Would You Rather Book Tag

Would You Rather Book Tag

I came across this tag recently and I really loved it, so I decided to do it myself. The tag was created by RayKayBooks, so be sure to check them out!

1. Read only trilogies or stand-alones?

This is quite an easy question for me. I prefer stand-alones. Although I've read my fair share of trilogies, I find myself more and more reluctant to begin new ones.

2. Read only female or male authors?

I would go with male authors, only because many of my favourite authors, in general, are men.

3. Shop at bookshops or Amazon?

Bookshops. There can never be any kind of comparison between browsing actual shelves of books to find the one you want and browsing a web page.

4. All books become movies or TV shows?

I like movie adaptations. Even though movies normally don't include everything from the book (and it's impossible to do so), I like to see the director's view on it. Luckily, many of my favourite classics are turned into tv movies and I enjoy them immensely. I don't have a problem with mini-series, but when the tv show tends to be too long, I  get tired of it.

5. Read 5 pages per day or 5 books per week?

Some books are easy to read, so the answer would be 5 books per week. But some books need you to relax and think about them and so in that case it would be 5 pages per day. Weighing those two option, I think I'm inclined to answer 5 books per week because I cannot possibly imagine how I could manage with only 5 pages per day.

6. Be a professional reviewer or author?

The truth is that I used to write short stories and poems and I have begun writing a novel, but I can't seem to finish it. So, I would rather be a professional reviewer. 

7. Only read your Top 20 favourite books over and over or always read new ones that you haven't read?

Only read new ones, that way I will create a new Top 20 list! Although I'll miss my favourite books so much!

8. Be a librarian or a bookseller?

Both of those options sound very attractive to me. I like to talk about books and recommend new ones, so I'll think I'd choose to be a librarian.

9. Only read your favourite genre or every other genre except your favourite?

The problem with this question is that I don't have just one favourite genre. When I read only one genre for some time I tend to want to read something entirely different next. But I would only rather read my favourite genre since I can't imagine my life without fantasy. 

10. Only read physical books or ebooks?

Ebooks have offered me practicality, my kindle never leaves my bag (and the last year I've been moving a lot), but I would rather read only physical books. 


So, this was the Would You Rather Book Tag. Feel free to tag yourselves, I'd be interested in reading your answers!

  1. I would love to be a librarian, it would probably be my dream job! I'm a pretty fast reader, so I definitely read 5 books per week. I have a problem lol.

    1. That's right! How can anyone stop at 5 pages per day? It's impossible!

  3. We seem to agree on many of these questions! I love the fact that I can carry so many books on my iPad, but I still love me a physical copy!

    1. Yes, ebooks has this advantage, although thay don't compare to the physical copies! I mean, the sensation of turning the pages, what can beat that?

  4. I've seen this tag bouncing around on booktube and the blogosphere and it always seemed pretty interesting. I loved all your answers, especially the one to number five, I had never really thought about that question in that way before. I think we seem to agree on all of the others. I really enjoyed your answers to this tag!

  7. Oh, this seems like a fun one to try out. Guess what I will be doing this coming week.

    I also loved your answers, there are a few I would agree on with you. I think 5, 7 and 9 will be the hardest to answer for me. It will take me some time to come up with an answer that I feel is right for me.
