11 Questions

I got tagged in a bunch of these, so I’m doing them in one go XD

@aliteraryprincess‘s questions 

What was your most anticipated book of 2018?  Did it live up to your expectations? Muse of Nightmares by Laini Taylor!!! And yes, it did. I thought it was amazing, great book and great conclusion. 

What’s your first read of 2019? Lady’s Guide to Petticoats and Piracy by Mackenzi Lee

Any favorite TV shows based on books? I’m more about comic books becoming tv series. I was into The 100 for a while, but I dropped it in season 3. 

What was the last book you read in translation? Oh, The Mulatto maybe? It’s a short story and I’m pretty sure it was originally written in French. I liked it a lot and it was about slavery and a low key thriller. 

If you could have a pet from any book/series, what would you want? Okay, so he’s not a pet, he is Sylvie’s best friend, but Ebon from Pegasus. Because I will always want a pegasus bff. 

Are there any genres that you never read? I say horror, but I read the more psychological stuff. And I rarely read non fiction, but I will read it every now and then. I keep saying I’ll never read New Adult again, but I keep getting intrigued by the synopsis and I’m always disappointed. 

Do you have a favorite classic? Anne of Green Gables is a classic, right? Cause that’s my favorite. But I like quite a few. 

What book-to-movie adaptation would you completely remake?  Why? Percy Jackson!!! Although, I’d just record the musical, which was brilliant on 18 different levels. The movie completely missed the point of the books, misinterpreted all the characters, and  the plot made no sense??? Musial was much better. 

What was your least favorite read of 2018? Enemies Like These by PK Gardner, maybe? It was painful to read. 

Are there any authors whose books you automatically buy no matter what? Brigid Kemmerer and Sarah Rees Brennan. 

What was the last book you bought? I don’t buy many books. I either get them at book sales or on a rare treat. I usually go to the library. But I think it was .69 for the complete collection of Anne of Green Gables as an e collection. Or the short story Atoning by Kelley Armstrong, spin off to Darkest Powers. Can’t remember which I bought first. Unless you want to count books I buy for school. Then The Last September, which I never read. 

@booklisted‘s questions

1. Who do you always trust to give you book recommendations? My mom XD. Although are tastes have started to differ more as I have gotten older.

2. What do you look for in a bookstore? I don’t go to book stores. And theres only one local one and it’s . . . fine. But I don’t trust BAM. 

3. What is a book you loved as a child, only to go back to it as an adult and not like? Turns out baby me and adult me see eye to eye on most books. This wasn’t when I was a child per se, but I did like House of Night when I first read it and now I hate it. The whole series is ridiculous. I read EIGHT of them, what a waste of time. 

4. What is a book you thought you were going to hate, but then were surprised by? Hmmm, most classics I like. I didn’t expect to love The Storyteller as much as I do. Thought it was going to be predictable fluff. 

5. What book did you identify with most strongly as a teenager? Like, every other book I picked up.

6. Did you have phases of reading certain types of books growing up? Describe them! I haven’t outgrown any reading phases. I still love fantasy, children’s and YA. I just keep expanding them. 

7. Have you ever received a book as a present or recommendation which you didn’t like? Did you tell the person? Pretty sure yes. But I can’t think of any examples. 

8. Have you met any of your favourite authors? If so, who? I met V E Schwab at a book signing. She was nice. 

9. If you are reading something written originally in a different language, how much do you care about the translation/translator? A lot!!! I started this one book, The Book Jumper. The translation was sloppy and stiff and choppy. It felt like a child wrote it. I couldn’t read more than a few chapters. The Storyteller was stunningly translated, straight up lyrical. Very easy to read and I got lost in the writing. Pretty sure they were both German too. 

10. What is the strangest book you’ve ever read? Hm. I want to say The Dust of 100 Dogs by A. S. King. It was about a girl who was cursed to live 100 lives as a dog before she could be human again. Most of it was her 102nd life when she was a girl again. She referenced her past lives, and went to search for her treasure and her hopefully reincarnated boyfriend. Not bad. But strange. 

11. One book you would give a 12y/o child to read? One??? Kiki Strike: Inside the Shadow City by Kristen Miller cause it’s amazing and most people give 12 year olds books about boys and a lot of the same ones over and over. 

@thereadingchallengechallenge‘s questions

@darkestwings‘s questions 

Do you have any pets? Nope 

What is your favorite thing about winter? SNOW!!! COLD!!!! BLANKETS!!!! COCO!!!!

Talk about a fictional character who inspires you. Recently, Millie from Puddin’. She is so motivated and organized and determined and optimistic. I adored her!!!

What is something you are proud of? . . . I can cook okay and bake better. 

Share some good advice you have received. It’s okay to fail

What is the last thing you bought (not counting groceries)? Movie tickets to Mary Poppins Returns 

Share the most useless piece of trivia you know. Dolly Parton was inspired to write “I Will Always Love You” after she wanted to leave a business relationship. Also, Elvis wanted the rights to the song but wasn’t willing to give her royalties. Whitney Housten made a much better deal, both crediting her and bringing the song to new levels. 

What was your first job? I volunteered at a library 

What rating system do you use for books? Five stars but I just kind of wing it. I’m not crazy consistent.

Fire Emblem Warriors Likely Playable Characters: The non-Lords

FYI THIS IS SPECULATION I dont have any inside scoop or leak or anything im just trying to guess based on some logical ideas. 

(you can read my post about what I think are the likely and unlikely lords Here.  This one is about everyone else.  As I said in the other post, Likely character names will be bolded. I will assume for now that the weapons they showed in the trailer are confirmations that their owners are playable characters, but if that changes I will amend the list.  So if you didnt know, those characters are Chrom, Corrin, Ryoma, Xander, and Marth, and I am just going to add Lucina to the list as not only does she also use the Awakening Falchion (as seen in the video) but she is one of if not the most iconic and popular FE character.  Also I am still going on the assumption that the cast will be smallish, around 30 like Hyrule Warriors, so they will want lots of units who play differently and not a lot of redundancy aka 7 different dark mages from throughout the series)

* Tiki- I would guarantee Tiki will be in the game if guarantees from me were of any real-world value.  Shes a series mascot at this point, and they are sure to have a manakete at any rate.  Since Corrin will almost certainly fight with a mix of sword and dragon limbs, Tiki will still have a unique style in fighting exclusively as a dragon.  I highly douby any other playable manakete from the series will make the cut, sadly, but at least Tiki is a good one to have, whether they pick kid or adult version shes a cool character in my book.

* Selena/Severa and Inigo/Laslow- Yes, they already will have multiple foot units who use swords but I will be very surprised if these fan favorites dont make the cut.  If not in the game on release then as DLC for sure.  Popular characters seem to show up as DLC, if HW is any indication.

* Tharja and/or Odin but DEFINITELY Leo- Keeping with the theme of popularity, FE Warriors is almost certain to have a dark mage, and I expect it will be one or more of these extremely popular 3DS spellcasters.  Maybe even both.  Odin could manifest as Owain instead but I think the competition is less steep as a dark mage than a foot/sword dude.  Leo is practically certain, hes wildly popular in Japan and elsewhere, enough so that hes getting his own manga. And his tree magic looks like nothing else in FE, so its visually unique for the roster.

* Takumi- Much like with Dark Mage, they are almost sure to have an archer/sniper in the game and I expect the honor will go to Takumi, not just because hes more popular than any other archer in the series but also because hes got a cool laser bow that players would love to use.

* Hinoka and/or Shiida(Caeda, Sheeda)- Gotta have a pegasus knight too.  Both are beloved and both have a good shot. Some might say Sumia or Cordelia are more likely, and they certainly have a good chance of being the peg, but I think its between the newest and classic.  Especially since I think Leo and Takumi will be in the game, and Ryoma and Xander will almost certainly be in the game, might as well have the older sisters too.  Did I say older sisters?

* Camilla- If theres gonna be a wyvern rider I think itll be Camilla. Shes extremely popular in the game and in merchandise, and fits with having the Fates fighting royals all be in the game (if im right about that).

* Azura- between the few combat dancers in the series, Azura is the only one fights with more than just a sword. Not only is she another lance user for the roster, she can have cool water effects in her attacks.  I think shes a shoe-in.

A quick note about the game distributions, yes I realize these are almost all Fates Characters, but lets be real, its the newest game, the best selling game (im pretty sure it surpassed Awakening a few months ago), and in the trailer 3 of the 5 orbs in the Fire Emblem had Fates weapons in them.  In terms of sales and in making the most number of fans happy, it makes sense to have the most characters from the game most people have played.  If I was the one making the game and my goal was to get the biggest number of likely consumers interested in buying the game, this is the roster I would pick along with the Lords from the other post.  If I was making the game for myself alone it would be a different roster.  I also dont expect to be 100% correct.  I think a few of these characters will be excluded in favor of less popular ones from older games just to have a more diverse spread, but I couldnt predict who would get picked in their places.
