friday 5: books & reading
these are ones i suggested a few weeks ago. this is like the 5th(?) a set of mine was used.
if you want to suggest a set of questions, go here.
1. Most everyone will recommend a book or two to read, but are there any you would tell people to avoid?
the painted queen, the last of the amleia peabody series. sg-1 novel the power behind the throne by steven savile. the deus machine by pierre ouellette.
2. If you take a book on vacation, are you more likely to take something you haven't read yet or an old favorite?
i don't take books on vacation, but if i did it would be something new.
3. Do you read any genres by the season? Like horror around Halloween? Cozy Mysteries in the Winter? Romance in the Summer?
i don't do this.
4. If you read a lot of Fiction do you prefer an author that has a series with the same character(s), or do you prefer stand-alone stories?
in theory, a series with the same character(s) allows you to get to know them & generate interesting in reading more about them. but in practice, if you miss one book you may not have any idea what is going on.
5. Is there a book that you wish you could read again, but experience it like it was the first time?
i'm not sure. i'd like to have read the amelia peabody series (not the last one) in order.
