A Dream and a Meme
I had a weird dream last night, but it had the GREATEST ending scene in it. Now if I could only find a story to go with it. And my apologies to all the SARAs who had to eat PBJ sandwiches on white when I invited them over because I didn't have anything else! (Another dream. Weird. I DREAMED about going grocery shopping. LAME!)
Colleen tagged me, so here goes!
Contemporary, Historical, or Paranormal?
Lately, paranormal. Usually contemporary. Historical, usually only if it’s someone I know.
Hardback or Trade Paperback or Mass Market Paperback?
I prefer mass market paperback. It's easier to transport and to hold.
Heyer or Austen?
Austen.
Amazon or Brick and Mortar?
I like Amazon because I can preorder. But I do love the feeling of being in a bookstore.
Barnes & Noble or Borders?
I like the feel of BN more. I don’t know what’s different – maybe it’s just that they were here first.
Woodiwiss or Lindsay?
I’ve only read Woodiwiss, and only one. Do I have to turn in my RWA membership now?
First romance novel you ever remember reading?
When I was young, my grandmother used to buy me the Janet Dailey Harlequins. I read all 50 states, I believe. Wish I still had that collection!
Alphabetize by author Alphabetize by title or random?
Random most of the time…when I get organized, I group books by author.
Keep, Throw Away or Sell?
Keep or trade. (Throw away???? EEEK!)
Read with dustjacket or remove it?
with dustjacket
Sookie Stackhouse or Anita Blake? I haven’t read either.
Stop reading when tired or at chapter breaks?
When tired, though I try to read till chapter breaks.
“It was a dark and stormy night” or “Once upon a time”?
Usually "It was a dark and stormy night"…but sometimes those "Once upon a time" stories get their own dark and stormy nights…
Crusie or SEP?
Crusie, though I love SEP, too.
Buy or Borrow?
Mostly I buy, sometimes trade.
Buying choice: Book Reviews, Recommendation or Browse?
I use book reviews for plot more than opinion. I usually go by recommendation, but I’ve been known to judge a book by its cover.
Tidy ending or Cliffhanger?
Tidy ending!
Morning reading, Afternoon reading or Nighttime reading?
All of the above! I love to take naps because I read first, and I always read before bed. A day without reading is like a day without sunshine.
Series or standalone? Stand alones. Do you know how FAR behind I am in JD Robb????
Favorite book of which nobody else has heard?
Winter Roses by Anita Mills. LOVE LOVE LOVE her.
I tag Trish, Natalie and Mary Beth!
