Sunshine Blogger Award

23/12/2017

Long time no see, my friends.

Thanks to not having wifi for the last two months, I wasn’t exactly active here. But I’m back, during the cold and wet days, when everything is grey and you wish for either snow or sunshine. I’d really love to get a white christmas, but apparently I won’t get it. Again. The sun neither, but I can at least bring the Sunshine Blogger Award to you. I was tagged by my girl Abbie from Boneseasonofglass.

What is the Sunshine Blogger Award?
The Sunshine Blogger Award is given to those who are creative, positive, and inspiring, while spreading sunshine to the blogging community.

-List the rules and display the Sunshine Blogger Award logo in your post and/or on your blog.

Abbie’s questions:

  1. What is your favourite book that you read this year?

Ok, that is a very hard first question. Because I read a lot of amazing books this year, some of them felt SO real and raw, then there was some great fantasy. And I think I’m going to choose Uprooted by Naomi Novik. I loved so much about this book. The story was awesome with a very unique villain. And my favourite thing was probably that the romance wasn’t exactly prominent or necessary for the story. The main character did her thing and what she thought was right, without looking up or back at some man she didn’t really need.

Before I’m asking my own questions, I’m going to tag some people:

Since I tagged some fellow Germans, I guess you can also translate this tag if you want to 🙂 So please feel free to do this in whatever language you like.

My Questions:

  1. What thing could you never do to a book and why?
  2. Open the last book you’ve read, open page 100. What is the first sentence on that page?
  3. Which books are you most looking forward to read?
  4. Have you wished for / Did you get any books for christmas? (If you celebrate it)
  5. Were you always interested in books?
  6. Which book was the book of your childhood?
  7. Do you have any bookish snacks?
  8. Which book was the last to make you cry and why?
  9. Which character reminds you of yourself?
  10. If you were to plan a bank robbery, which character would you want in your gang?
  11. Do you have bookish merch?

And that’s it from me. Thank you for reading and a very happy christmas! ♄
