Booklet or Tome?

 

Tome if I am familiar with the author and approve of their style.  Booklet or sample if the author is an unknown to me

 

 

Pre-Owned or New?

 

Textbooks, unless for a history class, are always purchased pre-owned if available.  I also get many books from charity shelves- a great way to add to my collection and help a charity out.  If I find that I really love a book and all I have is a pre-owned copy, I will invest in a new copy.

 

 

Historical Fiction or Fantasy?

 

I can't choose... I love both... but if I must, I must... I will say that nine times out of ten if presented with a new historical fiction or fantasy novel, I will choose the historical fiction first but put the fantasy on my TBR pile.

 

 

Hardcover or paperback?

 

If purchasing, I only purchase the hardcover if I have read and enjoyed the book and find it worthy of my physical book shelves.  I will have to say paperback for this one.

 

 

Funny or sad?

 

I do not care for comedy writing, so I will have to say sad.

 

Do you prefer reading in summer or in winter?

 

I prefer reading in all seasons.

 

Classics or mainstream?

 

I like both.  Classics to soothe me after reading a glut of crappy SPA 'mainstream' attempts at novels.

 

 

Guidebook or Fiction?

 

Fiction.  If it was simply non-fiction, it would be a tie, but I abhor 'guidebooks' because I seldom find them of any use.

 

 

Crime Novel or thriller?

 

Thriller.

 

 

Ebook or Print Edition?

 

Both.

 

 

Collecting or clearing out?

 

COLLECTING.

 

 

Internet or Bookstore?

 

Internet with the exception of non-chain bookstores.  I love 'mom and pop' type bookstores!

 

 

Cookbook or Baking Book?

 

Cookbook.
