QUESTIONS
1. What cheers you up?
Reading and cooking, I find both activities relaxing and many times while cooking I have an audiobook 🎧 playing on the background.
2. Do you prefer to read one book at a time or several at once?
Generally, I’m reading an ebook and audiobook. I like to read the ebook at night in bed and listen to the audiobook while I drive, run errands, or do things around the house.
This week I’m reading I DO NOT TRUST YOU (ebook) and listening to WHERE THE CRAWDADS SING (audiobook)
3. How do you prepare for your next read? Do you go in completely blind/read just the blurb/read reviews/read everything you can and research the heck out of a book?
I like to check the goodreads ratings and book description. Many times I skip the reviews before reading the book because some of them reveal too much and I want to know no more than what is described on the cover.
4. Mountains or the beach?
100 times mountains. I enjoy the mountain weather and hiking. Because I live in a flat state I don’t get to go to the mountains often.
5. If you had to be trapped in a TV show or a book for a month, which show or book would you choose?
Hogwarts!!! The story, characters, and world-building of HP are really enchanting ✨
6. Describe to me your dream vacation or best vacation.
I would love to visit China and Japan ❤️, it’s somewhere I have not visited yet. One of the best vacations I’ve had in the past was going to Paris 💖, the history, museums, places were absolutely wonderful.
The about section has a picture of the last time I went, and of course, I had to visit bookstores and libraries.
7. List five words that best describes you.
Creative, independent, introverted, responsible, and observant.
8. What famous person do people tell you that you most resemble?
Rachael Ray
9. What is your favorite book genre and book that you have read in that genre?
I love thrillers and mysteries, I read them more than any other genre. A close second would be sci-fi and romance.
10. What is your least favorite book genre?
Poetry.
11. What is your favorite thing to spend money on?
Food 😬🍩

Thank you! It was fun to write 😀
Loved reading your answers and getting to know you better, Carol.
These tags are so much fun. I love learning about other people! I haven’t been to Asia, but one of my friends does contract work, and between jobs, she put all her stuff in storage, sold her car, let go of her apartment, and bounced around Asia for 10 WEEKS. Can you imagine??? Maybe when I’m retired. 🙂 Do you have any plans to visit Asia?
I’d love to visit but I don’t have any plans yet. Someday ☺️
