Well, this was certainly a pleasant surprise. It makes me so happy, the fact that someone actually enjoys my blog!
So first of all a big BIG thank you to Nicola at Thoughtsonfantasy for nominating me! (And sorry I am so late!)
You should totally check out her blog! It has awesome, very different and creative content! It’s mainly a blog about fantasy itself where she talks about all the things that compose a novel – the characters, the world… and a lot of curiosities about the book world in general!
Also, you can see her answers to the TAG here.
THE RULES:
- Thank the person who nominated you and provide a link to their blog.
- Add these rules to your post.
- Answer all the questions below.
- Display the award picture in your post.
- Nominate 12 other bloggers who are funny, inspiring and most important of all ENTERTAINING!
So here are my answers:
1. Why did you start a blog in the first place?
Well, this will be a bit long… I always loved to read books and when I moved to live with my boyfriend in other country, a lot of books stayed behind… I started to realize that with time, I forgot a lot about some books that I knew I loved… So I decided to make some type of resume and my favorite parts of the book in a notebook, I let some of my friends and family read them and they said I should start a blog. So I started checking a lot of blogs about books, instagrams, goodreads.
Well I knew nothing about blogging and I have a very difficult time expressing myself, so I didn’t know how was I gonna do it… I mean there are so many great blogs and reviews. Why would anyone see my blog? Did I have something to say that people would actually enjoy to read?
I wasn’t sure that that would be a good idea… Well it passed some time and my friends were always saying I should do it so one day, I just tried it out and I really enjoyed it! I slowly started to develop my writing to arrange my thought better and I gained some friends that share the same love for books that I do! I started to see that a blog shouldn’t be about what other people would like to see, or not because you can’t possibly please everybody, but about sharing what you love. Well I haven’t ever been so happy with a decision!
2. What is your favourite book?
That question again…It keeps getting more and more difficult! I have so many favorites and I keep reading and reading and finding more…
I think I will go with two books I would read countless times and I would never get tired!
3. What do you dislike the most?
Well that’s a big list… I will go with Nicola’s theme and talk about something that I dislike in people. A thing I hate is people that act as if they are superior to everybody for whatever reason, and that think they have the right to squash others. It makes me so furious when that happens!
4. What is your favourite food at the mall?
Without a doubt Hesburger (Finnish Fast-food Company) !! And the reason I love it so much it’s because I am allergic to a lot of fast-foods, especially when fried. But I love french fries! And until now the only place I found I am not allergic to is Hesburger and it’s oh so good!
5. What is your favourite past time?
Excluding reading and blogging it’s either drawing or photography! I always loved to draw but I kinda stop a bit when I moved to Finland since some of my art supplies are still in Portugal at my mom’s place… So I started photographing more than I draw, and I really love it! I am not super good at it but I have for sure a lot of fun!
Nominations of some blogs that I really enjoy reading:
I nominate:
If you’ve already done this or if you don’t want to do it feel free to skip it!
Also feel free to comment answers to any of the questions, I would love to read some! 😀
I read Little Women when I was too young to fully enjoy it. I think I need to reread it now especially after reading this post. I liked Anna too though I am yet to read the other two books in the series.
I am glad that you decided to blog. I guess the bookish community really makes this experience even better:-) Thanks for the nomination 🙂

I really like Little Women and I have been thinking in re-reading it too! Probably during the winter time, I always enjoy it more! Thank you so much! Blogging really makes me happy and I never had many people that I could talk about books with, so it has been amazing! 😀

Sorry for being so slow to comment, I’ve been out of action for a while and am only just catching up! Thanks so much for the nice words about my blog 🙂
Great answers! So good that your friends and family encouraged you to blog, your posts are really genuine and well written, not to mention full of gorgeous pictures (wish I could take pictures like that – sadly photography is not my strong suit). I still haven’t read Little Women but I really must, since it comes so highly recommended. And it sounds like I need to try both Hesburger and Arnolds Donuts now when I’m in Finland 😀

When I started blogging, I was sure no one was gonna take the time to check my posts, and I was kinda afraid they would, haha! So I made sure to keep in mind I was doing it for myself first. Then I became addicted to the interactions with everyone 😀

Same here >.< Book community is just something really special!
And I feel is that even when you are not present for some time, you are still part of it when you come back… Something I rarely feel outside here ahaha
That makes me sound so pathetic 😂
