This week’s musing asks…

How do you decide to read a book by an author you haven’t read before? What sort of recommendations count most highly in making that decision?

I read the Hush, Hush series by Becca Fitzpatrick based on SensitiveMuse's recommendation on Twitter. She made a Patch girl out of me!

This week’s musing asks…

Are you currently collecting any authors? Why?
Do you have all of their books? If not, why not?
Did you buy all the books in the collection at the same time, or did you buy a book here, a book there? Have you actually read all of the collection? If not, why not?

Yes, I'm collecting the Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins.

I have all of the books.

I read them all first through the library then bought three box sets for myself, my mom and my friend.

Can't wait to see the first movie in March 2012.

This week’s musing asks…

Other than for school, do you read books to learn how to do something? What was/were the topic(s)?

I learned from Project Runway judge, Nina Garcia, that a Hanes white t-shirt is the best fitting one on the market.

This week’s musing asks…

Would you say that you read about the same amount now as when you were younger? More? Less? Why?

MORE time! I make reading a priority. Now I love a good young adult series by Lauren Oliver, Beth Revis, Lauren DeStefano, Becca Fitzpatrick or Ally Condie.
