The Chain | Adrian McKinty
post image

How quickly did I get through all of the book questions? Well, not very quickly but I tried! You can find my new video here: https://youtu.be/ZMArJIub0wQ

#bookquestions #booktube

EadieB @Butterflyamore Enjoyed the video again but I thought you had read The Chain because you tagged it. The questions were interesting. I agree with most of your answers. I'll go thru some of them: I enjoy physical books more than ebooks. I prefer hardback too but I do like the trade books for the same reason you do. I prefer thrift shopping or library sales for my books. I do buy some online but used ones. I like trilogies and series. I prefer hero. 5y
EadieB @Butterflyamore I also read Imaginary Friend and loved it. I sometimes use whatever is handy for a bookmark such as; boarding passes. I prefer used books. I usually tell everyone to read Shadow of the Wind one of my favorites. Top 3 genres Murder/Thrillers, phycological Thrillers and Historical Mystery. I borrow from the library but I should just read the books I own. I am plot-driven too. I usually read medium length books like you 300 to 400 pgs (edited) 5y

EadieB @Butterflyamore I enjoy short chapters too. I like books that make me scared but crying is good too. I like our world not into fantasy. I love audio books and always have one going. Love covers on books that attract me. I enjoy the book more than the movie. I don't watch many movies as I usually fall asleep during the movie. I read a lot of series but read a lot of standalones too. (edited) 5y
abookishbutterfly @EadieB Thanks for sharing your answers! I like that we have so much in common! I tagged The Chain because it is so popular right now so it will help with visibility for the post but I am reading it right now! I got it last night. I was pretty exhausted so I only made it into page 70 something but I‘m loving it so far! 5y
EadieB @Butterflyamore Good idea about tagging The Chain because it did get my attention. Yes we do have a lot in common. Glad to hear you have started The Chain. It is one of my favorites but a bit scary too. Let me know what you think of it when you are finished. 5y

LitLogophile Love them!! 7y
mcipher Anti - I always think they look wrinkled and crooked and the book feels weird to hold. 7y
RaimeyGallant I don't know a lot about them, but pro? 7y
DHill Anti. I think it makes the pages harder to turn. 7y
Scott_BookInvasion I love em. It makes the book have a bit more character and gives it more or a hand-crafted feel. Brings me feelings of the classic books from eras past 7y
Aims42 Team Pro 👍🏻 no real reason why, I just think they make the book look and feel fancier lol 7y
umbrellagirl PRO! Literally just started this and I noticed straight away. 7y
TimSpalding Proooooooo! 7y
kgriffith @umbrellagirl I‘ve had it since its release date and it has been taunting me. Finally started it tonight! 7y
RidgewayGirl I love deckled edges. It makes the book feel more substantial. 7y
Swe_Eva They look and feel nice, but it‘s easier to turn pages on non-deckled. 🤔 ♎️ 7y
kgriffith @mcipher fair points! 7y
kgriffith @Swe_Eva I‘ve not read many and I expected that going in, but I‘m actually finding them easier to turn. I lift from the bottom edge rather than the side, which may matter? There seems to be some air/space between the pages that isn‘t the case when they‘re flush. Like the difference between printer paper right out of a sleeve, and then after you‘ve fanned the edges to give the guide wheels a bit more tooth, if that makes sense? 7y
DebinHawaii Pro--they look so good! 😉 7y
rwmg Anti. I know all books used to be like that but it looks horrible to me, unfinished, the prinrer couldn't be bothered to do a food job 7y
rwmg Good job 7y
Swe_Eva @kgriffith That makes sense, but I turn from the side and tend to get more than 1 page at a time. Plus, I can‘t keep my hands still while I read and tend to smoosh the decking down, unintentionally (but that‘s my personal thing, so please feel free to disregard from argument 🤔🙄😂). 7y
rwmg I hate my new phone sometimes 7y
kgriffith @rwmg Ha, I fully appreciate your frustration 7y
kgriffith @Swe_Eva No disregard at all! This is exactly what I love about book discussion :) 7y
batsy @Swe_Eva My thoughts exactly 😆 7y

I‘m having a ton of fun seeing how people respond to my #Browsery question. So, Littens, I extend this question to you!

How is your day going? Answer in the form of a book title or plot.

I've been binge watching this show since Sunday lol. I'm so addicted!

I didn't know it was a book series though. Has anyone read this? And is it good?
