#SundayQuestions: What Book Has Been On Your Shelves the Longest?

ecassells

Do you mean a physical bookshelf? I only have a bookshelf to hold the elementary leveled books I've purchased from Goodwill. These books will eventually live inside a classroom at an elementary that I've been hired at. Sadly, that hasn't happened yet but I pray it will.

But my books that I read are often digital because I have no room to collect physical books for my own reading.

But my digital book library the longest book is Pride and Prejudice and Zombies in my Nook library. I had a nook tablet when they were popular things to have..My mom purchased one for me after I had bought her one.

I've never finished the zombie book because I just couldn't get into it. The topic should interested me but...nope.

I got this question from this blog:  Justyourtypicalbookblog.blogspot.com.

#SundayQuestions: Used or Brand New?

It doesn't matter if the book is new or used. If it's a book that I am interested in reading I will buy it.

Since most of my book purchases now are digital..they're all technically brand new.

So, do you prefer new or used books when out buying them?

Question  came from Justyourtypicalbookblog.blogspot.com. From a list of questions out of one of those questionnaires.

#SundayQuestions: What is the strangest item you've found in a book?

RyanMcGuire

As in something you can pick up from inside of a book? Or? I'm taking this in a general sense that you've found inside a library book.

The strangest thing I've found inside of a book was blood stains. While yes it could easily have been something else. It looked the way blood does after drying on paper -- and yes I've had experience with blood on paper.

I don't remember what the book was I just remember the experience of it. I returned it the next day. I was a kid who panicked because the book has blood and my fingerprints. The whole MY FINGERPRINTS are now on a book with mystery blood -- the concern was real. Plus, a dash of this is disgusting I do not want to read a book with blood on it.

But mostly the whole fingerprints on a blood book. At the time I didn't process that yeah there's a lot of prints on this book including mine. Prints that more than likely will be worn off from being checked out. And, no, I didn't inform the librarians that there was blood stains out of worry that they'd blame me for the stains.

What's the weirdest thing you've found in a book?

#SundayQuestions: #StephenKing- Literary genius or opiate of the masses?

simonwijers

I've never read a book by Stephen King that's enchanted me. They were good enough.

He inspires and is loved by readers so I mean he's doing something that people like. 

I've read blog posts and comments by people saying that his books are getting too long. I don't understand that sentiment. Unless they read him for quick reads and now it's becoming a chore for them?

I haven't read anything by him that was an exercise to read due to length.

What is your thoughts on Stephen King? Do you like his work?

#SundayQuestions: Name a book you acquired in some interesting way.

My aunt would give us stolen Goosebump books from her job when I was in kindergarten/first grade. You know the warning in a book if you've received a book with no cover that it was given illegally? Yeah, I didn't understand that warning until my aunt started getting books for us that way.

I just found out why this was a thing from googling it just now for this blog post. I didn't understand why that was a tell-tale sign that a book was illegal. But is it illegal if you keep the books without selling them? I didn't find the answer.

A stripped book is a mass market paperback that has been stripped of its cover in order to be pulped and recycled as a result of lack of sales. The covers are returned to the publisher as evidence that the books have been destroyed and the books are discarded or recycled into paper or cardboard products. However, some stripped books end up back on the marketplace, and are sold at places like flea markets.

Have you received a book or books in some interesting way?
