Re: Exchange peeps, a poll for you

  • 1. What genre do you prefer to read? I lean more toward fantasy and historical fiction but there are lots of things I like. You can find me on goodreads, too: https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/234777-deena

    2. Is there a genre or genres you do NOT like? Not into romance or war-themed books.

    3. Would you prefer a Halloween-type book or something else? I'm down with Halloween books and I have several on my wish list but I'm not 100% attached to them.
     
    4. What is your favorite Halloween treat? I love chocolate. I go toward milk chocolate, and caramel or peanut butter are my preferred fillings but coconut is yummy, too. Chocolate covered toffee is my ultimate fave.

    5. What treat will you absolutely NOT eat? (Include any allergies, too.) Black licorice is of the devil. Blech! I also won't eat fake chocolate...you know, the kind where the box or bag says "chocolate-flavored" whatnot? Ew. I'm looking at you, Russell Stover. Real Chocolate or nothing!

    6. Do you have a pet? If so, what and would they like a treat, too? I have three cats and they love catnip. As for food treats I have to give mine Greenies because one of them barfs up anything else. She's special.

  • 1. What genre do you prefer to read? Fantasy mostly but I'm trying to branch out a little bit.

    2. Is there a genre or genres you do NOT like? Not a horror fan

    3. Would you prefer a Halloween-type book or something else? Something else, please.  I believe my Elfster wishlist is up to date! :) But I would be happy with mostly anything!

    4. What is your favorite Halloween treat?  Reeces Pieces are my favorite. And Jelly Bellies

    5. What treat will you absolutely NOT eat? (Include any allergies, too.) I have Celiac, so gluten is a no go for me. I also don't eat chocolate. Weird, I know!

    6. Do you have a pet? If so, what and would they like a treat, too? I have cats and fish, if you want to treat them, sure!

  • 1. What genre do you prefer to read? I read it all and I do have a wishlist on Goodreads of books I don't own, but I also really like to be surprised - getting another Nestie's favorite book is always awesome 

    2. Is there a genre or genres you do NOT like? I don't read PNR and typically stay away from romance/erotica/NA

    3. Would you prefer a Halloween-type book or something else? Spooky books are always great, and I love monster and ghost stories but demons freak me out, so no evil spirits please :)

    4. What is your favorite Halloween treat? Chocolate anything

    5. What treat will you absolutely NOT eat? (Include any allergies, too.) No nuts for me

    6. Do you have a pet? If so, what and would they like a treat, too? I've got the two danes and a new kitten and they like treats, but certainly do not require them (Chief is currently in love with a rubber fork that my mom found in her garage and Dexie plays exclusively with an old dish towel.  They're spoiled with love, but we don't spend a lot on toys or food treats)

  • 1. What genre do you prefer to read?  I like YA, NA, Fantasy, but am willing to give anything a try. 

    2. Is there a genre or genres you do NOT like?  I don't generally gravitate toward non-fiction books. I won't read any books about dementia or Alzheimer's. 

    3. Would you prefer a Halloween-type book or something else? I don't mind spooky, but would not want to read anything too scary. 

    4. What is your favorite Halloween treat?  Lindt truffles are my favorite, although not necessarily for Halloween. I will eat them any time.  :)

    5. What treat will you absolutely NOT eat? (Include any allergies, too.) I don't care for candy corn or peeps. 

    6. Do you have a pet? If so, what and would they like a treat, too? I have a 2 year old German Shorthaired pointer mix named Scout.  I don't mind if someone sends him a treat, if they want to.  Just no rawhides please. He is weird about them. He doesn't chew them up, but enjoys hiding them in random places around the house and outside.  He whimpers as he runs around trying to find a spot for them.
