Reader Confession Tag

I discovered this book tag through the blog Rums the Reader and thought it looked like a lot of fun. I’m not sure who the creator of it is, so if you do, let me know in the comments!

Let’s get right into it!

---

Have you ever damaged a book?

I’m sure I have, although it’s never been intentional. Even when I was a kid I refused to write in or dog-ear my books. I’ve always considered books to be precious.

---

Have you ever damaged a borrowed book?

No, at least not that I can think of. When I borrow something from someone I’m going to try my best to take care of it, especially if it’s a book!

---

How long does it take you to read a book?

Not too long. I’m a pretty fast reader, so as long as I have time to read I can usually finish a 500-page book in a day or two.

---

Book that you haven’t finished?

There’s not a single book that I haven’t finished, but there is a series. I read the first of three volumes of Outlaws of the Marsh, and I fully intend to read the next two. I just don’t know when I’ll get around to it.

Hyped or popular books that you didn’t like?

These are all books that were super hyped up, that I really did not like. Click the links to read my reviews:

• To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before by Jenny Han
• The Afterlife of Holly Chase by Cynthia Hand
• Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur
• Echo North by Joanna Ruth Meyer
• The Silver Linings Playbook by Matthew Quick

---

Is there a book you wouldn’t tell anyone you were reading?

I’m not sure. Maybe some smutty romance? I tend to be really open with what I’m reading though.

---

How many books do you own?

Oh my gosh, I have absolutely no idea. If I had to make an estimate I’d put it at somewhere between 400 and 600.

---

Are you a fast or slow reader?

Fast. Not as fast as my mother was, which was mind-boggling (she could read three or four books in a single day and retain everything), but I can finish a medium-length book in a day or two.

---

Do you like to buddy read?

Yes, yes, yes! It’s not something that I get to do very often, but when I have buddy read books in the past I’ve loved it. It always makes reading a more intimate and special experience.

---

If you were only allowed to own one book, what would it be and why?

The Lord of the Rings. It’s a long, epic fantasy series, and I’ve already read it multiple times and have always loved it more and more each time.
