So, it's a well known fact I am a bookworm and in this post tonight I am going to go through some of my guilty pleasures of being a bookworm.
- Reading the last page. When Harry from 'When Harry met Sally', admits to reading the last page of every book he reads in case he dies before finishing a book. Sometimes I do that, if I am loving or hating the book. I've even skimmed a few pages ahead because I am too impatient.
- I judge a book by it's cover. I have been known to just buy a book because I really like the front cover and I think it would pretty on my bookshelf. Sometimes the book turns out to be so much better than the cover.
- I am known to stalk book authors. Finished a book and fell completely in loved it, does the author have a twitter account? FANTASTIC!
- I spend far too much time in Waterstones. Is there a Waterstones in America? But it is like the hugest bookshop franchise in the UK. The bigger the shop is the better! I don't intend to leave after an hour.
- I tend to run my fingers through pages: It's soothing! Enough said.
- I will read a few pages of a book and then decide against buying the book. When I am in a bookshop, I will read at least five pages of a book and if I get this gut feeling that I will enjoy it, I will go through the painful choice of buying it or not. Most of the time it is at the end of month and I have to wait until payday.
- Saying that! I have been known to use the last of my money on books.
- #bookstagram and #bookwoom are saved trends on my Tumblr and Instagram account. And sometimes I spend more time look at book pictures than actually reading a book.
- I've watched the film before reading the book: The time travellers Wife, Twilight, Divergent and yes I hate to say it, but I watched Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone before reading the series.
- I grow too fond of the characters and yes I will cry, fall in love and become obsessed with the character
