not tagged, but sharing anyway....

I saw this cool meme over at Creativity Prompt (been a bit slack, havent been there for awhile, some cool projects happening!) so I thought I would share... (excuse my lack of punctuation, children randomly pounding on the keyboard has turned on some "quick find" link, and being the computer illiterate that I am, I cant figure out how to make it go away!)

What was the last book you bought?

Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Piccoult

Name a book you have read MORE than once?

Lord of the Flies of William Goldberg

How do you choose a book?

recommendations and/or reviews

Do you prefer fiction or non-fiction?

I enjoy reading both.

What's more important, great writing, or great plot?

without great writing, a great plot is useless (have you read The DaVinci Code by Dan Brown? case in point.

What books are on your bedside table right now?

Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Piccoult
The Post Birthday World by Lionel Shriver
Lottery by Patricia Wood (bookclub selection for December)
The Creative Family by Amanda Blake Soule

What was the last book you read? How long ago?

The Mephisto Club by Tess Gerritsen, last week

Have you ever given up reading a book?

Yep, regularly... Catch-22 springs to mind, and lots of "older" fiction one of the girls at bookclub is always choosing!

  2. I've definitely given up reading a book before. I once tried reading through that list of books the NY Times came out with: top 100 books of the 20th century. Quit on several of them...*blush*
