This or That Book Tag

I've recently seen Grace at Rebel Mommy Book Blog and Aleen at Lampshade Reader do this tag so I figured I would join in. The tag was originally created by Ayunda at Tea & Paperbacks.

READING ON THE COUCH OR IN BED?

Definitely not the bed. I've never been able to read comfortably in bed so I'll take the couch. 

Or, preferably, my big comfy chair in the library.

MALE MAIN CHARACTER OR FEMALE MAIN CHARACTER?

Male main character. Because there seems to be so many fewer of them - and because

I love being inside the main male character's head.

    

SWEET SNACKS OR SALTY SNACKS WHILE READING?

I rarely snack while reading but if I do it's always something salty/savory. 

I basically have no sweet tooth.

TRILOGIES OR QUARTETS?

Trilogies. 

FIRST PERSON POV OR THIRD PERSON POV?

First Person POV. Always!

BOOKS THAT MAKE YOU LAUGH OR BOOKS THAT MAKE YOU CRY?

At the risk of sounding like a total masochist, I always prefer a book that has me 

so emotionally invested that I cry more than a book that can make me laugh.

      

READING AT NIGHT OR IN THE MORNING?

I'm am *not* a night owl so reading at night rarely lasts long (Zzzz....).

I'm a total morning person so reading during the day always suits me best.

LIBRARIES OR BOOKSTORES?

Nothing beats time spent browsing in a bookstore.

BLACK BOOK COVERS OR WHITE BOOK COVERS?

There is such a glut of black book covers that I find myself more drawn 

to the clean aesthetic of white covers.

      

CHARACTER-DRIVEN OR PLOT-DRIVEN STORIES?

Character-driven. I'm always, always about the characters.

Without characters I can connect to, I'm not even invested in the plot.

HOW ABOUT YOU? 

WOULD YOU RATHER A BOOK MAKE YOU LAUGH OR CRY?

WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE SNACK WHILE READING?
