Book Blogger Hop (30) & Follow Friday (22)

It's Friday so it means it's time for the Book Blogger Hop and Follow Friday!


Book Blogger Hop


First off, the Book Blogger Hop is a weekly meme hosted by Jennifer of Crazy-for-Books. It is a way for all the book bloggers out there to get together and find out about each other's blogs. I've found a lot of great blogs and bloggers through this hop and it's always fun to take part in each week.


THIS WEEK'S QUESTION:


TELL US ABOUT ONE OF YOUR POSTS FROM THIS WEEK AND GIVE US A LINK SO WE CAN READ IT (REVIEW OR OTHERWISE)!


This week has been a bit of a slow week but I'm in the middle of midterms so I had to focus on school more. But if you want to check out my review of Boys Don't Cry by Malorie Blackman, feel free to do so. This is a British title and I don't know that it's out in North America. Malorie Blackman is a fantastic author and I definitely recommend you check her out.





The Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee's View each week. It works a lot like the Book Blogger Hop except that it's only on Fridays. I haven't been taking part in this hop as long but I've found a lot of great new blogs through this one too.


THIS WEEK'S QUESTION:


WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ROMANCE HERO-TYPE? STEREOTYPE WISE. DO YOU LIKE THE STRONG SILENT TYPE OR THE BRUTE MACHO MAN?


I tend to fall really easily for the bad guy types in most of what I read...either that or the silent brooding type. I really don't know why. However those aren't really the types of guys I go for in real life.



UPDATE:


I only have one more week of classes and then I'm off for a week for reading week. And after that I really only have a month of classes left before exams. So this year went by fast. I plan on catching up on my reading during that week off, it is called READING week after all (granted I'm supposed to do school work too). Since January I haven't really read all that much which makes me kind of sad but I fully plan to rectify that come reading week.



That's it for this week!


Enjoy your weekends!

  6. In books, I tend to go for the charasmatic, positive, and cheerful hunk. Which is the opposite of who I date IRL. He's more silent and brooding (and a hunk if I do say so myself).

  7. I'm so glad you, too, prefer the Strong, Silent Type over the Brute Macho Man! :D *hi fives* I think if I found a guy like my fave fictional character IRL I'd definitely go for him!

    Check out my FF this week

  17. Stopping by via the Hop! Who can't resist those brooding bad boys? Great answers!

  18. Old follower stopping by.

    I like the strong silent type best (: Arrogance and cockiness is such a turn-off for me most of the time. Although a properly done bad guy can be very attractive too.

    Hope you have a great weekend!

  19. I'm too guarded for the strong silent type. I usually prefer the leading males that are sarcastic charmers!

    Have a happy hop!
