1. Your childhood favouriteThe Little House on the Prairie series
2. Your current favouriteThe Wheel of Time series
3. Your top five authorsRobert Jordan, Terry Pratchett, Laurell K. Hamilton, Laurie Halse Anderson, Edgar Allen Poe
4. Book(s) you’re reading nowBetsy the Vampire Queen, A Grim Pact, From Where I Sit: Making my way with cerebral palsy
5. Book(s) you’ve pretended to readPretty much every required HS reading assignment I pretended to read, BS'd my way thru the work, then read later on on my own time and at my own pace. I pretty much did it to spite my teachers. I have issues with authority...
6. Book(s) you’ve bought for the coverI can honestly say that I don't think I've ever done that. I've bought new copies of books I've read or owned because they redid the cover art or and/or binding style, but I've never bought a book I've never read simply because I liked the cover.
7. Book you’re a champion forI get defensive about any books that go under fire. But the one I've gotten most riled up about has been The DaVinci Code. I love the book. It has amazing detail and thoughts, but IT IS A WORK OF FICTION. FICTION, people!!!
8. Book that changed your life3 of them. An Unquiet Mind, Speak, and The Book of Mormon.
9. Book you most want to read again for the first timeSpeak and An Unquiet Mind. Most definitely.
10. Book you turn to for comfortProbably my scriptures. Or Speak. Sometimes both.
I have never read Little House on the Prairie books, but I loved the TV series.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with you about DaVinci Code. I love that book, and one has to admire Brown's code writing and excitement skills. And you are right...so many people forget to look at the sign which says "FICTION"
