Have you ever read a book and had the perfect casting for a character?
Ben Browder is Jack Reacher. I don't know who this Tom Cruise guy thinks he is.
Do you prefer series or one-offs?
Both? It's kind of hard to stay away from series these days - even in non-genre fiction.
Is there a book character you think you are similar too?
Probably, but I'm still on my first cup of coffee and can't think of one at the moment.
Book you've been disappointed with this year?
Most recently I was disappointed by Cop ( ... )

I have zero interest in anything to do with Tom Cruise... but that right there just may make me want to read this series.

And.... that's what made me start reading it in the first place. It's not life changing or anything, but it is an entertaining action series with a reluctant hero.

I do think an actress I like ended up in the movie, but I just can't sit through Mapother!
