My fellow booknerd, Vee of The Blah Blah Notebook tagged me with the Seven Deadly Sins tag. I've never done a tag post before... but who am I to refuse a seemingly fun opportunity to talk about what I like or hate?
So, here we go.
GREED
1. What is your most unexpensive book?
A lot! I rarely buy books and when I do, it's usually at a book sale. I get most of my ebooks for free, and I have more than a hundred of them right now -- all unread.
WRATH
2. What author do you have a love/hate relationship with?
This is a hard question. When I read books penned by the same author, that's usually because I like his/her works. Cases in point: Rick Riordan, Stephanie Perkins, Sophie Kinsella, and Cindi Madsen. I love all of their works that I've read. I have to copy Vee's answer: John Green. I know, I know, he has a lot of fans. Don't mob me. I've rated most of his books 4 stars because I liked them at the time. But now, all I remember is the mind f*ckery that I went through while reading his books.
GLUTTONY
3. What book have you devoured over and over again with no shame?
Hands down, Anna and the French Kiss. 'Nuff said.
SLOTH
4. Which book have you neglected reading due to laziness?
That would be Gone Girl. Now, now, you don't have to talk me into it. I am totally convinced that it's good because I've never seen a bad review of it and a lot of people have been pushing me to read it. It's not actually laziness but more of my unmotivating (is there such a word) schedule that's hindered me from reading this. But since I know that I'll read it faster if I have it in print, I finally bought it.
PRIDE
5. What books do you most talk about in order to sound like an intellectual reader?
Classics would definitely do the trick... except I rarely read classics (next to never). But I do read non-fiction. I guess that's something I'll pull out when I want to impress someone with my wit.
LUST
6. What attributes do you find attractive in a male or female character?
I like strong female characters like Katniss Everdeen and Annabeth Chase and Sadie Kane. But honestly, I love clumsy, funny ones more, especially when they're English/British -- like Sophie Kinsella's girls. As for male characters, he has to be funny. Like Percy Jackson and Etienne St. Clair and Levi (of Fangirl... does he have a last name?). Also a bit nerdy and weird, like Cricket Bell and Simon Lewis (of the TMI series).
ENVY
7. What book would you most like to receive as a gift?

Isla and the Happily Ever After. There is nothing else. I even made a playlist for it (with Laila's help). I've read it but I don't have it in print yet. Anyone, please? Ktnxbye.
That was fun! Thanks, Vee, for tagging me. :)
Now I am tagging (I hope you haven't done this yet)...
