Book Tag: 7 Deadly Sins

So I was tagged by Ely and Chami from @ A Book So Fathomless to do the 7 Deathly Sins tag.

1. Greed - What is your most inexpensive book?


Any Sweet Vally High book that i bought form a charity shop next to my high school will definitely be the cheapest at 50 cents a book.

If not books that I won in giveaways or gifted from family.

2. Wrath – What author do you have a love/hate relationship with?
I have no ideal to be honest... its either I hate them or I love them. 

3. Sloth – What book have you neglected reading due to laziness?

All the books on my TBR?!?! does that count?? lol

One thing I notice is series! I am lazy to start or finish a series especially those that have alot of books in them. I keep on saying I'll read them some day but that's just procrastination.
.
 
The Vampire Academy is one of the books that I had on my shelve for a while but have yet to pick it up as i am intimidated with the large series.


Also the Insurgent and Alligent! I have yet to continue with the series since they are back in Malaysia and I am kinda scared of reading Alligent since I roughly know what happen at the end to the series.

4. Pride – What book do you most talk about in order to sound like an intellectual reader?

I am probably the only 'reader' among my group of friends so I don't really have much to talk about books unless its recommendations or Harry Potter which most of them have read or watch the movie. 

Probably the books that I studied in literature back in high school like Holes by Louis Sachar and Dr Jackle and Mr Hyde. If not Hamlet when I was in college.
 
Oh and John Green's books! I always like to randomly qoute his books to my friends which either they roll their eyes or have a confuse look! lol.


Also any books that I have the Bahasa Malaysia translation like the entire Harry Potter series or The Fault In Our Stars! I love talking and comparing the translation version of the books.
 
5. Gluttony – What book have you devoured over and over again with no shame?

Harry Potter books! Don't ask me how many times I re read them as its till the point that all my teachers in high school know about my 'obsession' for the series.

I somehow manage to re-read TFIOS over 8 times.

Any Stephine Perkins or Rainbow Rowell books are also up for a re read as well.

 Holes by Louis Sachar as mentioned above I had to study for high school yet I here I am at Uni and I re read this at least once a year.

Long story short... I love re reading books :D  

6. Lust – What attributes do you find attractive in male or female characters.
 
 Female - not annoying or make me cringe (and by make me cringe i meant make me want to chuck the reading device across the room), independent, intelligent, witty, sarcastic, awkward/weird, feisty

Examples for that are Hazel from TFIOS, Cath from Fangirl, Cinder from the Lunar Chronicles,  

Male - smart, witty, charming, cheeky ,caring, sweet, kind, have good hair (lol) preferably brunettes, dreamy eyes, a gentlemen when he needs, be able to cook *wink*, a bit nerdy/dorky, If he likes reading, food or gaming (or all three) then he is a keeper!

Also I like the guys that start out as a total jerk or bad boys that changes for the better like Wesley Rush in The Duff.

Long story short someone like Etienne St Clare from Anna and the French Kiss, Augustus Walters from  TFIOS, Prince Maxon from the selection series

Reason why i don't have a boyfriend number #5127... 
 
7. Envy – What book would you most like to receive as a gift?

LOL that's like all the books on my wishlist!

I really want to get the movie cover and the Australia edition of the hard back of TFIOS but can't bring myself to buy them as... well I already owe TFIOS and rather spend my scared cash on a book that I have yet to read.

At the moment for gift I want is box sets like The Maze Runner, Legend by Marie Wu (lovely hardback if possible) and The summer I turned Pretty by Jenny Han.

I also want to get The Last Of Us 'American Dream' Graphic novel as I love the game but could not bring my self to get the comic. Same goes with some of the Avatar the last air bender comics and the Archie Comics graphic novels.

So yah... here are all the questions! do this tag if you guys haven't!
