A self proclaimed mood reader takes a quiz to find out if she is indeed a mood reader.
Tag creator: Slanted Spines https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mhq-AXn3A0
Questions: 1. Do you consider yourself a mood reader?
-
Do you set TBR lists and do you stick to them?
-
Do books affect you emotionally? Does the mood of a book rub off on you?
-
When you’re feeling sad, what do you read? (Or do you not read when sad?)
-
Most often, do you use reading to escape, to learn, or to critically reflect?
-
What is a book that made you laugh out loud?
-
What is a book that has made you cry? Or, if you don’t cry, one that really moved you?
-
What is a book that you didn’t even know how you felt about?
-
Are you more likely to read on a sunny day or a cloudy day?
-
Do you usually “set the mood” when you read? Music, lights, smells, etc?
-
Can you leap from book to book or do you need buffer time between them?
Just a girl talking about books while waving her microphone around. Sorry about the audio :)
