I’ve seen this tag floating around the blog sphere and I’ve finally been tagged in it by the amazing Giselle from Hardwork Boulevard. Thanks G, I’m really excited to participate in this one.

Pick a book set in your country/state/city

Moxyland is a South African dystopian novel set in a Cape Town run by the need for technology and a society separated into divisions which can and cannot afford to own a cellphone and a SIM card. The futuristic dystopian is commentary about South Africa’s racial past just set in a cyberpunk reality.

Pick a book that’s your favourite colour

I don’t have a favourite colour, but I really love the colour of Fangirl, the light mint reminds me of summer.

Which book do you have the fondest memories of?
-
Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte.
I read this book in grade 11 and it made me fall in love with literature. It was after reading this book that I realized I loved books and I decided to study English Lit instead of Climatology.

-
Which book did you have the most difficulty reading?
-
This one is easy: Great Expectations by Charles Dickens
This book was part of my second year reading list, I bought my copy well before the start of the semester but only finished it the morning of my English final because it was so tough for me to concentrate when I read it. It was pretentious and verbose and I disliked it so strongly that it took me 6 months to finish.

Have fun guys!!!!!
I love Ireland too!! Have you watched the 2010 movie Leap Year? After watching that film, it makes me want to go to Dublin! 🙂
That was the movie that made me fall in love with Dublin, I think a lot had to do with Matthew Goode as well LOL. But it’s just so beautiful
I totally agree! It’s swoon worthy! I love to watch that movie over again. 🙂
love this, i did this tag a while back its so fun.
I had so much fun doing this as well, it really makes you engage with the books that are on your book shelf 🙂
I would love to go to Ireland as well. I may go with some of my friends in the future (which I very much hope will happen). 🙂 I am a big Lord of the Rings fan <3 (I love both the books and the movies). I seriously need to re-watch the movies soon, it's been way too long since the last time I saw them. 😀
Very nice! I hope you do a travel post so that all us Ireland lovers can live vicariously through you 🙂
I’ll be sure to do that, if I end up going there! 😉
