Tamara asked Kristin Hannah:

First, I just have to comment on how amazingly written your books are. I was recommended Winter Garden a couple months ago and since then, I've been captivated with every single book of yours. Now as for my inquiries, I'd love to know what book(s) you're currently reading. Also, who is your favourite author and what is your favourite book? Thank you so much
