Book Blogger Hop #13 and Follow Friday #8

Have you all had a good week? Mine's been OK, just getting back into the routine of school... Fun. Anyway, here's my Blog Hop and Follow Friday =]

Book Blogger Hop

Why do you read the genre you read? What draws you to it? 

My answer: I read YA Paranormal mostly, and I'm not sure why... I guess, it's just that I like getting lost in a world that would never happen, and I especially love finding out about all of the weird and wonderful creatures authors have come up with. I also like reading about things that would never happen to me, because people fascinate me. I'm not really sure... this is a hard question! Do you sort of understand what I mean? I like that when I'm reading I'll have no idea what's going to happen, and it keeps me reading into the night because I need to know what happens, and I think a lot of YA paranormal books have that suspense... And of course, there are all the love interests... But we won't go there :L 


What makes up your non-human family?

My answer: I don't really have a non-human family... I used to have a rabbit called Snuggles, and I loved him, but he sadly died last summer while I was on holiday, which was awful, and I suppose he was part of my non-human, but I don't really have one anymore. We have a pet hermit crab, but that's not really family. It's called Onken Crabbie, and it justs sits in its tank all day... Weird, I know. :L

**I have an idea about a new meme, possibly called Sample Saturday. Head over here to read more and fill in the form to tell me your thoughts. Thanks!

    Ohh that's so sad. I'm sorry to hear that. Even though I am not the ultimate dog lover, I was still upset when we had to put our 2 older dogs down. It's hard losing a pet.

    Here's my Hop and Follow Friday

    Have a GREAT weekend!

    I think that pretty much everyone I follow is a reader of paranormal/supernatural. I love it!

    Sorry to hear about your bunny. I hate it when my pets die. It's amazing how much a part of your life they become.

    Thanks for checking out and following my blog. Turns out I've been a follower of your blog for some time now. Keep up the good work. Plus I do agree that the Blog Hop's question for the week was a tough one to answer. I think all readers just read what ever they like.

    Just hopping by. I love YA, too - especially of the paranormal variety. It's a great escape from reality.

    Thanks for stopping by Reading Lark. I'm a new follower. :)

    I have eight hermit crabs, so I can relate on the weirdness/boredom to the extreme factor. :P
