A to Z Survey


Author you’ve read the most books from:
R.L. Stine - must be all those Goosebumps I read with my son and adding in the Fear streets I read as a teenager!

Go to your account, hit “my books”and on the left hand side under your shelves you will see “most read authors”)
Best Sequel Ever:

Currently Reading:
Drink of Choice While Reading:
Depends on my mood. Many times an ice cold glass of soda. Sometimes iced tea. Many times hot tea of different varieties (loose leaf preferred). Other times it's my Starbucks craving of the double cinnamon latte
E-reader or Physical Book?
Physical for me
Fictional Character You Probably Would Have Actually Dated In High School:

Preferred Place To Read:
On the porch when it's cool outside, windy, or raining.
If it's very cold, in a hot bath.
I also love reading by water and the lake but it's been years.
If indoors I prefer a plush recliner with a snug blanket.
Quote that inspires you/gives you all the feels from a book you’ve read:

“I've found that there is always some beauty left -- in nature, sunshine, freedom, in yourself; these can all help you.”
Anne Frank, The Diary of a Young Girl
