago that I’m pretty sure it was over at least £10 at the time.

The least expensive book does one that you get as gift count? Technically they are free. Otherwise I'm not sure books are generally around the same price of £3/4/5. Wait no I know! There was a book that I really wanted to read but you couldn't get in any form other than in an eBook It was Ceaseless by Abbi Glines I bought it for Kindle (I don't have a Kindle I downloaded the app for my laptop) and it cost just £2.53, I'm pretty positive I don't have a cheaper book than that.

2. WRATH—what author do you have a love/hate relationship with?

Maggie Stiefvater. Easy one this. I absolutely loved the Wolves of Mercy Fall's Trilogy, however I went on to read Lament and Ballad and I found them to be rather boring. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed Lament well enough I just couldn't get into Ballad. I haven't read any of her others yet, The Scorpio Races and The Raven Boys. I do plan to read them because I enjoy her style of writing, I just wasn't a fan of Lament and Ballad compared the Wolves of Mercy Falls.

3. GLUTTONY—what book have you deliciously devoured over and over with no shame whatsoever?

Hmm I think a number of books would fall in to this category, the newest of these would be Gabriel's Inferno by Sylvain Reynard. I must've read that at least four times since I got it, and that was late December, I would put Twilight on this list but I'm ashamed of the amount of times I read it so it doesn't count!

4. SLOTH—what book have you neglected reading due to laziness?

Easy one I got Bram Stokers Dracula a while back, I picked it up to read got two chapters in went to bed and then never picked it up again. I will read it one day, perhaps this year will be the year I do.

5. PRIDE—what book do you most talk about in order to sound like a very intellectual reader?

That would most definitely be Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys. Before you ask no. It has nothing to do with Fifty Shades of Grey. You can find out more about this book here, and I hope it's not too much to ask that you do because I feel that this is a book everyone should read, bearing in mind that my dad doesn't like the kind of books I read except for this one. He really enjoyed this one so if you get the chance to read it, please do.

6. LUST—what attributes do you find most attractive in male or female characters?

I like a female character to be tough and pretty kickass like Katniss from Hunger Games, Lina from Between Shades of Gray and Tris from Divergent.

It's the same with the guys really, kickass pretty tough, but with a sweet side like Four in Divergent.

But then I'm also the girl that reads the generic romance stories, with the sweet innocent girl, and closed off troubled leading man.

7. ENVY—what books would you most like to receive as a gift?

Any books. People ask me on birthdays and Christmas what do I want and it's literally, books, I just send them my Amazon wish list and tell them pick one. At this point in time there isn't one book that I absolutely want to read more than any others.
