Q: Do you skip ahead in a book? Do you feel badly about it when you do?

A: I never skip ahead in a book. Sometimes I REALLY want to but I'm always afraid that I'm gonna miss something really important or funny. And I think I would feel bad if I just skipped a part in a book. I would feel like I didn't really read the whole and cheated in some way.

Do you carry books with you when you’re out and about in the world?

And, do you ever try to hide the covers?

I do carry books with me. I always take my book to work so that I can read during my breaks. I also take a book with me to family members houses just because I always end up bored there. Also, when I was in school last year, I always had a book with me. I would read in between class assignments and would get in trouble for it all the time.

I will admit that I do try and hide the covers sometimes. I don't know why. I just don't want people seeing what I'm reading. Like I said, I don't really know why. Its just something that I automatically do.

Q: You’ve just had a long, hard, exhausting day, and all you want to do is curl up with something light, fun, easy, fluffy, distracting, and entertaining. What book do you pick up?

A: Honestly, when I have an exhausting day, any book is good for me to curl up with. Books are my escape from reality. They make me forget about my problems and worries and let me live a life thats not mine. Books in general relax me.

Q:  What’s the last book you were really EXCITED to read?

And, were you excited about it in advance? Or did the excitement bloom while you were reading it?

Are there any books you’re excited about right NOW?

A: The last book I was really excited to read was Forever by Maggie Stiefvater. I'd been excited for it since last year when Linger was released. As soon as I was done reading it, I immediately became anxious for Forever.

Right now, the book that I'm most excited for is Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver. Its the sequel to Delirium. It was so good and I cannot wait to know what's going to happen next.

Q: What’s the first book that you ever read more than once? (I’m assuming there’s at least one.)

What book have you read the most times? And how many?

A: The book I've read the most times is The Outsiders by S. E. Hinton

It was the first book I ever owned. I've read it around 5 times. I love it so much that I can recite the whole first page my memory.

Q: There are so many crappy biographies … would you rather read a poorly-written biography of a fascinating life, OR an exquisitely well-written, wonderful read of one of a not-so-interesting life?

A: I think I would rather read a well written biography than a poorly written one. Because no matter how fascinating the life is, if its poorly written it won't be able to keep my attention as well as on that's exquisitely well written.

Q: What animal-related books have you read? Which do you love? Do you have a favorite literary dog? (Snoopy, anyone?)

A: I have read Marley and Me, Water For Elephants, White Fang... Those are the first that come to my mind, I can't think of any other ones. I don't remember much of White Fang, but I loved Marley and Me and Water For Elephants. Those are two of my favorite books.
