The summer has always been a hard time for me as a blogger. I hate being inside. I want to be outside doing things and enjoying the weather because it’s my favorite kind of weather and summer always has great activities to take part in! I feel so unmotivated to sit and blog when I could be hiking or at an outside flea market or laying by the pool. Not only that but I came off a really big, weird blogging slump where I got so discouraged with how serious everything was becoming that I feel like I’m JUST getting back into the groove and I’m feeling like I want to get back to the basics of what I love about all of this: the fun of it all!
So I decided for the next few Fridays I just want to have some fun and just talk about books in non-serious ways and let you guys get to know me a little better! Feel free to join me(and link back) if you are feeling like you want to let down your metaphorical blogging hair and do something silly to relieve some pressure off your blogging shoulders as summer starts to wind down.
You all know I love surveys since I’ve hosted the annual End of Year Book Survey for the past 3 years and plan to again this year. BUT back in the day I was a Xanga and Myspace addict and I used to do ALL OF THE SURVEYS. A popular one was the A to Z survey with questions corresponding every letter of the alphabet about things like your age and the last person you talked on the phone with. I decided I wanted to to a bookish A to Z so I decided to create one myself!
Author you’ve read the most books from:
Judy Blume (Want an easy way to figure this out if you have Goodreads and keep good track of your stuff? Go to your account, hit “my books”and on the left hand side under your shelves you will see “most read authors”)
Best Sequel Ever:
Though The Ever Night by Veronica Rossi. I LIKED UTNS but TTEN blew me away.
Currently Reading:
Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead (FINALLY..ok people??)
Drink of Choice While Reading:
Tea! I really like all sorts of green and white teas and always down for recommendations of new teas to try!
E-reader or Physical Book?
I’m definitely a physical book girl but love my Kindle for the gym, review copies and for vacation so I can have lots of options with me.
Fictional Character You Probably Would Have Actually Dated In High School:
Cricket from Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins. I definitely went for the nice, kind-of-into-dorky-things boys in high school. Also I had a thing with MY boy next door that never blossomed.
Glad You Gave This Book A Chance:
Hidden Gem Book:
Important Moment in your Reading Life:
Discovering Goodreads. Without Goodreads I would have never started reading again. I was a huge reader but then fell off the map in high school/some of college. Goodreads led me to book blogs and here we are!
Just Finished:
Not A Drop To Drink by Mindy McGinnis
Kinds of Books You Won’t Read:
I’m trying to get better about shutting myself off to some genres (you can help me!) without trying them but I’m certain I won’t ever read any erotica. It’s just not my thing. I don’t mind smutty but not super explicit.
Longest Book You’ve Read:
I Know This Much Is True by Wally Lamb (897 pages)
** easy way to find this out. Go to your Goodreads “read” list, don’t scroll down but where you are on the screen there will be this little tab on the bottom that lets you choose how you want to scroll or how many books you want display. There is also a sort option with a drop down and you can sort by page.
Major book hangover because of:
Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson
Number of Bookcases You Own:
4. Two are really tall and then the other two are smaller. I’m out of room so I have piles here PLUS I stored some books on bookshelves at my stepdad’s house.
One Book You Have Read Multiple Times:
The Giver by Lois Lowry — definitely the book I re-read the most ever. I don’t reread often but when I do it’s been just one re-read. The Giver I just kept re-reading over and over again as a kid.
Preferred Place To Read:
In the tub. It really is my favorite place to relax and read. Also, in bed!
Quote that inspires you/gives you all the feels from a book you’ve read:
“Or maybe it’s not a miracle. Maybe this is just life. When you open yourself up to it. When you put yourself in the path of it. When you say yes.” — Just One Day by Gayle Forman. That book actually kind of changed my life and made me say YES to things I had been thinking about.
Reading Regret:
I regret not having read Harry Potter when it came out. I WANT TO BE A PART OF THAT CLUB WHO GREW UP WITH IT! You did see my secret project, yes? I was going to list a book I regretted reading but NOT reading this was a bigger regret.
Series You Started And Need To Finish(all books are out in series):
I have many but I’d say Jessica Darling series. SHOCKING I haven’t finished it considering how much I love it, huh? I’ve read the first three books but just can’t bear to finish it!!
Three of your All-Time Favorite Books:
The Book Thief by Markus Zusack, Just One Day by Gayle Forman, Pride & Prejudice
Unapologetic Fangirl For:
Trish Doller. Her debut, Something Like Normal, is pretty popular in the book blogosphere and one of my favorite contemporaries but Trish deserves so much more praise and I will shout it to everyone who will listen!!
Very Excited For This Release More Than All The Others:
Isla and the Happily Ever After by Stephanie Perkins. PLEASE GET IN MY HANDS, book!
Worst Bookish Habit:
Tricky! What I deem as my worst bookish habit or what you all would? haha. I already laid out my book crimes and you guys cringed so I’ll just go with what I deem it to be…overdue library books! ALWAYS. I can never get it there on time!
X Marks The Spot: Start at the top left of your shelf and pick the 27th book:
John Belushi Is Dead by Kathy Charles
Your latest book purchase:
Crown of Embers by Rae Carson. I loved The Girl of Fire of Thorns and got book three for review and then I saw this one was on sale!
ZZZ-snatcher book (last book that kept you up WAY late):
The Program by Suzanne Young. I was going to put it down before bed but was like “what’s one more chapter?” and then uh oh…it’s 3am.
Ahh now I’m going to go put on some Dashboard Confessional and write my most emo post I can that is so perfectly pointed and my meaning is thinly veiled. Oh wait, I’m here…not actually in 2004. Doing a survey just TOOK ME BACK.
I’d love to see yours if you do it too — link back to me and then leave your link in the comments so I can come visit yours!
Happy Friday, loves!! Do something fun tonight!
Jen @ Pop! Goes The Reader says
Words cannot express how much I love the idea for this post, Jamie! It’s such a great way to do something different and I continually marvel at how you’re able to consistently come up with such creative ideas for posts 🙂 If I have the time this weekend I’m going to try my best to complete this survey myself because some of the prompts really made me think!
Thank you so much for making sure that blogging is fun for all of us 😀
Jamie says
Thank you, Jen! I love me some surveys and had fun coming up with the End of Year one so I figured I’d put my brain to the test with an A to Z since no bookish ones exist (that I could find!)!
katy says
I love this! It was fun to read! I loved doing surveys on Xanga and Myspace so much!
Jamie says
It was so addictive back then, right??
Nikki H @ Take Me Away... says
I LOVE this! It was definitely fun to read!
Great post!
Jamie says
Thanks Nikki!
Kara @ Great Imaginations says
I read in bed and the tub the most too. With a Lush Bubble Bar or Bath Bomb, life is divine. Also, I just bought Bunheads this week too. I am awesome!
Jamie says
OMG I looooove the Lush stuff! That’s one of the first things I’m going to buy when I get a job and I’m going to march over to my stepdad’s house and hog the bathroom for a few hours in his brand new tub I showed you!!
Angelica @ Paperback Princess says
Can you girlies believe I don’t have a bath tub? Only a shower which is currently not functioning…well only cold water 🙁 I love the hotel bath tubs and I always bring my Lush bath bombs when I stay at hotels because it’s the only time I get to enjoy baths…oh bliss just thinking about it 😀
Audrey @ The Book Analyst says
This was so much fun! I had a really good time reading through this survey and I’m surprised you came up with so many different options!
Sharon @ The Book Barbies says
I love this so much! I honestly miss surveys like this sometimes. I used to do them ALL THE TIME on my LiveJournal. And on email chains, back even further, haha. I will definitely be joining you in this!
Love reading your answers. 🙂 HOORAY for finally reading Vampire Academy! I hope you love it!
Bunheads! That’s such a great book!
I really need to read The Giver! I’m so behind.
I wish I would have read Harry Potter growing up, too! Unfortunately, I wasn’t allowed to. The very end of my freshman year of college, I fixed it, though! Devouring these books in 2 weeks, never mind finals, haha.
Aw, man! I’m so sad I missed your Courting the Romance Genre post! I totally would have voted. There are some FANTASTIC books listed on there! I’ll be looking forward to seeing the results. 🙂
Something Like Normal! ♥ ISLAAAAA.
Ahaha, love your X and Z categories! Very creative.
Jamie says
YES I miss stuff like this too! I used to be on Livejournal too and do them there! AND OMG THE EMAIL CHAINS lolol.
And thank you…X and Z were total bitches to figure out but I prevailed!
Scott Pilgrim says
This looks like a ton of fun! Could I do this on my own blog?
-Scott Reads It!
Jamie says
For sure! Just link back! I’m excited to see your answers 🙂
Christina (A Reader of Fictions) says
Okay, so, confession, I prefer to be inside. I hate being hot and I am terrified of bees. Like, I’ll be all “oh reading outside would be awesome,” but then I go outdoors for about five minutes and a bee comes by and I go racing inside yelling. Maybe there aren’t as many bees and things where you live.
OMG. I am doing this A-Z survey thing. This is BOSS. I want to live in your brain so I can know what it’s like to be so creative.
Quick note: I refuse to finish the Jessica Darling series. I loved the first two, but I refuse to watch it descend into a ridiculous on again/off again relationship, because I ship them so hard and it would make me hate them and I can’t.
Huh, Penguin still hasn’t sent out Isla, have they? And it was on the form like 8 months ago. WEIRD PENGUIN IS WEIRD.
Jamie says
HA YES. I remember us having that discussion about outside and bees and how nobody understands our fears. Minus bees and snakes, I LOVE OUTSIDE. We do have lots of bees and bugs here but maybe less than you?
Can’t wait to see YOUR answers!
I’m so scared to read JD, Christina! I really am!! I want to keep shipping themmm!
I might faint if they send it to me. I requested it sooo we will see!
Anna says
Hello, Jamie! I wanted to ask you, can I do this awesome survey in my blog with your post and name linked on the top as creator ? I really liked this idea!!!
Thanx.
Asti (A Bookish Heart) says
Ooh I love this! I used to fill out these surveys ALL the time! Of course, it got repetitive after a while, but it never really slowed me down. I definitely plan on filling these out because it’s been so long. I’ll try to remember to come back and share my link, I’m thinking of having it go up next Friday since I don’t like double-posting.
But yay for The Book Thief! I LOVED that book! How do you feel about it becoming a movie? I’m slightly torn. I just hope it does it justice (and omg, I already know I’m going to cry…) And yes! I love reading in the tub too. Sooooo relaxing. And I can’t even imagine a childhood with Harry Potter. But hey, better late than never! I hope you enjoy reading the series!
Judith says
Can you believe I’ve not read TTEN yet? I loved UTNS when it came out and I do own TTEN but I just… haven’t read it yet? It’s stupid, because I love all the characters, and Roar most of all. I need to read and reread this series soon.
YOU’RE READING VAMPIRE ACADEMY EEP! This makes me very happy.
Ooh Cricket <3 I adore him. Also, Bunheads is a wonderful book! SCS also gave me a massive book hangover (I drowned my tears in the pool on vacation) and that quote from Just One Day is just beautiful.
Yay secret project! I can't wait! I also need to has Isla RIGHT NOW. It will be delightful <3
For real, I love this post. Yay surveys! I just answered the questions 😀
Ginger @ GReads! says
You know I love your surveys!
Here’s mine: http://www.greadsbooks.com/2013/08/an-to-z-bookish-survey.html
Surprisingly, top 3 favorite books of all time was the hardest for me! I feel like my favorites are always shifting. It’s hard to choose an “all time” favorite.
Kaley @ Books Etc says
What a fun idea!! I will be completing this today, I think! Thanks for always having awesome posts 🙂
Sharon @ The Book Barbies says
I did it! 😀

I’ll definitely be doing this survey over the weekend. 🙂
Alexia @ Adventures in Reading says
Okay I am going to have to do this for next Friday’s book related post. Today I posted my top five favorite bookish quotes (two of the quotes could be a bit spoilery since you haven’t finished HP yet” But this is an awesome post.
Here’s my Friday Musings post

Meaghan @ Feeling a Little Bookish says
I love this post! I also posted on my blog http://bookworm-meags222.blogspot.ca/2013/08/a-to-z-bookish-survey.html. We have very similar reading habits I would say. Also, I love the Dashboard Confessional reference at the bottom. So emo but I was definitely in love circa 2004.
Allison (Allure of Books) says
HA! I’m with you on the firing up Dashboard Confessional (or Brand New!) and writing emo Xanga posts circa early 2000s.
Erica says
This makes me wish I had a blog so I could do it too!
Jessica @ Books: A true story says
I loved reading this! It’s such a fun idea. That’s so cool that Goodreads got you back into reading. It’s definitely one of my favorite social media sites 🙂
I had so much fun filling out my own 🙂

Oh my gosh, what a fun post! I’m such a sucker for surveys like this, so I hope you don’t mind if I follow suit on my blog at some point.
I’m glad you gave Cinder a chance too — I love that book! And I’m excited for you to read The Crown of Embers. Fire and Thorns is one of my favorite YA series ever. Can’t wait for your review! 🙂
Abria @ Read. Write. Discuss. says
This was a lot of fun to do 🙂 Thanks

This was such a brilliant idea. I had so much fun with this.
ALSO YES READ CROWN OF EMBERS SOON. I wasn’t a huge fan of the first book, but CoE sold me on Rae Carson and the entire series.

I just finished re-watching the movies from beginning to end with my baby boy (never to early to expose him to good stories, right??) and fell in love with the story, the characters, everything all over again. Can’t wait for you to experience the magic.

I JUST Finished the Harry Potter series Sunday night.

Aubrey says
Thank you for such a wonderful idea. It allowed me and so many others to speak our minds via books.
Goodreads is such a blast. I feel like I am constantly recruiting people to go there, giving them the elevator speech of all the wonderful things it offers. I still haven’t read The Book Thief but I just watched the movie trailer for it and it’s making me step up my A-game and get to reading it. I have The Program on my to-read list because I like the concept and the ratings are very high so it’s great to hear that it was tough to put down.
Thanks for sharing and happy reading to you. I look forward to more that you share on your blog.
Cheers, Aubrey

Thanks for creating such a fun survey. I’m totally having myspace flashbacks haha. Anyways, thanks again for the bookish fun. 🙂

This survey was so fun!! I like to read in the tub too. I forgot to mention that when I did it. I am a big tea drinker too and almost always have a cup of tea with me at night when I am reading. I listened to The Program on audiobook and I think I was up until like 1am to finish listening to it. 🙂

Katie's Book Blog says
Aha, so you are the genius who invented this survey that has been doing the rounds! A great idea and a lot of fun. I’ve just answered it here: http://katiesbookblog.blogspot.co.uk/2013/09/a-z-bookish-survey.html
I see you’re reading “Tell the Wolves I’m Home” at the moment! I read it when it was first published a few months ago and it is AMAZING. I didn’t hear anything about it at the time – just picked it up ’cause it had a pretty cover and I kept coming back to it – but now word’s got out and everyone’s talking about it, YAY! I hope you love it too. It was exactly the book I needed to read when I did.

Oh boy. I’m mad I didn’t actually read your survey before I did my version of it. You’re formatting is so perdy.
I’m also a little sad I didn’t discover your blog during the summer… but *excuses*. I’m off to see your book crimes now. Ta~

Bev@My Reader's Block says
Jamie: Great A-Z survey! I have to admit, though, that the only book on your survey that I’ve read is The Book Thief (which I loved, btw). I found the survey through Adam at Roof Beam Reader and once I read your list and answers I just had to do my own (I cannot resist bookish things–whether it be a list or a survey or a reading challenge…I have got to do all the things!). I’ve linked back to you.
Jen K says
Found this at Roof Beam Reader – here’s my response.

Hi !
I’m a French bloger and I would like to do this fabulous tag. I will do it in English first, but can I translate it in French and do a French version to (in order to have “question” with the good letter) ? If it’s possible, thank you very much. If it’s not, never mind !
I hope your understand my English…

I recently found this survey via Adam of Roof Beam Reader. Usually I find these sorts of things less-than-interesting, but I really enjoyed reading the responses. You picked good questions! I posted mine a few days ago – the first survey I’ve completed! 🙂
Kelly says
I unearthed this from my drafts… a year and a half late (How did I even do that? I’m pretty sure I did housekeeping on my drafts between then and now. Oops) . So I updated it.
