Follow Friday (#3)

Feature & Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read where you meet and follow different bloggers.

Question of the Week: What's the craziest thing you've ever done to get your hands on a particular book?

Hmm, that's a tough one! I don't think I have, really...I mean, I pre-order a lot of stuff...not that anyone really goes "Oh wow, know what is super crazy? That girl, Nina, who pre-ordered this book online! What was she thinking?" I mean, I'm only fifteen, so I haven't really been able to go to any Harry Potter midnight selling events, unfortunately.

I know that the other day when I bought Torn by Cat Clarke the lady at the counter said "You do know I only put that on the shelf about two minutes ago?" - but I wasn't to know that. I know I preordered The Fault In Our Stars and Beautiful Chaos and Destined literally months before it even came out...but again with the whole preordering thing...isn't that crazy...

In terms of things associated to books, last year my teacher gave me an award saying "The Most Likely To Own A Bookstore/Become A Librarian"...gosh, I'm not really that crazy, am I?

Anyway; leave me a comment, prove that you're crazier than me (not that that is a particularly difficult task.)

  1. Haha, you'd rock that Bookstore. Though if I had one I'd probably file for bankruptcy, I'd be keeping a copy of every book possible probably, lol.

    Following you back, thanks for stopping by, have a great weekend.

  4. Maybe one day you will have an absolutely crazy experience tracking down a book! I am on the same page, never really did anything that extreme. But I think the fact we even buy books might seem crazy to some! New follower. Love your reviews. Check out my FF! (Nikki - imaginativeadventure.blogspot.com)

  7. Haha great story! Don't worry, you're not crazy at all. Crazy is a lot worse than that, and I'm sad to say that I might be one of them...

    Thanks for the follow, I'm following you back!
