Book Blogger Hop #5
Today’s Question(s) is …
Which do you prefer to be known as: a voracious reader or a book nerd?
My Answer(s) is …
Honestly, I’m okay with either. However, I don’t read nearly as many books as most book bloggers because I’m a slow reader. Because of that, some people may not think I qualify as a voracious reader. It’s okay, though. I really like the idea of being a book nerd.
What about you? What do you prefer to be known as?
I’m a slow reader too. I read maybe one or two books a week and am happy with that.
Have a great weekend!

I think one or two books a week is great. I can usually get one book read in a week if I concentrate, but two is pushing it for me. LOL.
Voracious Reader, I’m not a huge fan of the word “nerd.” I prefer geek.
I can understand that. I prefer geek over nerd too. However, I don’t mind “book nerd” for some reason. 😀
Voracious reader fits me best, I think. https://bonniereadsandwrites.com/2022/11/11/book-blogger-hop-are-you-a-voracious-reader-or-a-booknerd/
Cool. I know a lot of voracious readers. I wish I could read as many, as fast, or as often as my friends and blogger buddies. 😀
I’m not really either although I used to be a voracious reader. I still read as much as I can but for some reason, it makes me sleepy. I would call myself a book lover.
I understand. Reading has started to make me sleepy too, especially if I haven’t had a good night’s sleep. I like “book lover.” It’s clear and says exactly what it means. 😀
I choice bibliophile. I didn’t think those words best describe me as someone who likes books.
Bibliophile is a good one. It’s like book lover but more fun. 😀
Probably the same. 🙂 I think as book bloggers we’re probably ALL voracious readers compared to the general populace haha, but I often read a lot slower than other bloggers too (or I should say I don’t read as many books). Some bloggers that read a dozen or more a month- I am in awe. 🙂
Glad you liked the Dune covers BTW. Man, that post is giving me fits. I posted it only to find that some of the stuff I thoguht I had saved… wasn’t. So I had to try to redo it all. Gah.
Have a nice weekend 🙂 ..
I’m sorry you’re having trouble with your post. That’s the worst. I’m glad I got to see the covers before it started having issues. 😀 I hope you get it fixed soon.
I’m also in awe of the bloggers who can read dozens or more each month. I’m doing good if I can read 4-6 books each month. I normally read only 1-3 because of something or other. LOL.
I’m a slow reader as well. It always amazes me when I see that some people read several books in one week. I have a goal to read an entire book in one day sometime by the end of this year, but I won’t do that too often because I’ll be mentally exhausted and I won’t get anything else done. I’m lucky if I finish one book in a week. But I think someone can be a slow reader and still be considered a voracious reader. 🙂
I’ve read a book in a day once. It was THE FAULT IN OUR STARS. I was trying to get it done before my friends and I went to the movie that evening. Fortunately, it was a fast book, but I didn’t get much out of it and ended up liking the movie better. If I had taken my time with it, I think I would’ve liked it better. 😀
I’m also always amazed when others can read more than one book a week. I rarely finish or even start a second book in the same week.
I read everyday but I too am a slow reader. I would love to read as many books as some of the other book bloggers that I follow. I consider myself a book nerd. 🙂
I try to read every day, but I haven’t been since earlier this year. When I get frazzled or depressed, reading is the first thing to go. 🙁
Yeah, they both mean book lovers, and voracious makes me think of speed, but it’s good to be either! Thanks for stopping by! Happy reading!
It is good to be either. 😀 I just don’t identify as one.
