Follow Friday: What's Your Vocab Kryptonite?

 

This week for Follow Friday the question raised by Miss Parajunkee is.......


What is the BIGGEST word you’ve seen used in a book lately – that made you stop and look it up? Might as well leave the definition & book too.

 

This is going to sound so dumb, but I can't remember the last time I looked something up!  If its a contemporary book, I never need to look words up.  Gosh that sounds so uppity *cringe*  The reason is when I was young.....I was so weird....I used to straight up read the dictionary, I seriously started reading it in 2nd grade and read it several times a year until high school.  It used to be my bathroom reading of choice. I know that is a bit of an over share but....too bad.  We aren't squeamish about such things over here on The Book Buff.  Anyway, I do like to read a lot of Historical Fiction, so I do have to look up some random stuff here and there.  How about you?  What word was your most recent vocab Kryptonite?

 

Happy Friday and happy hopping!

Parajunkie's View Feature & Follow Linkup-Books Worth the Hype?

I have a blog crush and I'm willing to bet there are a lot of bloggers out there with the same crush as me.  I loooove a little (I say "little" in jest :) blog called Parajunkie's View.  


Now, to be honest, I'm not even a paranormal nut, but I still just love this blog.  She has a great feature called the Feature and Follow.  It's a great way to get to know other bloggers and gain followers, woohoo!

So click on the button below to check it out...



The question posed this week is "What book do you think is worth the hype?"

I have to be boring and give a totally expected answer:  The Harry Potter Series.  The writing is so awesome, the storyline so intricate, the characters so relatable and colorful.  It is just awesome, no doubt about it.  Other books/series worth the hype?  Hunger Games, Lord of the Rings, Chronicles of Narnia.  

What's your answer?  What book do you think is NOT worth the hype?  Hit the comments!

If you do choose to follow me, thank you!  I appreciate each and every one of you.  I love the conversation, so please leave comments and discuss!
