10 Influential Books Tag

I have seen a lot of people talking about their top ten books that have influenced them in their life and I definitely find those so interesting! Here are my top ten most influential books in my life:

 Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling - When I first read this series, I didn't really like the first book, but I really fell in love with the series after this.

 The City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau - This book really got me hooked on dystopians and kept me thinking through the entire series.

 The Secret of the Old Clock by Carolyn Keene - Also known as Nancy Drew. I spent around a year of my life reading only Nancy Drew novels, but the original series is my favorite.

 Theodore Boone: Kid Lawyer by John Grisham - I read this book as child, but it put my levels up higher and really defined what I liked in a 'smart' book.

 The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins - Actually this entire series. It brought me to the realm of the fandom internet and put me on a very interesting journey. I love this story and its truth.

 The Interpretation of Dreams by Sigmund Freud - This book is a bit of a nerd problem, but it really got me interested in psychology, which would end up impacting a large portion of my life.

 1984 by George Orwell - I love this entire story and how it relates to real life. Seriously, it creeps me out how intense this book is!

 Bunheads by Sophie Flack - I quit dance because of an injury and I never really got over that until I read this book. It really showed me how dance can impact your life without being obsessed in this dance world.

 Night by Elie Wiesel - This book is just really important and incredibly powerful. It really showed me about the Holocaust and respecting people.

 Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher - The first book that really made me cry. It's just so important to my life and how it turned out, just once again, showing me how to treat other people.

Those are my top ten most influential books! What are some of yours?

Reading Habits Tag

This tag started out on Youtube, but I decided to bring the questions to my blog. Hopefully, this will also let you get to know me a little more too!

Now - onto the questions:

1. Do you have a certain place at home for reading? Not really. I generally wherever, when ever, but I prefer to read in my reading chair whenever possible. 
2. Bookmark or random piece of paper? BOOKMARK, all the way. I've used the same one for three years and I'd probably have a mental breakdown if I lost it. 
3. Can you just stop reading or do you have to stop after a chapter/ a certain amount of pages? I always stop at the end of a chapter. This has been a recent change. 
4. Do you eat or drink while reading? Sometimes. It's more plausible if I'm reading on my Kindle. 
5. Multitasking: Music or TV while reading? Music, no. TV, yes. Multitasking is life.
6. One book at a time or several at once? One book at a time. I barely have time to finish one a week, I have no idea how I would handle multiple plots. 
7. Reading at home or everywhere? Everywhere! I love reading in the car, waiting rooms, before my food arrives in the drive thru :p
8. Reading out lout or silently in your head? This is a major pet peeve, but I hate when people read out loud. It irritates me so much. So silently for me. 
9. Do you read ahead or even skip pages? Sometimes I look ahead, but I hate when I do that. 
10. Breaking the spine or keeping it like new? Breaking the spine. iT jUST hAPPENS, okay? okay. (that was a total TFIOS reference...)
11. Do you write in your books? No..no..no...i can't even. why would someone do this?

And that's the tag!
