10 Bookish Questions: ‘The Last Book I…’
I discovered this fun post on Shelley’s blog, I Write, I Read, I Review, and thought I’d give it a go.
1. The last book I gave up on.That was a long time ago, and I can’t even remember the name of the book! It was something like White Rose, a historical saga, and I usually love those, but could I get into it? Nope!
2. The last book I re-read. I have to say, woth all the books on my TBR pile it is not often that I reread books, but one I remember rereading was My Sweet Audrina by Virginia Andrews, and of course, the countless picture books I love to read to my class at school!
3. The last book I bought. The Cactus by Sarah Haywood because I liked the cover!
4. The last book I said I read but actually didn’t. Honestly, I don’t think I have ever done that… I just say ” No, haven’t read that…I’ll put it on my TBR pile!
5. The last book I wrote in the margins. Nope, sorry, I can’t do that! I can’t write in books I love! Probably the last would be my A-Level texts for English because I had to!!! That would be Hamlet and Rosencrantz and Guildenstein Are Dead!
6. The last book I had signed. I think the last book I had physically signed by the author was Sacha Black’s guide to creating Superbad Villains! But that was 2 years ago! Since then though I have received books in the post from special authors, that have had lovely messages written in them for me.
7. The last book I lost. I don’t think I have really lost books, but they have in the past been donated to charity, when I haven’t had space for more, they the regret kicks in…
8. The last book I had to replace. Continuing from the last question…
I think some were my childhood favourites by Enid Blyton, like the Mallory Towers and St Claires series. I bought them again!
9. The last book I argued over. I don’t think I have ever argued over a book! But I have found certain ones hard to read, that have been recommended to me by others. I just swallow it and carry on with the next good read!
10. The last book I couldn’t find. A book you can’t find? Do you not know about Amazon and Ebay?? I think I have always managed to find books I wanted to read, and if I wasn’t having much luck, then I would always find another book to distract my search!
If you want to have a go, you can answer the book tag questions too!

I put this in “holds” and now it’s too late and too long to answer it. I’ll try to “do better by you” in the coming year! LOL I did enjoy reading your answers.

Enjoyed this, Ritu. I fell in love with Australian author, Margaret Way and determined to collect all her books. I haunted the secondhand bookstore in our small town, searched Amazon once personal computers became a thing (yes, I’m that old, lol) and then heard about Ebay. I found every last one and have them still on my reread shelf 🙂

Sometimes you just have to do that for certain authors!

Interesting answers, Ritu. Greg and I argue about books all the time. Today we argued over which Agatha Christie is the best. I said Murder on the Orient Express and he said The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. He is going through all my Agatha Christie books like a hot knife through butter; read two today.

All your Bitmojis are great, but the last one with the mushroom remembers me on a shoe box in the past. Near the same mushroom wonderful sketched elfes and caterpillars too.
