Lyssa's novel ideas

 

BOOKLET OR TOME? Booklet, I guess? I read a lot of books in the 250-350 page range, so I couldn't really call that a tome . . .

 

PRE-OWNED OR NEW?  Pre-owned.  I actually get my books new, pre-owned, and from the library. However, lately I've become addicted to Half-Price Books and have been getting more and more books there, so I've got to say pre-owned.

 

HISTORICAL FICTION OR FANTASY?  Historical fiction.  Here I would say I read both, but I probably read more historical fiction, especially Christian fiction.  Especially historical books dealing with Quakers, Shakers, etc.

 

HARDCOVER OR PAPERBACK?  Paperback for many reasons.  They are cheaper, easier to stick in my purse, more of them fit on a shelf, etc.

 

FUNNY OR SAD? Funny. Again, I would read both, but I read a ton of cozy mysteries which tend to be funny.

 

DO YOU PREFER READING IN SUMMER OR IN WINTER? Winter. I really read all year round, but I will say winter since there is less temptation to go outside and do something besides read.

 

CLASSICS OR MAINSTREAM?  Mainstream. This one was pretty easy, I rarely read classics.  Whatever that says about me . . .

 

GUIDEBOOK OR FICTION?   Fiction, no question.  I rarely read non-fiction, just the occasional travel guide or biography.

 

CRIME NOVEL OR THRILLER? Crime Novel - I assume by this they mean mystery, which is my favorite genre.  I do read thrillers as well though. :)

 

E-BOOK OR PRINT EDITION?  Print edition, but I do have quite a few ebooks waiting to be read.

 

COLLECTING OR CLEARING OUT?   Collecting, I am without a doubt a book hoarder and have over 1,000 physical books at my house.  Yikes!

 

INTERNET OR BOOKSTORE? Bookstore.  Browsing Barnes & Noble or HPB is one of my favorite activities. I do buy some books online, but the majority at a bookstore.

 

BACKLIST OR NEW PUBLICATION?  New publication.  I really like to keep up with the new releases, but then I get a pile of them going, so I guess they become a backlist . . .

 

BEST OR BAD SELLER?  Best seller.  I do have a bunch of indie books that I got for free for Kindle, but really haven't gotten around to reading them yet.

 

COOKBOOK OR BAKING BOOK? Cookbook, although I really don't cook.  I like the 3 or 4 ingredient cookbooks!

I'll just tag a couple of people who hopefully haven't gotten this yet.  Tag, you're it!
