This tag was created By Emily Jean over on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtbPL0s1t7E . I saw the tag on Ceri's blog at https://bookmarksandpostcardsblog.wordpress.com/
1) Big
A book you read when you were young that was intended for a more mature audience.
My dad read this to me as a bedtime story when I was about 7 and I loved him doing the voices! by ten I was reading them myself.
2) Forrest Gump
Books are like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're going to get. What book did you pick up not knowing anything about?
Generally I've read the blurb and quite often Goodreads reviews before I choose a book to read. I never know nothing about a book before I read it now so I'll pick one I grabbed on impulse from the library as a kid.
3) Sleepless in Seattle
Last book to keep you up late reading.
I can't stay up all night reading now or I feel terrible for days! Midnight is generally my cut off. The last book I literally stayed up reading to get it finished by 5am was this one.
4) Toy Story
A timeless book you plan to share with any offspring you create.
I can't stand kids so there will never be Chuckles offspring! I'm picking a book that kids will always get something out of. Yes it's Harry Potter!
5) You've Got Mail
A book you heard about on the Internet and where you heard about it from.
I first seen this book on Greg's site http://gregsbookhaven.blogspot.com/ and loved the cover. Despite being picky about YA, the dinosaurs won me over and I loved it!
6) Cast Away
If you could only bring one book to a deserted island what would it be?
Urg that's a bit mean! I guess I better pick my favourite ever book!
7) Cloud Atlas
What book did you have high expectations for that didn't quite meet them?
I don't know where to start with this one! So many fail to live up to expectations! I'm going to go with this one. I wanted to love, I was intrigued by the plot-and I hated it!
This is a fun tag. I think I might do this one :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm happily No Kids too!
Yea for no kids! *giggles* When I used to tell people I didn't want kids, I used to get really strange looks! It's like I'm some kind of weirdo for not wanting them!
DeleteThis tag looks fun! Not sure if I've seen Big but did enjoy the other Tom Hanks movies with the exception of Cloud Atlas. I wouldn't be able to choose one book to take with me on a deserted island, though.
ReplyDeleteI think I switched Cloud Atlas off after 20 minutes, it was so bad! I haven't see Cast Away but I loved Apollo 13! One book for a desert island is just mean!!!
DeleteWhat a fun tag! I'm making a note of this one so that I can do it later some time. Thanks. :D
ReplyDeleteI like these easy ones where the questions are quick and simple to get done!
DeleteI think I might be the only person to like Wicked. I don't stay up late reading anymore either, Chuckles. It has happened but not for a long time. I need my sleep :) Fun tag!
ReplyDeleteI do know a few people that liked it so you're not alone! The funny thing about it is people seem to love it or hate it. It does seem to divide the book community but as long as you enjoyed it, that's the important thing!
DeleteThis tag is so creative and funny. I LOVE IT!!
ReplyDeleteElle Inked @ Keep on Reading
It was a fun and quick tag to do!
DeleteThis tag is so much fun! I love Tom Hanks -- his movies always grab me!
ReplyDeleteI like him as an actor though Cloud Atlas was certainly not a favourite! I haven't seen a few of his films but just never seem to get round to it. I do plan to watch Sully and that Somali pirate one at some point.
DeleteWhat a fun tag. Thanks so much for sharing.
