- What was the last book you read? The last book I finished was Allegiant, the final of the Divergent Trilogy and Hacking Harvard (sort of finished them at the same time).
- Of your favourite books, which one do you like to recommend to people? Oh man, such a hard question. The Gone Series by Michael Grant, I feel not enough people have read this awesome series.
- Which ones do you NOT like to recommend to people? Divergent...like the first book sucked, but the rest were good. And some of the slower moving classics I've never been able to make it through.
- Do you still own any books from your childhood? Of course! Mostly Dr. Seuss, but yes. And Where the Sidewalk ends. They were all gifts from grandparents. The ones my mom got me are now property of the four year olds she teaches lol.
- What are you reading now? Currently I'm in the middle of two books A Game of Thrones the first in a Song of Fire and Ice and The Fall of Nine (I think that's the title, it's the most recent I believe in the I Am Number Four Series)
- Have you seen any recent movies that were books? The Fault in Our Stars...gotta say...not really thrilled. Divergent.
- If you hosted book club, what would you serve? Cookies. Punch. And some sort of chips and dip or nachos. And a veggie and fruit plate, maybe with ranch dipping sauce and yogurt dipping sauce.

A Song of Ice and Fire is next on my reread list once I finish Tolkien.

I personally liked Divergent. And thought everything else kind of went downhill from there.

hahaha, it took me forever to read it. I felt like it could have likely lost 200 pages and told the story in a less drawn out way. The others seemed to move at a good pace, and there was all the action, which maybe I like better, but I felt like it was written better....in the beginning of Allegiant it got all exposition like again and I got a bit bored again. Maybe I just don't like how she does exposition haha.
