The Seven Deadly Sins of Reading Tag
Thank you to The Happy Typewriter for tagging me! So let’s get started!
Greed
Defined as: An intense and selfish desire for something.
What is your most expensive book?
Had to take a long and hard look at my bookshelf before I could answer this one. I think my most expensive book is a leather bound Norwegian edition of The Lord of The Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien.
*
Wrath
Defined as: Extreme anger.
What author do you have a love/hate relationship with?
For this one I would have to go for Haruki Murakami. He writes beautifully, but there are some of his books that I really don’t like and there are others that I love to bits.
*
Gluttony
Defined as: Intense over-indulgence.
What book have you devoured over and over with no shame?
I’m not much of a re-reader I’m afraid, but I’m about to read The Dark Tower series again soon and I doubt that it will be the last time.
*
Sloth
Defined as: a reluctance to work or make an effort.
What book have you neglected to read due to laziness?
The Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin. and Harry Potter books 3-7 by J.K. Rowling (I know!! I’m so ashamed!!) I’m going to.. Soon.. I promise!
*
Pride
Defined as: satisfaction derived from one’s own achievements or from qualities or possessions that are widely admired.
What book do you talk about most in order to sound like an intellectual reader?
I came up blank here! Sorry! Can’t remember ever talking about a book to sound like more of an intellectual reader.
*
Lust
Defined as: a strong sexual desire.
What attributes do you find attractive in male characters?
Humor, intelligence, quirkiness and charm!
*
Envy
Defined as: a feeling of discontented or resentful longing aroused by someone else’s possessions, qualities, or luck.
What book would you most like to receive as a gift?
I’d have to say the Harry Potter box set in hardback!
