Maddie’s Questions
- What’s your favourite literary trope?
I really like the hero’s journey. I enjoy seeing a character come up (often from nothing) to embark on a (sometimes) dangerous quest/adventure, all the while growing as a person. I don’t think I will ever tire of this. - If you could write a book, what would it be about?
It would probably be some kind of speculative fiction. I have a few nuggets of ideas and am toying with potentially participating in NaNoWriMo this year. Could be fun? - What’s your favourite thing to do while reading?
Snuggle with my cat and drink tea, of course! - What’s your favourite food combinations?
Carbs on carbs with a side of carbs. I once dipped a french fry into mashed potatoes. I have a problem. On a serious note, I also like salty & sweet combo – but fun fact, I am not a sweets addict! I could literally live my life without ice cream or chocolate. I have issues with food for sure, but not with sweets.) - What’s the weirdest food combinations you like?
Mustard in macaroni and cheese is BOMB. - What is your most prized possession?
My books for sure! I am kind of a minimalist and don’t tend to have a lot of clutter, but my books (which need new shelves BADLY) are the one thing I just love to surround myself with!A subset of that, I have the first two issues of the Coheed and Cambria Second Stage Turbine Blade comics from Bag Online Adventures before the rebrand. They are out of print now and apparently hard to find – even back then I had to special order them from my local comic book shop! One of these days I need to get the rebranded books so I can see it all. - Do you follow any book-tubers? If so, who’s your favourite? If not, why not?
I don’t, and I am not really sure why but I prefer to follow bloggers when engaging with and discussing books? I feel it is a lot more interactive with the creator. - Who are your favourite bloggers to follow on twitter?
The first blogger I ever followed on Twitter is Melanie, @meltotheany, and she is probably one of my favorite bloggers, period. She is incredibly kind to everyone and does her best to make others feel special, and considering she is a top reviewer I think that is incredibly admirable.Some of my other favorites are: @kelly_reads, @thriftybiblio, @FictionNoChaser, @BooksVertigoTea, @AvalinahsBooks, and @BiblioReviews. - What is your ideal vacation? (No money limits)
Extended travel anywhere! My preferred way to travel is spend a lot of time in a place and live kind of like a local. My favorite trip was my 3 months spent backpacking in South America and really wish that was something I could do again. - What’s something ridiculous that you used to believe when you were younger?
…I honestly cannot think of anything right now. I know I thought some stupid shit, but my memory prior to like 7th grade is poop. - What would be the clickbait title of the last book you read?
“Make people think that you are smart by pretending to read with these five easy steps!” — Book Simulator (review coming on 6/19!)

Mmm… carbs. Yes, fries and ice cream are SO GOOD! and now I am drooling!
Thank you for tagging me!! I really appreciate it😊💕
You’re welcome!!!
Yaaas! Carbs on Carbs on Carbs! And cat snuggles and reading? Sounds like heaven.

CARBS ARE LIFE!!!!

I love this, I love you! <3 I would like to add to number 3 that you also could be having secret tea and blogger chats on Twitter with certain friends while trying to read 😉 and have to say that your answer to number 4 defines me as person haha. Thank you for the lovely tag!
OMG how dare you put me on blast like that, LMAO! I adore our Twitter chats <3 Looking forward to seeing your answers when you get around to this tag, and love you too!
Hehe it’s what friends do.. call each other out 😘💕
I perfectly understand the dipping of french fries into potato mash. Carbs are life!! Thank you so much for the nomination, I’m looking forward to doing this 😍
It brings me so much joy to see so many people GET my carbs on carbs with a side of carbs life! You are most welcome, and I look forward to seeing your responses!
Now I want to try mustard in mac and cheese…. it actually sounds like such a good idea!! Any mustard preference for a newbie??
YAAASSS DO IT! I think just plain old yellow mustard is best… like that French’s yellow!
I will report back with my findings 🙂 Either you’re a genius or this was all an elaborate prank to see if you could get someone to eat it 😀
BAHAHAHA I wish I had been that clever for an elaborate prank, that would be funny! A guy I dated like 15 years ago introduced me to it and it is so good. I cannot wait to hear what you think! 😛
I’ve done NANOWRIMO a couple of times and it was hard! I don’t do it any more but it’s definitely a challenge that’s fun to try to conquer.
I can imagine how hard it is! I totally respect everyone that has ever taken part in it because it takes so much dedication and effort, but it is also so cool. Thanks for stopping by the blog!
D’awww, I’m blushing 🙂 listing me as a favorite! Thank you 🙂 thanks for nominating me 🙂 and actually I also don’t follow booktubers. I don’t have the attention span for videos, my mind just starts wandering 😀
YOU ARE A FAVORITE! xoxox You’re welcome as it is totally deserved, you do so much for the community and I adore our chats! My mind starts wandering too… it is somehow easier to lose focus on videos than words for me.
