βΒ Hi guys, I hope you’re having a great day. Today I bring you a fun book tag in which I’ve been tagged by the beautiful Meghan, of Meghan’s Whimsical Explorations & Reviews, check it out!, her blog is SO GOOD!πΒ
When I saw the tag and Meghan’s answers, I knew I had to do it myself, even though I take the risk of being embarrassed in public, I’ll do it anyway lol, It’s a very stormy day where I live and I really want to do something like this and talk a little with you, my loves. I hope you like it guys and decide to do it as well. Let’s start!β
The Rules
- Tag & link the person who tagged you.
- Tag and linkΒ JennielyβsΒ post, for sheβs love to read everyoneβs answers!
- Tick/cross off the ones youβve done.
- Tag another 10 people.
Received an ARC and not reviewed itΒ β
Of course I have ARCs, which I haven’t reviewed yet. But I never have accepted an ARC without intending to review it. One of my biggest achievements for the next year is to focus more on my ARCs, and although I’ve been doing a good job, I feel I could do better, so I’m committed to it πͺπ»
Have less than 60% feedback rating on Netgalley β
NO, and I don’t think I could have it and be calm about it. This year has been great in terms of my reviews for NetGalley I’ve been able to reach my goal of having a Feedback Ratio of 90% and still continue that way, so I’m very pleased with it. I’m trying to request books only if I DIE to read them, and it has worked well enough for me so far π
Rated a book on Goodreads and promised a full review was to come on your blog (and never did)β
I don’t think so, I try to think, but I’m sure that whenever I’ve promised a full review on the blog, has happened, and if you see a “REVIEW TO COME” mine at Goodreads, then shame on me πΒ . But honestly I don’t think so, I review the books immediately after I read them, I feel that it’s when I feel more inspired and my ideas are clearer, besides if I let the days pass then I’ll surely forget some details and hate that
Folded down the page of a book β
No, and there’s no way I can do it. I think it would hurt me to do it, I’m not that kind of person who feels comfortable folding pages or writing on them π«
Accidentally spilled on a bookΒ βοΈ
YES, I’ve been there and it’s no nice lol. Thank God it was just a little of water π
DNF a book this yearΒ βοΈ
Yes, I DNF just 1 book this year which is surprising, or at least it’s the only one I really don’t have intentions to try again. I think I read the beginning of another ones and then I felt that it wasn’t the moment so I put them down, but that kind of things happens and it’s not the same, you know?. For me when I decide to mark a book as DNF is because I really don’t intend to read it again, ever.
The book was The Hating Game by Sally Thorne, and I know, everyone loves it, but I just can’t pass the 100 pages, I think it’s not for me, I don’t like anything about this book π
Bought a book purely because it was pretty with no intention of reading it β
Never. I mean, I bought books for the cover, in fact it’s something I love doing and I’m not ashamed, but I always intend to read them π€
Read whilst you were meant to be doing something else (like homework) βοΈ
ALL THE TIME π€£
skim read a book β
To be honest, I don’t think I could do this, I have no idea even how other people do it. I guess it’s not my thing
Completely missed your Goodreads goal β
No, I’ve succeed! I’m very happy to have completed it, in fact I’ve already read 10 books more than what I pretended to read, so it was a successful year, and this has given me the confidence to add a higher number for the next year.
I always like to put a number which I feel comfortable with, even though I know I can read more than that, this way I don’t feel the pressure ππ»
Borrowed a book and not returned it to the library β
No, I don’t have the possibility of having a library nearby that has the kind of books that I read. The only one in my city has textbooks for school and those things, so nope
Broke a book buying banΒ β
No, here where I live the books are very expensive, so most of mine are in electronic format and some are also from Booky, when I have the possibility. So since I’ve never had the possibility of buying SO MANY books per month, I’ve never imposed myself a book buying ban
Started a review, left it for ages then forgot what the book was about β
Nope, as I said before I like to write my reviews immediately after reading the book, I can take a few days even a week to upload it to the blog, but I always write it immediately π»
Wrote in a book you were reading β
No, as I said before I don’t like doing it. But even so, I’ve seen some people writing on books or highlighting quotes from the book and I think it’s nice and special for that person so I respect it, but it’s not something I do π
Finished a book and not added it to your Goodreads β
No, never, I love using Goodreads so I’m always adding my books there π
Borrowed a book and not returned it to a friendΒ β
Not that I remember, my best friend also reads, but we don’t read the same genres so we don’t usually borrow books to each other. Although it could happen lol
Dodged someone asking if they can borrow a book β
Oh NEVER, I love lending my books, I’ve done it with my family but honestly most of my books are in English so that prevents me from doing it, since everyone here speaks Spanish. But if I had the possibility, I would do it
Broke the spine of someone elseβs book β
Never, but I’ve done this with my own books πͺ
Took the jacket off a book to protect it and ended up making it more damaged β
No, luckily this has never happened to me before
Sat on a book accidentally βοΈ
Yes!. This, in fact, happens to me often. Sometimes ,I’m choosing what to read, and I put the books on my bed and, you know, it just happens π
Final Score: 4/20
Well I think this means that I’m Nice ? LOL. It was super fun and I think it should be more Naughty for next year π Β
This looks fun!!! π€

Loved reading your answers! I also request few books from netgalley because I can’t handle those deadlines. I always handle my books with care while reading and I never folded a page or broke a spine in my life. And also No snacks or drinks for me while reading.

Thank you! I’m glad you’ve read them
Oh well, it usually happens with my paperbacks, sometimes I take them with me if I travel, and they just end up being damaged a bit on the edges. I try to be careful but sometimes it happens ππ
