Confessions of another book drunkard

Hey, My name is Alison Gregor, and I am the fellow book drunkard (and cousin) of Ally Randolph.  I have seen her confessions and have decided to respond.  So here are the confessions of another book drunkard.

I stay up way past my bedtime

     I can't argue, I do the exact same thing.  Sometimes more than once in a row.

Once I stayed up until 3 or 4 in the morning and didn't even realize what time it was until I finished the book I was reading (I think it was The Iron Butterfly)

I dog-ear pages.

I have never been a page folder, and I have gotten on your case so many times about this.  But I have had enough.

Burn her at the stake!  But keep the books away from the fire!

I have maybe....physically harmed some books.

     I do the same thing.  But it's always for a good reason.  

source

Actually the reason is normally terrible.  It normally involves character deaths.

At times I've read a whole book in one day.

I too binge read. 

I remember reading the hunger games in two-ish days and my sister got so mad at me because I sat in my room the whole day and she got bored so she kept bothering me.

I color-coordinated my bookshelf

And you promised to do mine.  Get down here and make my bookshelves pretty!  My bookshelf really needs some organizing.

I didn't want to get my drivers license because it meant I couldn't read in the car anymore.
I got my permit and I dread it for the same reason.  I also don't like that I have to grow up and have responsibilities.

source

Sometimes, I've been a bit forceful when it comes to making book suggestions....
I have been on the other side of those suggestions.  Most of the time they turn out to be awesome books but then I have to read the rest of the series and finish the books I was reading before...

source

I read over A HUNDRED BOOKS PER YEAR.

source

I CANNOT get into audiobooks.  They're tooooo slooooww.
I personally like audiobooks because I can read with my eyes closed.  It's like having a superpower.

source

The majority of my money goes towards books.
I don't spend all my money on books, but I do like to have nice artillery at all times.

source

I never pay full price for a book.
I will often get really far through the bookstore with a book I'm gonna buy when I look again...It's kind of like this:

These are all of Ally's but I think there are a few more that I should add in.  

I love it when people read to me.  Especially when they can do the voices and read it dramatically.  I also really like reading aloud dramatically.  I'm telling you I can draw tears if you give me a sad piece to read.  

source

I am pretty good at book shopping for people when I know what they have read before.  I always wait for them to read the first chapter so I can see if they like it.

Happy new year everybody!! :)
