Q: What is your biggest pet peeve when it comes to books? Maybe you don’t like love triangles or thin plots? Tell us about it!

A:  I didn't have any pet peeves before, but recently I think I've discovered one. I've seen this happen in many books. Many. When the male protagonist is described for the first time in a story, a story in which the main character is usually a young girl, the words beautiful, gorgeous, or incredibly handsome are always used. And I always have to roll my eyes at it.

I've noticed that YA has mostly done a good job with relating to girls. In most stories the girl is always plain and has a low self esteem and then some incredible hot guy always falls in love with her. Sure we girls don't mind those types of books but what about guys. Can you imagine a boy reading a book like that and just thinking, "Well no wonder girls don't like me. I'm not beautiful and gloomy." How would we like it if in every story we read, the female was always described as hot, sexy and absolutely out- of - this world gorgeous? Yeah I don't think we'd like it to much.

Don't get me wrong, I love YA but I've had a couple guy friends tell me this and I could see what they were talking about.

Q. Do you have a favorite series that you read over and over again? Tell us a bit about it and why you keep on revisiting it?

A: I do have a few favorite series that I keep going back to. One of them is Twilight. I will never get tired of rereading my favorite parts in all four books. The Wolves of Mercy Falls series is another one that I always find myself looking over. I love Sam so I especially like going over his povs. Another series is the Hunger Games series. I love it and will never get tired of its awesomeness.

Q. If you could change the ending of any book (or series), which book would you choose? Why and to what?

 *Spoilers*



A: I think I would have to change the ending to Matched By Ally Condie. I felt like the ending was so boring and plain. Sure  Kyle had beem taken away, creating drama, but I just wasn't left anticipating the next book. I wanted Cassia to have actually come up with a plan on how she was going to save Ky because I don't understand how she's going to go about that.I don't know... I dont really have any ideas, I just know I wanted the ending to be different to what it was.



Q. In books like the Sookie Stackhouse (True Blood) series the paranormal creature in question "comes out of the closet" and makes itself known to the world. Which mythical creature do you wish would come out of the closet, for real?

A: Werewolves! But the cool kind, not the icky monster ones. I would love to meet one! I would ask so many questions about them and how they came to be. I'd want to know everything!

Q. If you could write yourself a part in a book, what book would it be and what role would you play in that book?

A: If I had a part in a book, my part would have to be epic. I'd want to be a total Bad ass character. And if possible, a werewolf. I love werewolves, so if I could be a werewolf in a book that would be pretty cool. For example, if I could be one of the werewolves from the Twilight Saga, I'd love that. I think they're the luckiest werewolves out there. They don't eat people, look like giant wolves,not monsters, can phase whenever they want, and don't age until they decide they want to. Very lucky compared to other werewolves. So I wouldn't mind being one of them.

Q: How has your reading habits changed since you were a teen? Or If you are still a teen what new genres are you in love with currently?

A: Well since I'm still technically a teen, I'm gonna think back to when I was a kid... As a kid, I didn't read to much. I read a couple books but that was it. Then around 14 or 15 I started to really get into reading. Right now I'm really starting to like Dystopia. It just appeals to me for some reason.

Q:  Let's step away from books for a second and get personal. What    T-Shirt slogan best describes you? 

A: My brother bought me a T-shirt that says, "Who needs drugs, I go broke buying books." That shirt describes me pretty well considering most of my money does get spent on books. And I wouldn't waste my money on anything else to be honest. I can't think of anything else that I want.

Q. Name 3 authors that you would love to sit down and spend an hour or a meal with just talking about either their books or get advice on writing from?

A: Three authors who I'd love to get together with would have to be Maggie Stiefvater, I love her writing because its so lyrical. Lauren Oliver, I really liked her writing in Delirium. And the third one would be Suzanne Collins, I would love to hear her tell me the story of how she came up with the idea for such an amazing series.

Q. Let's step away from besties...What is the worst book that you've ever read and actually finished?

A: The worst book for me would be 1984 by George Orwell

If it had been up to me I would never have even read it, but it was required in my English class so I had no choice.
