Long Time No Vox

Sorry about my lack of blogging here, I've been meaning to but I've just been busy and honestly? I use Live Journal a lot more *blush*

So to make up for my slacking off, here is a meme I found interesting:

Romance Meme

Contemporary, Historical, or Paranormal?

Contemporary and then historical, in that order. I've never read a paranormal romance and I can't say that I'm really that interested in one :S

Mass market always. They are cheaper and I like the size as well. Trade paperback are more expensive and hardcovers are super expensive in Canada.

Heyer or Austen?
Um, hello? I'm an Austen fiend in book and movie form. I love all things Austenite.

Amazon or Brick and Mortar?
Never been to Brick and Mortar so Amazon obviously.

Barnes & Noble or Borders?
Don't have these in Canada so I'll say Chapters.

Woodiwiss or Lindsay?
I read a Lindsay once and it was very cliche, not that most romances aren't. Never read Woodiwiss.

First romance novel you ever remember reading?
Danielle Steel's Season of Passion.

Alphabetize by author Alphabetize by title or random?
By author because I'm an anal librarian :)

Keep, Throw Away or Sell?
I always keep every book I buy. I'm a book and movie pack rat.

Read with dustjacket or remove it?
Read with it.

Sookie Stackhouse or Anita Blake?
I've heard of Anita Blake, but never read her stuff. Never even heard of Sookie Stackhouse.

Stop reading when tired or at chapter breaks?
I usually stop at chapter or page breaks. It's easier to find your spot then.

“It was a dark and stormy night?” or ?“Once upon a time”?
It was a dark and stormy night.

Crusie or SEP?
Crusie. I love Crusie :) I think she's funny and a great writer.

Buy or Borrow?
Buy, but lately I've been borrowing from the library. It's just easier and less expensive.

Buying choice: Book Reviews, Recommendation or Browse?

Most of the time I browse the stacks.

Tidy ending or Cliffhanger?
Tidy, always tidy. Real life is messy, I like things tidied up in my books.

Morning reading, Afternoon reading or Nighttime reading?
Afternoon and nighttime reading. I love reading before I go to sleep.

Series or standalone?
Usually standalone books. It's hard to stay focused on a series I find.

Favorite book of which nobody else has heard?
Hmmm.... I can't say there are a lot I read that no one else has heard of. I'm more of a mainstream gal myself. :)
