Follow Friday #21 / Book Blogger Hop #21



Q. How has your reading habits changed since you were a teen?

Well, not much I don't think. Although I would say I read more YA now than I did then as I concentrated on the classics a lot in my mid-late teens. I have always read a lot since I was a child, but I think I had more time for it back then than I do now. I wish I had more reading time again - but then I wish I had more time for a lot of things! Such is life. Still, I've read 92 books so far this year, which isn't bad going.
Book Blogger Hop

“Let’s talk crazy book titles! Highlight one or two titles in your personal collection that have the most interesting titles!

Hmm, let me see. Well, there's A Case of Exploding Mangoes by Hanif and The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by  Haddon. How's that?

Just to let you all know, I have a giveaway running for an e-book copy of Brightwing by Lee Sullivan. Check it out HERE.

  7. I actually read regularly now, compared to when I was a teen. Back then it was more of a necessity for high school rathen than for enjoyment.
