Questions:



1. Where in the world do you live? I live in Toronto Canada :)
2. When and why did you start book blogging? I started blogging at the end of October 2011 for the simple fact that I love reading and sharing my love of the written word with everyone. Also it's come in handy since I read so many books now I can go back and see what I did and didn't like about the books I've read.
3. Who is your favourite author? I don't have a single favouirte author so I'll give my top 5, Clive Cussler. J.K. Rowling, Diana Gabaldon, Jean M. Auel and Janet Evanovich.
4. What was the novel that first ignited your love of reading? Oh lord I have no idea. I've had a library card since I was 3 so I don't think it was a particular book that ignighted my love of reading but a person who ignited it and that person is my Daddy. He instilled a great love of reading in me from a very early age and it's stayed with me.
5. If you had to choose one genre to read for the rest of your life, what would it be? I think I would choose historical fiction since I love history.
6. What book or series would you love to be made into a movie adaptation? Outlander by Diana Gabaldon.
7. Who is your ultimate fictional crush and why? Joe Morelli from the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich because he reminds me a lot of my  man :)
8. If you had the option of taking two random books by unknown authors or one of your favourite books, to a deserted island; which would you choose?  I love reading books by new authors but I'd take one of my favourites.
9. What was the last book you read that almost, or did, cause tears?



The Men Who Killed Me: Rwandan Survivors of Sexual Violence by Sandra Ka Hon Chu, Anne-Marie de Brouwer (Editor), Samer Muscati

  4. Sorry to hear you didn't like Never Let Me Go. I tried reading it but gave up because I had too much homework at the time. I guess I shouldn't mess with it again. :p
