Drink of Choice While Reading:
Cherry Coke Zero or Water are my two drinks.
E-reader or Physical Book?
I have a Nook and I LOVE it, but when I actually buy a book, I miss having the hard copy on my shelf. I usually go for Nook Books, though.
Fictional Character You Probably Would Have Actually Dated In High School:
Peeta Melark. No explanation needed.
Glad You Gave This Book A Chance:
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. I heard about this book forever and wavered back and forth about it. I finally broke down and bought it. I loved it and passed it on to everyone in my family and they all loved it – including both my parents. My sister also became a staff writer on the largest Hunger Games fansite: http://mockingjay.net/
Hidden Gem Book:
Below the Root by Zilpha Keatley Snyder. The first – and by far my favorite –of the Green Sky trilogy. I read this is a kid and then again just this year and it’s amazing. I don’t think I came even close to understanding the underlying themes of it when I was a kid.
Important Moment in your Reading Life:
Downloading a Nook App for my iPod. It really got me reading again, after years of not doing it.
Just Finished:
Sisterland by Curtis Sittenfeld.
Kinds of Books You Won’t Read:
I generally don’t like Non-Fiction. Or Historical Fiction that focuses on real life people. I have a hard time reconciling make-believe conversations and circumstances of real people.
Longest Book You’ve Read:
Fragments by Dan Wells – 564pages. It could’ve been about 300 pages less.
Major book hangover because of:
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn. It took me a long time to decide if I loved or hated the ending.
Number of Bookcases You Own:
3. One of them contains movies, though. And I’m counting my Nook as a bookshelf. It has over 200 books on it that I don’t own in print.
One Book You Have Read Multiple Times:
Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen.
Preferred Place To Read:
My couch.

“Everything is becoming so shabby these days. So lacking in worth. I just don’t like feel joining the trend.” – Fenton Wood-Lacey turning down a hook-up in The Passing Bells by Phillip Rock
