I am late to post these, but here are my answers for the interview questions for the Book Bloggers Love-A-Thon!
I am having so much fun with this! :)
1. How did you come up
with your blog name?
I changed the name for my blog several times. When I was first creating my blog I said I wanted to be able to talk and share about my love of Books. But not only books, tv shows, movies, and board/video games. So my awesome significant other came up with this name after I told him it would be cool if he would sometimes review things with me. (a she thinks, he thinks thing) It is a play off of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams. "Life, the Universe, and Everything" became Books, Movies and Everything.

2. What genre/subject
matter do you read and review most on your blog?
More than anything I have been reviewing books. More specifically Young Adult books. But I plan on reviewing some more movies and add in some games as well.

3. Name the 3 books
you're excited for in 2014!
Well two of my 3 books that I was most excited about being released this year are already out. 1. Cress by Marissa Meyer. 2. Into the Still Blue by Veronica Rossi. And I am pretty excited for 3. The One by Kiera Cass.

I am in the United States. Florida specifically.

5. Tell us -- how did
you get into blogging in the first place?
I was looking at some blogs and thought "Man, it would be so cool to share my thoughts and ideas about the books I read." So I decided to go ahead and share my love of books.

6. Apart from reading,
what other hobbies/interests do you have?
- I love doing things with my little girls.
- I love to craft. More specifically making things out of felt. Like finger puppets!
- I like to write. I am working on my first draft of my first story. I started writing it in November 2013 for NaNoWriMo.
- Games. I love games. Board games, card games, video games, computer games. I LOVE having game nights with my friends.
- TV shows. I watch TOO many shows. But I love them.
- Music. I love music. Always have. I love music about the same as loving books. Which is A LOT!
7. If you were stuck
on a deserted island, which books would you bring with you?
This is tough. There are so many books that I LOVE! But I would definitely have to bring:
- The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer
- Under the Never Sky (the whole Trilogy!) by Veronica Rossi
- The Hunger Games (Trilogy!) by Suzanne Collins
- Matched (Trilogy!) by Ally Condie
- Legend (Trilogy!) by Marie Lu
- Harry Potter (Whole Series) by J.K. Rowling
I think I could list books forever, so I will stop there.
8. If you were stuck
in some dangerous situation (like a fire, a sinking ship, a warzone), which
book boy or girl would you want to come and save you?
Hmmm....good question. I am not sure. There are so many good people I think would be able to help me. Do I really have to pick one? Roar could come save me. I would like it very much. Because I love him. But Thorne has the Rampion and that would make it easier to get to me. I also think I would like to be saved by Four. So any of those would be quite awesome.

9. You’re attending a
party with your friends. Suddenly, the DJ changes the song and it’s YOUR song –
what song would that be?
This one is hard! I have so many songs. I LOVE so many songs! Right now my favorite songs that I have been connecting to emotionally lately are:
- So Much More by Against Me!
- Just Give Me a Reason by P!nk featuring Nate Ruess
- It's Time by Imagine Dragons
10. What 3 movies
would you love to have your favorite author write into books, or vice versa?
Vice Versa, three book series that I would love to see as movies would be:
- The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer
- Under the Never Sky trilogy by Veronica Rossi
- Matched trilogy by Ally Condie
I love how you came up with your blog name. I remember really enjoying the movie The Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy. I really need to read those books! I love that so many of us would bring Harry Potter to our deserted islands. I read Legend but I have not read the rest of the series, I need to get to it! Nice to "meet" you!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I too still need to read the books. I feel like Harry Potter is a piece of me growing up. I remember first reading it in Middle school. I remember getting the books the day they came out. I just love it!
DeleteNice to "meet" you too! Thanks for the comment! :D
Oh, I love Just Give Me A Reason and It's Time! I haven't heard So Much More, but I guess I should, since it seems we've got the same taste in music! And books too! I'd love to see The Lunar Chronicles as a movie! =)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love So Much More. Against Me! is a punk band from Florida. They are one of my FAVORITE bands.
DeleteI do think the rights for Lunar Chronicles movie were sold, so hopefully there will be one in the next few years! :D
