The Liebster Award is rewarded to up and coming blogs that currently have less than 200 followers. It's a way of getting to know different bloggers and to even discover new blogs.The German word Liebster, translates into English: Sweetest, which I found out from the blogger who nominated me. I just recently found out about this award about a month ago, and I'm excited that I was nominated for it. Thank you to Chelsea from Chelsea’s Reading Adventures, who nominated me!
The Rules

2.  Answer the 10 Liebster questions given to you by the nominee before you.
3. List 11 facts about yourself.
4. Pick 10 bloggers to be nominated for the award with fewer than 200 followers.

6. Go notify your nominees on their blogs.

10. I really like books. (If you couldn’t tell. ;) )

11. I’m not picky in the books I read, I’m just strong in my beliefs. 


Q&A

1. How long have you been reading?
Since I was little…but once I got to the chapter book level I didn’t like reading!

2. What is your favorite book, and why?
Hahaha! That’s funny! Wait, what? One favorite book? I can’t do that! That would be so mean to all my other books I adore!

3. If you could live in any fictional world, what world would it be?
Fictional world…hmmm…I can’t think of a fictional world I’d like to live in. 

4. What are your top five favorite TV shows?
*removed*

5. Do you like when books are made into TV shows or movies?
Eh, not really. Only because they leave out so much! Do not even get me started on the Left Behind books & movies! And then they’re remaking the first movie now?! Argh! 

6. What is your favorite genre of book?
It’s funny, back when I first started this blog I would put on the Historical books “I’m not a fan of historical books but...” Hahaha! Historical is definitely my favorite, Amish right after that.  

7. If you could be any character in a book which character would you choose and why?
I can’t answer this one….every book I’ve read the main (female) character has been through something (losing a spouse, parent, etc) that I don’t think I could do…I’d rather be myself and let The Lord do what He wants with me. 

8. Who is your all-time favorite book boyfriend/girlfriend?
Eleanor & Marcus from “A Beauty so Rare” by Tamera Alexander for Historical; Amelia & Michael from “The Fiddler” by Beverly Lewis for Amish; and for modern Cassia & Adam from “Million Dollar Dilemma” by Judy Baer.

9. What is your favorite song and band?
I only listen to Christian music and right now I really like “Got that Fire” by Royal Tailor. Favorite Bands are: Royal Tailor, Manic Drive, Capital Kings, Superchick, Anthem Lights and the list goes on and on.

10. Other than reading, what do you like to do in your spare time?
Spare Time? What’s that? I’ve never heard of it! Hahaha, but I’m not kidding!  I do American Heritage Girls (it’s a Christian scouting organization for girls ages 5-18) and love it! I also am trying to do four years of High School in two (I don’t know if I’ve said I’m homeschooled? Well, I am! :) ) Plus I’m a blogger! I try to read 6-8 books a week so I’m very busy!
