Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee. It is an amazing and fun way to get to know a LOT about your other blogger friends. Hats off to Rachel for this mind-blowing meme and also the questions she comes up with every week. I am certain I will never stop posting this weekly meme. Its one of my most favorite!!
This week's question is---
Q) In light of the Summer Solstice. Also known as the Midsummer.....lets talk about faeries. What is your favorite fairy tale or story that revolves around fae?
I used to love reading fairy tales when I was a kid, as in I would read the same story everyday and never get fed up. Even now, occasionally, when I am bored with the usual books, I happen to read them for the fun of it. I remember that for my 9th birthday, my dad got me a customized copy of Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast in which instead of the main princess's name, my name was printed. I was overjoyed!! :D
But my favorite fairy tale would be Rapunzel. I adore that book!!!
As for a story that revolves around fae, there is one in particular written by Isobel Bird in the series called Circle of Three. I can't recall which book in the series because there are 15 books and I read them all some time ago. Oh wait!! I got it- In The Dreaming (#5) . I absolutely LOVED the series. You all should check it out.
A fab question once again. Thanks PJ! What about you?? Leave a link and I'll stop by. :D

Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee's View. Its a fun way to get to know more about fellow bloggers. Every week, a different question is chosen.
This week's question-
Q) Genre Wars!! What is your favorite genre and which book in that genre made it your favorite?
Umm....that's a really tough one. I like books of all genres but to choose any one best out of the lot, I would pick- PARANORMAL. Yes, I am another supernatural freak. I became a serious, obsessed fan after I saw The Van Helsing movie when I was in 6th grade. But that wouldn't answer the other part of the question as to which book got me hooked onto the genre. So........I guess I will give all the credit to R.L Stine partly and Twilight partly. I used to adore reading Goosebumps and Fear Street books (Still do!! but not the Goosebumps so much.) all the time. I recall getting so many books altogether from the library when I was a kid. But the thing is I can't actually call them "paranormal", so Twilight receives the rest- 50% - credit. Then there is also The Vampire Diaries series (DAMON!!! *sigh*) and The Vampire Academy series (Dimitri!!!) which will always ensure that I stick to the genre. :D :D
What about you?? Are you a Vampire-Werewolf fan like me??? Leave a link and I'll surely stop by. :)

Follow Friday is a weekly meme in which you answer a questions about yourself. Its a lovely way to get to know more about your fellow book bloggers.Its hosted by Parajunkee . Thanks PJ. You want to participate?? Head right over to her blog, follow the rules and leave your link in Mr.Linky.
This week's question is-
Q) How many books do you read in a week? And in what form do you read them, or listen to them?
Since I got an ereader, I have bought very few paperbacks or hardback copies.I mostly read a LOT of ebooks and a few paperbacks when I am able to get them from the library or from my friends. I usually read 2-3 books in a week. Never more because I always have tests/assignments and homework to do. I am in awe of those people who can finish reading a book in 2-3 hours in one sitting. I haven't yet been able to figure out how they do so? (very jealous :P) There have been week's when I hardly have read anything. So, yeah, it varies from week to week. And, no, I don't listen to audiobooks. I feel they spoil the idea of reading a book and getting deep into it, forming a relationship with the characters.
Love this question, now I can do some lovely RAK to all my blogger friends who have ereaders. I have been going around sending everyone messages asking if they read ebooks, now all I have to do is check their FF answer. Thanks a lot PJ for this wonderful question.
What's your answer?? Agree with me?? New to blogger?? I promise your gonna have a lot of fun.
Leave a link, my new friends!!

Follow Friday is a weekly meme by which we get to know more about new bloggers in the blogging world.Its hosted by Parajunkee.
This week's question is-
Q)Do you have anyone you can discuss books with IRL?Tell us about him/her.
I do have quite a few people with whom I can discuss about books,not many though.Among my friends I'm one of the very very few people who is obsessed with reading.
Firstly, I talk about books with my dad.He simply adores reading.You see,that's where I get the passion from.The slight problem is that he reads mainly classics and some other thriller novel.So yeah,those are the only two genres I can talk to him about.I don't blame him,it would be really weird to,one day,find him reading chick-lit.You get what I mean?
Secondly,mom.Finally somebody with whom I can discuss about anything and everything book related.Am I thankful to have a mom,who tries out all sorts of books or what!!She does read a lot of romance and suspense stuff.She's really fast in reading (something I'm not *green with envy*)
Thirdly,my friends Nikki,Shazzey,Sammy and Ashee.They are fine readers but not really the I-Can't-Live-Without-Reading type of people.And they also read all sorts of books.I get a lot of recommendations from them.Shazzey is the one who literally ran behind me to finish reading the Shopaholic Series (I'm still not done.Becky is so darn annoying with the whole repeating the same mistakes again and again thing.). The first three books in the series were an amazing read,so thanks Shazzey for the suggestion.
Boy that was a HUGE answer!!
What about you??I am really sorry to all my readers for this late FF post but I was away so couldn't post.

This weeks question is-
Q)Do you judge a book by its cover?
Do I judge a book by its cover??That would be a yes and a no.Yes because, books with fascinating covers are my first choice and preference. No because, even if I don't like the book cover I do glance at the synopsis and so if I like it, I tend to pick up the book.Picking up a book (for me) has three stages-
1.The cover should catch my eye.
2.The name should be catchy.
3.If 1 and 2 are not true for the book, then the synopsis should be an interesting one.
What about you??Don't forget to leave your link if I'm not following you yet.Once again I want to thank all the followers for all the kind comments and for taking the time to stop by my blog often.

This weeks questions-
Q)What is the book that you really don't want to admit to loving?
I believe that there is no book that I wouldn't want to admit to loving. If I love the book then I would say so, if not I would say otherwise. I feel that I shouldn't be ashamed to admit anything especially about books.

This weekly meme is hosted by Parajunkee.A fun way to meet book bloggers in the blogging world.
This weeks question is-----
Q)Inspired by the insane twitter trend of #100facts about me, give us five book related silly facts about you.
1.I always have to arrange my books in the bookshelf according to their size, if it is not placed accordingly then I get really irritated.
2.I get really paranoid to see folds and tears in a new book.
3.If I really like a book,then I can't do anything else except read till I'm done.I get really addicted.
4.I usually buy books that appeal to me at first sight.Otherwise I don't really feel like reading them.
5.I keep hop-skipping genre to genre all the time.I can't read more than 3-4 books of the same genre back to back.
Tell Me What You Think.And if I'm not following you, please leave your FF link.
