Feature And Follow Friday (31). - I'm A Featured Blog!
Feature And Follow Friday Is Hosted By Alison Can Read and Parajunkee.Com.
This week I'm fortunate enough to be one of the featured blogs (I'm very excited)!
Have a read of my Q&A and head on over to the other featured blog Books & Blossoms and make sure also to stop by and visit Alison and Rachel.
I don't mind how you follow whether it be by (GFC, Linky or Networked Blogs).
I'll follow back even if I already follow you I'll just use a different way of following.
Thanks and enjoy!
(WHEN DID YOU START BLOGGING?)
I only started blogging October of last year, I used to visit all these different blogs and one day I thought you know what, I love reading why don't I start a blog of my own.
(WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE PART OF BOOK BLOGGING?)
I love the fact that there are so many people interested in reading that are also reading the same genre's as I do, I'm the only person who reads in my house so it's nice to be able to communicate with people that share the same passion for reading that I do.
(WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE BOOK(S)?)
For anyone that visits my site during Feature Follow Friday most of the questions are answered with using my favourite series Twilight - Stephenie Meyer, the reason I got into the paranormal genre was because of Twilight, I also love Harry Potter - J.K Rowling, The Mortal Instruments - Cassandra Clare, The Black Dagger Brotherhood - J.R Ward I could go on and on.
(WHAT HAS BEEN THE BEST THING THAT'S HAPPENED TO YOU BECAUSE OF BOOK BLOGGING?)
I think that there's a lot of things not just one, I love it when an author sends me a message asking me specifically whether I'd review a book for them, or people that want me to take part in blog tours it makes it even more special when it's a publisher asking you it makes me feel like I'm doing something right and I feel extremely grateful, when I started this blog I never expected it to go as well as it has especially since there are so many other blogs out there.
And all the people you meet while blogging is fantastic, but mostly it's just people care enough to leave comments on your posts, I think it's the best decision I've ever made starting up this blog.
Oh and one of the best things so far is being a feature on Feature Follow Friday!
Here is the weeks question, answer it in your post.
Q: If you could "unread" a book, which one would it be? Is it because you want to start over and experience it again for the first time? Or because it was THAT bad?
Ok I will probably have quite a few people disagreeing with me about this but the one book I would unread if I could would be "Lord Of The Rings - J.R.R Tolkien".
I really didn't like this book I found it boring and unfortunately I'm one of those people that has to finish a book, this is one case where I definitely thought the movie was way better than the book.

Alienated (The Alienated Series #1)
Broke-as-a-joke valedictorian Cara Sweeny just scored Uncle Sam’s newest scholarship, but there’s a major catch that’s got her pulse racing. To get the money, she has to spend her senior year hosting a foreign exchange student—seriously foreign—extraterrestrial, to be precise.
Cara’s knocked completely out of orbit when she meets eighteen-year-old Aelyx from planet L’eihr. He captivates her with stories from home and uses “Silent Speech” to fill her mind with emotions and sensations she never knew existed. Cara’s never felt such an easy connection, and despite her suspicions about Aelyx’s true purpose on Earth, their unlikely friendship deepens by the day.
But not everyone rolls out the welcome mat for Aelyx. Hundreds of Cara’s classmates join The Patriots of Earth—zealots hell-bent on severing human-alien relations—in staging protests for the newcomer’s expulsion. As the months pass, Patriots stoke public paranoia, landing Cara on the wrong end of a frenzied manhunt. Worse yet, Aelyx confesses the ominous truth behind the exchange program—and its deadly consequences for the human race—and Cara’s faced with two impossible tasks: protect the outworlder she’s grown to love but no longer trusts, and save her people from extinction.
