What was the last book you read?
Skin Game by Jim Butcher.

Of your favourite books, which one do you like to recommend to people?
Depends on the person and what they like. For fantasy fans, I usually go with Guy Gavriel Kay.

Which ones do you NOT like to recommend to people?
I don't think I have any favourite books that I'd never recommend. I mostly reserve that honour for books I detested.

Do you still own any books from your childhood?
Lots! The Anne of Green Gables series and Narnia and some of Little House on the Prairie and a bunch of others.

What are you reading now?
The Cocktail Waitress by James M. McCain. Mostly because it's from the same imprint as The Colorado Kid, which I really enjoyed.

Have you seen any recent movies that were books?
I don't think I've seen any movies recently.

If you hosted book club, what would you serve?
Assorted baked goods. Scones and cookies and cupcakes. And tea and coffee.

The books you mention owning from your childhood are ones I owned as well. Except I never actually read them :x So I recently donated Anne of Green Gables and the Little House books to Goodwill, as I know I'll never read them, but I saved my Narnia set. I still want to read it, but I'm sad I'm so far out of the demographic now.

Aww! I loved those books, but they're definitely not for everyone.

I haven't reread Narnia in a while, but I think it might hold up okay? Except the religious allegory part will probably be more evident to an adult than it was to me at age eight.

I think I may have liked them if I read them as a kid, but I know I wouldn't like them now, so ah well.
