I'm gonna say Stars Above, purely because I finished Winter the other day and I believe it's a collection of the novellas and it features an epilogue which I need to read.

What book do you think everyone needs to read?


message 10: by Talia (new)

Talia Nyx Orphan #8 it's an incredible fiction based on fact.

Q: What is your book obsession, that you reread faithfully every year?

A: I was wondering how long it might take for Harry Potter to appear. I wouldn't say it's an obsession. I think YA fiction in general is, but I will always reread it whenever an opportunity arises and time allows.

Q: Audiobook or Book-in-hand?


Carol She's So Novel꧁꧂  | 1372 comments Mod
Book in hand although I may be trying an audio soon.

Dead tree or ebook?

I feel bad for answering this but it's a dead tree for me. There is something about how a book smells and the feel of a well read paperback.

Specifically with book to film adaptations,

Do you read the book first or watch the movie first?


Carol She's So Novel꧁꧂  | 1372 comments Mod
I've done both happily.

Favourite genre in fiction?


message 15: by Sharlene (new)

Sharlene (sharlenehuriwai) | 595 comments Mod
I will happily read anything Contemporary YA or NA so that's probably my fave bit I like a little Fantasy here and there. I'm getting into fairytale re-tellings, like Cinder. Enough about me...

Most memorable childhood book?

Miss Happiness and Miss Flower by Rumer Godden by Rumer Godden. I'm hoping a copy turns up at work- preferably with this cover. I loved Japanese dolls. I never owned a copy but I used to take it out of the library several times a year!
