01. A fictional character you identify with and why.
Marianne Dashwood
I'm a lot like her in the way that I tend to romanticize things :)
02. Your earliest memory of reading or being read to.
Either my mom reading The Tub People
or my Aunt reading Stephanie's Ponytail.
03. Your favourite book aged 9 ½, or 13 ¾, whichever you remember best.
The Felicity American Girl books.
04. The book that’s been on your shelves the longest.
Junie B. Jones Has a Monster Under Her Bed
05. A book you acquired in some interesting way
The way I got this book isn't as interesting as when I got the book.
I got Junie B., First Grader Toothless Wonder on Easter morning, but the funny part is: that as I was racing to see what was in my Easter basket I lost a tooth.
06. A book with a story for you, that reminds you of something specific in your life (a person, a place, a time).
The A Life of Faith books make me think of my sister because she read the whole series aloud to me.
07. What fictional character are you (secretly) in love with
A lot, but If I told it wouldn't be a secret any more, would it? :)
08. The last book you acquired, and how (begged, bought, borrowed?)
Kilmeny of the Orchard
My sister and I got it today from The Paperback Book Swap
09. Your current read, your last read and the book you’ll read next.
I'm currently reading The Two Towers and I uh... *cough* don't remember the last book I read. :o
I would like to read The Return Of The King next
but it may have to wait till after Great Expectations (I have to read it for school)
10. What author do you own the most books by and why?
Janette Oke
Hayden and I used to help out at a church library and they gave all their extra books to us. They had a lot by her. A lot.
These are more questions; I don't know if I'll get around to them or not though.
11. Do you own multiple copies of any book? What are they? Why do you have multiple copies?
12. Book borrowing – do you use the library? Do you prefer to try before you buy? What about lending your books to friends? Are you a good borrower, do you remember to return books?
13. Do you reread a lot? Why (not)? Name a book you have reread many times.
14. What is the best book you’ve read in the past year?
15. Do you recommend books to other people? If you could force everyone you know to read one book, what would it be?
16. Adaptation: What book would you most like to see made into a film? Do you like to read the book first or see the film? Any books you have read after seeing the film version?
17. What is the most difficult book you’ve ever read?
18. Your favourite book series & your favourite book out of that series
19. Your favourite picture, junior fiction and Young Adult books
20. Least favourite plot device employed by way too many books you actually enjoyed otherwise
21. A book you thought you wouldn’t like but ended up loving
22. Your "comfort" book
23. Favourite book cover including a picture!
24. Favourite fictional relationship (romantic, friendship, familial)
25. Most annoying character ever
26. Most quotable novel or 5 of your favourite quotes from any books.
27. Any five books from your "to be read" stack. What makes you select a book for your “to be read” stack?
28. Some firsts: First book you remember loving/being obsessed with. First book that made you cry. First book you gave to someone else as a gift.
29. Saddest character death OR best/most satisfying character death (or both!)
30. The End: do you prefer everything tied up or to be able to 'make up your own mind'? What is the worst ending to a book you have read? And the best? (careful, spoiler tags!)
