Bookish Naughty Or Nice Tag (Blogmas #10)

Hello everyone,

It is time for a festive tag! Thank you so much to Misty for tagging me for this one. I have enjoyed reading these posts, so am looking forward to answering the questions!

RULES

• Tag & link the person who tagged you
• Tag and link me/this post – Jenn
• Tick/cross off the ones you’ve done
• Tag another 10 people!

1. Received an ARC and not reviewed it  

I don’t actually use NetGalley (I plan to start soon), so have hardly read any ARCs. But I have written reviews for each of the few free copies I have received this year.

2. Have less than 60% feedback rating on Netgalley

This one does not apply to me because as stated above, I don’t use NetGalley yet!

3. Rated a book on Goodreads and promised a full review was to come on your blog (and never did) ✅

In July I read a book called The Missy Chronicles and reviewed it on Goodreads. I promised to post a longer review on my blog, but never did!

4. Folded down the page of a book

No I never do this. 🙂

5. Accidentally spilled on a book

No. I often have a cup of tea with me while I read, but I don’t think any of it has escaped on to the pages of a book!

6. DNF a book this year ✅

I hardly ever DNF books, in the hope that it would get better. But I did do it once this year. The characters were unlikable and I really didn’t like the writing style.

7. Bought a book purely because it was pretty with no intention of reading it

When I buy a book I always intend to read it, so no.

8. Read whilst you were meant to be doing something else (like homework)

I don’t think so. I read as often as I can, but not really to procrastinate!

9. Skim read a book ✅

I usually like to take in each and every word, but there were a couple of books this year that I found uninteresting and ended up skim reading some passages.

10. Completely missed your Goodreads goal

I managed to pass my reading target a while ago. I set myself a target of 45 books, which I thought was ambitious at the time, but am almost finished on No. 60.

11. Borrowed a book and not returned it

I have always returned books, although I have been close to missing one or two library deadlines!

12. Broke a book buying ban

I don’t set myself book buying bans, although I do take care before spending too much!

13. Started a review, left it for ages then forgot what the book was about ✅

I had this problem a lot at the start of the year and it made writing the reviews a lot more difficult! For that reason I now try to write reviews ASAP after finishing the book.

14. Wrote in a book you were reading ✅

I did a buddy read in the summer where we decided to annotate the book. That was an exception – I don’t usually like to write in books.

15. Finished a book and not added it to your Goodreads

No, I update my Goodreads regularly and make sure I remember to add each book.

16. Borrowed a book and not returned it to a friend

I don’t borrow books from my friends, only the library 🙂

17. Dodged someone asking if they can borrow a book

Nobody has asked me if they could borrow one of my books, so no.

18. Broke the spine of someone else’s book

No! I would never be so cruel!

19. Took the jacket off a book to protect it and ended up making it more damaged

I often remove the jacket from a book, but I haven’t damaged any of them afterwards!

20. Sat on a book accidentally

No. Luckily I have avoided that!
