Follow Friday FEATURE [!]


Weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read.
Follow Friday is a fun way to get followers and get to know other amazing bloggers.


I'm the feature this week!

Yay! Thanks, Rachel & Alison!
I really appreciate it! and I also appreciate everyone who's coming today.

Hi!

I'm Melannie *starts to shake hands but hugs people instead*
it's very nice to see you here in this humble, little book blog :)

Please take a seat

Now, for this week's question:


Q: When you've read a book, what do you do with it? (Keep it, give it away, donate it, sell it, swap it..?)


I would like to say I'm one of those people who donate their books after they read them but I'm far too selfish (and honest).
The truth is, I always keep the books I buy, it's a relationship where I'm way too involved. 

 
My Books

YOU CAN'T TOUCH THIS!


=









But that's with my books, when I have a double copy or buy an extra one I don't have a problem giving them away, I mean books are the best presents and they make people happy :)

Q: What is your biggest pet peeve when it comes to books? Maybe you don’t like love triangles or thin plots? Tell us about it!

UCK, where to begin?!
  • Love triangles. I absolutely hate them, because the 2 guys/girls are always great and I hate that one of them gets their heart break ):
  • Weak hero/heroine. It gets on my nerves when the hero/heroine doesn't stand up for his/herself and does everything the romantic interest tells them too.
  • Cursing or religious jokes. Ugh, seriously why critize someone's belief just because it's not yours, I hate when books do that, I came to you to have fun not to get laughed at.
That's it. Was I too harsh? :$
Got carried away, sorry :)

This week's featured bloggers: Jenni Elyse & Caught in the pages.

Q. Have you ever wanted a villain to win at the end of a story? If so, which one??

Once upon a time, I used to be really in love with this little series called WINGS,


I loved the premise of book 1 and the faeries were kinda weird but original nevertheless.
But in books 2 & 3 the series went downfall, seriously, I sometimes don't even remember why I'm even reading this, the main character got so annoying!

I just wish the "bad guys" win this time.
Especially because "the bad guys" are the HUMANS.
And I'm starting to resent the fact that everyone wants to screw the humans just because they are not "special"

Welcome to another Follow Friday on Thursday :D
a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read.


This weeks question is:

Q. If you could write yourself a part in a book, what book would it be and what role would you play in that book?

Well, someone once told me I could make a good book character (and that someone is the incredible author of an incredible book released this year) so I guess I could be one :D,
AND I would like to be in a pirate novel haha
one of those that have a sexy man/woman combo on the cover.

Like this:
never read this before! I swear! haaha

And I will be the rebel girl from a small town that wants to know the world and uses her wit to go by in life. And I'll use my medical knowledge to save someone (hopefully some hot pirate guy), but everyone will oppose to me being a doctor (cause I'm a girl) so I will have to fight the system and find a way to save my little sister from the arena, so I'd raised my hand and volunteer...


wait, are we supposed to write a story here?...

Q. How has your reading habits changed since you were a teen? or If you are still a teen what new genres are you in love with currently?


I've always loved reading, basically ever since I learned how to, I've been reading whatever I find.
I'm still technically a teen (I'll be nineteen next tuesday) BUT I can say my reading habits have been multiplied times 203404 ever since I got into Med School,
I read A LOT school stuff + I read A LOT of books for pleasure = I am really busy ALL the time.



As of my favorite genre, I don't know, I love everything Young Adult :)

It's that time of the week we all love... Follow Friday!
a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee and Alison at Alison Can Read (:
 
 
This week's question:
 
Q. Talk about the book that most changed or influenced your life (was it a book that turned you from an average to avid reader, did it help you deal with a particularly difficult situation, does it bring you comfort every time you read it?).
 
 
A book that changed my life (and still does it) is of course The Bible.
 
And a book that influenced me,
well that would be The Mediator series by Meg Cabot.
Before I read that series, I read a lot of books BUT when I read the Mediator, I fell in love with books.
 
It opened my eyes to this world called Young Adult literature. I didn't know teenagers could be so cool, and that someone might go through the same stuff as me. I was a goner, those books changed my perception of life. I re-read them all the time.
 
 I particularly remember when the swine flu chaos started...
I was in Mexico at the time (where it was supposed to had originated) so the goverment made everyone stay at home for a week, trying to stop the virus from spreading,
I remember staying in my room all the time, reading those books and thinking "well, if I'm gonna die, at least I'll go happy" (:
 


I even had some dreams where I was kissing Jesse



(Major Character aka HOTTEST MAN NOT ALIVE) and in my dreams we were wearing surgical masks, kinda like this:

This week's question: 
Q. Name 3 authors that you would love to sit down and spend an hour or a meal with just talking about either their books or get advice on writing from?
 


1. MEG CABOT.
She's funny and witty and knows everything there is to know about pop culture. Plus she's write tons of fabulous books, most of them New York Times bestsellers, and she's traveled too! I bet she has fantastic stories to tell!.
Author of The Princess Diaries,
 The Mediator series <3 and The Vanished series <3



2. STEPHANIE PERKINS.
She just seems like such a nice girl! like she could be anyone's bestfriend, and so down to earth even if she has an incredibly famous book out and one of the most anticipated books for this year.



3. COURTNEY SUMMERS.
She is incredibly random! I love random people and in her blog she can be talking about her book one minute and the next she launches into a story about Volcanoes and zombies and squirrels and japanesse horror movies :S and let's face it, we all like people with entretaining conversations, she's def one of them!
Author of Some Girls Are <3 and Cracked Up To Be <3


4. ALLY CARTER.
I'm sooo sorry I forgot her! she's awesomesauce! I loooove her! her books are all about empowering girls and in her stories they all go kicking butt around the world without needing a boy to give them a reason to live. AND she's incredibly helpful and informative in her blog, thanks Ally!
 Author of The Gallagher Girls series <3
and Heist Society <3 and Uncommon Criminals I recently reviewed here ;)
