Welcome back to the weekly questions! There will be questions like these almost every week! I will say thank you to the people who answer to my questions! So, let's get started! 1) What was the best book you've read in 2019 so far? 2) What is the best movie or song that you've seen or heard in 2019? 3) Riddle: How many bricks does it take to complete a 2,000 square foot building made of entirely brick? Prize if you get the right answer I will follow you( sorry if I forget, but I won't)! The answer to the riddle will come out next Tuesday or Thursday!

embrace is the best book i really like aftertaste shawn mendes i know its kinda old but i still like it 1 brick its made entirely of brick

1) The War that Saved my Life 2) Spider Verse 3). Hmmm... 1?

I read Doll Hospital by Joan Holub,I watched Bird Box (on New Years Eve ),I heard Friends by Bebe Rexha.The answer is probaly would take 2,000 bricks because its a 2,000 squarefoot building.

I wish I was a math whiz but I know what the square root of 144 is!

1. I've only read one so far ;-b "The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom" 2. Hmm well Avengers Infinity War came out on Netflix so that was a great movie...I also heard the song Havana by Kidz Bop 3. hmm maybe 4,000,000 (2,000 squared)

My answers are, 1) The Blood Olympus 2) The Whisper of the heart, and Rise Up by Andra Day 3) I can't tell you guys!

!!!! You like whisper of the heart!!!

1. Hunger Games. I loved it. 2. Age of Adeline. 3. One. You didn't say how big the brick was.

1. A book called Nil 2. I hadn't really watched much movies yet, oh wait i watched incredibles 2 for the first time - it was awesome - song, i do 3. Hmmm, I usually over think these so... 2,000? Idk lol

Yay! Thanks for having the questions! 1. Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Foer 2. Song: We Never Change by Coldplay (my new favorite band!) and movie: I haven't watched a whole lot of movies yet, just mostly Hallmark movies! 3. Plan on 7 bricks per square foot. If you define an average sized house as about 1,200 square feet, the perimeter of the house might be approximately 146 linear feet (25′ x 48′). Multiply that by a height of 8 feet to get a total square wall footage of 1,168. At 7 bricks per square foot, you'll need about 8,176 bricks.-quoted from Google (;

1: Lunar Chronicles series, thought the books "The Nightmarys"and "Aru Shah and the Sands of Time" came close! 2: I haven't really seen any new movies except for West Side Story, so I'm going to have to go with that! 3: Assuming that the bricks are about eight inches long, it will take 13714 bricks, rounded up. (Took a crazy guess with my math!) Thanks for the questions @applemango!!

Oh also the bricks are three inches wide! Forgot to add that, sorry!

And plus no looking the riddle up!

Hi guys, little sad no one answered but, happy that lot's of you gave me a like! The answer for the riddle is....one! The last one complete's the building!
