 
Hi guys! So pretty much every booktuber I
watch
has done this tag. It's originally created
by
bookishlymaliza and I finally got
around figuring out what on Earth all my answers
would be.
I think these are definitely really
interesting questions and a great way to
get to know each other.
If for some reason you haven't seen this
tag already it's basically adapted
from the beauty community
and it's about the seven sins of reading.
So there are questions based on each
sin.
So the first sin is greed and the question is -
what are your most expensive and least
expensive books.
So for most expensive I would definitely
have to go
with Leonardo da Vinci The Complete Paintings
and Drawings
Taschen 25th anniversary edition.
This cost me about 70 dollars. I bought it in
Powell's
in Oregon, and I have read the whole
thing and it's
absolutely beautiful and I am so happy
to have this in my collection.
So for the least expensive book there
are many books that I have gotten
at yard sales and thrift stores,
so, I don't really remember which one
is actually my cheapest book
but I found this copy and The Lion the
Witch and the Wardrobe
which is 1.95.
I've had this copy for ever. I think I
actually got it from
my dad. So technically, it was free. This
edition
is the 28th printing in 1979.
So the second sin is rath. Which
author do you have a love-hate
relationship with?
So for this one I chose Dan Brown
he writes really fun and interesting books
but they are a bit
simple and predictable especially when
you've already read one.
I don't really love or hate him but
there aren't
any authors that I love and also hate.
I love George RR Martin and yeah he
kills off his characters but
I kinda like him all the more for that. The third sin
is gluttony. Which book can you
re-read
over and over without shame? For this I
chose the Harry Potter series
I first started reading it in the fourth
grade an I've re-read each book before
its movie came out and before its sequel
came out and I've also
reread the entire series 1 or 2 times just
for fun.
I will be making a video soon just about
Harry Potter
and related topics such as Pottermore
an The Casual Vacancy, the new book by Jo
Rowling.
The fourth sin is sloth. Which book have
you neglected
due to laziness. I chose the Phantom of
the Opera.
I started reading this back in 2007 or
so
but I never really finished it. I even
still have this fifteen dollars iTunes
music
gift card as my bookmark. Part of the
reason why I haven't finished this is
because
it's been so long that I feel like I would just
have to start over
but that just hasn't really happened yet.
So the fifth sin is pride - which book do
you talk about
the most to seem intelligent? Now this isn't
something that I actually make an effort
to do
but if I had to choose something I would
probably say
Wuthering Heights. I read this before
my junior year in high school, the first
year that
I joined AP English. I've read it several
times since then, I've written
many many essays on this book and
and Emily Bronte as well as her sisters.
And I know that some people don't like
this book
and it's either too over their heads or too crazy for them
but I love it. I also might say
A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering
Genius which I haven't actually read all
the way through yet but
someone commented that this is the book
that all the cool kids are reading
so I guess that could fit for this
question too,
but I never really read a work just because
it's popular
I only read something if it's genuinely
interesting to me.
The sixth sin is lust - what do you find
attractive
in a character? So for guys I usually like
dark hair and tall but I will end up
picturing my ideal guy
in place of the main love interest
anyways.
I like a guy who's funny and at least in
books
a bit of a bad boy. A perfect example
which
isn't actually a book character is Jess from
Gilmore Girls.
I absolutely love him and I think that
is
the best decision the writers on that
show ever made
and I love everything about that show. I'm
currently re-
watching the third season of Gilmore
Girls where they
start officially dating and I just love
it
so so much. So the 7th sin
is envy - which book would you like to
receive
as a gift? Now there are so many that I
could name
for this question. The first thing that comes
to mind is the Complete
Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan
Doyle.
Rincey Reads mentioned the Barnes & Noble
classics which
are so beautiful. I already own the complete
Jane Austen which I showed in my
favorites video.
I made a list on Goodreads so if you're
friends with me on there, just go and
check out my
wish list shelf and any of those books
would suffice for an answer to this
question.
So, there you have it the seven deadly
sins of reading!
I'm not gonna tag anyone specific - if you
wanna do this tag just do it
chances are you already have. I will link
below to
the original tag and also to Rincey Reads' video
If you don't wanna make a video you should leave
your picks in the comments below.
There are a lot of you guys out there that I
haven't heard from yet, so
let me know. Alright, see you next time bye!
Oh, also I happen to reach 100 subscribers, so
YAY! and thank you guys so so much, you
guys are the reason I love doing this.
Alright, bye!
