Book Buzz discussion

I would love to get to know you! Some basic questions to answer below:

- Your Name!
- Your Favourite Color
- Why you started reading!
- What book or book series got you into reading!
- Any hobbies you have!
(You can absolutely add some of your own tidbits in there! This is just a jumping off point!)

So my name is Eryn and my favourite color is blue, specifically royal blue! It's currently the color of my hair!

I started reading cause I walked into the library with a visceral urge to read and remembered my friend liked Harry Potter. Like the clueless person I was, I started with the second book. I have tried reading the first book but can't seem to get into it.

A book that got me into reading is Kalahari (I still love it to this day) and a book series that got me into is the Mysterious Benedicts Society. I kind of want to reread it and see if I would still enjoy it!
Other hobbies that I have are "playing" the violin, singing and acting from the comfort of my home and or shower, writing and blogging...about books!

Please let me know below some interesting facts about you!

Hi I'm Cherelle 😊 and I love pink (specifically #ffeoe3 hehe) and blue.

I started reading because well... I just did and I got hooked!

The book that got me into reading was probably the Chronicles of Narnia... I remember that book, along with the movies kickstarted my interest in fantasy especially...

Same here Eryn! I do "play" the violin and the ukulele (thank you Youtube tutorials) and listen to musicals- les mis and hamilton are some of my favs! ❤

Glad to be here! 🥰

That is a pretty shade of pink!
Oohh, do you still like the Chronicles of Narnia?
That's cool you play the ukulele. It's such a heartwarming instrument! It makes me feel like summer 24/7! I LOVE Hamilton. It's all I ever listen to anymore 😅

Glad you're here!

Ahhh thank you!
Yes of course I still love the Chronicles of Narnia... it’s been a while since I read it but the movies I watched lately are epic!!!

Haha yes Hamilton is so addictive with super catchy songs, it’s really interesting for me as it’s a way I learn about American history (Since I don’t live in America)

Just realized I never posted here!

Hi, I'm May! My favourite color is blue & purple. I started reading at a young age. Back in kindergarten I loved reading short kid stories and I remember I was so excited to start reading chapter books in 2nd grade. All my life I've enjoyed reading because of learning new things and feeling like I'm a part of that fictional world! For kids chapter books, I would say the Junie B Jones series. As for YA, I would say Hunger Games series introduced me to the world of young adult novels! Some hobbies I have are baking, graphic design (I'm an amateur 😂), writing stories/blogging, and traveling!

Hello May!

I love blue! That's awesome that you've been reading for so long! I have never read the Junie B series. When I didn't read as much as I do now, I read the Magic Tree House and Captain Underpants. Oooh! Those sound like fun hobbies.

Loved reading your answers to the questions and I'm glad to have you here!

Ahhh sorry I haven't posted here - I'm not very good at being active in book clubs😅

Hi, I'm Lia and I my fav colors are blue & green💙💚

Back then I'd read every once and awhile but not a lot. I started actually getting obsessed with reading after getting into an argument with friends and that's when I started noticing books to be such good companions.😆 Guess I could say I'm happy we got into that argument hahaha.

I don't exactly remember what book got me into reading again, but it was either Percy Jackson, Spirit Animals, or Harry Potter🤔

Some of my hobbies are are swimming (altho covid ruined that😭), rollerblading, blogging, and reading xD

Thanks for the invite Eryn!!!

Hello, Lia! Glad to have you here!

Lol! What'd you get into an argument about that made you get into reading?
Oooh! Love swimming! Can't til Covid is gone! Hope that you can get back to swimming then!

Again glad to have you and hopefully you can join in this month's BOTM if you have not already read it, though I do think I saw a review for it on your blog!

Hi I’m Charlotte!👋

My favorite color is blue or purple

When I was young I always liked reading, I read The Secret Key and Diary of a Wimpy Kid . And my niece LOVES books, she has this list where she counts all the books she read in a year and she had more than 100. So she lent me some books. She lent me The School for Good and Evil Collection (Books 1-5), The Fault in Our Stars and Divergent Series Complete Box Set. I really wanted to finish them all for her, so it was like a challenge, and by the time I finished them all I loved reading!💕

Hahaha it was more of a silly drama fight back in middle school where we wouldnt talk for days😂😂😂 So I had books with me during that time xD

YESS hopefully 2021 will be a much better year🙏🥺

Yupp!! I've already read Legendborn, but I can still try joining in with the convos and laugh at you all while you try guessing what'll happen muahahhaa😈🤣

hello everyone! Ashmita here! My favorite color is blue. Like the blue of the sky on a clear day. I also like black and chocolate brown. I have been reading for as long as I remember. My mother is a bookworm, so when I was younger, she used to give me picture books, to stop me from disturbing her. haha. I guess that's how it all started! Hobbies would include reading (obviously!), blogging (about books!) and playing the guitar, and sketching! Nice to be here!

Hello Charlotte!

I aspire to read the amount you niece does! I read Divergent earlier this year and I actually plowed through it! It was entertaining but I don't think I enjoyed it enough to continue the series.

I hope you end up finishing all those series you want to for your nice!

Thank you for joining the Busy Bee's!

Books are an awesome escape!
🤞🏽 May 2021 be filled with hope!
Bring the popcorn. 🍿🍿 The struggle will be real guessing these plot twists and hopefully it will be worth it!

It's awesome that your mother is a bookworm. Do you and your mom have similar reading tastes?

Love drawing, especially my favourite characters from TV shows and books! What do you draw?
