Answering a few questions?
Just for funsies sake or to converse about it?

1. What book are you reading right now? How is it so far?
2. Is question 1. grammatically correct? 
3. Last movie you have watched? What's your verdict on that movie?
4. What are you going to have for dinner tonight?
5. Mondays; Yay or nay?

My answers:

1. Blue Monday by Nicci French.

1. I just finished a Swedish book (in Finnish!) last night, so currently not reading anything. It was okay. Kind of easy reading. Nothing life-changing. Sorry, no idea if it's been translated into English (and I don't remember the name of the writer!), but it's about an Iranian family living in Sweden. Today I will start a Townes Van Zandt bio I got in the mail the other day. Can't wait.

2. Why/how would it be wrong? Seems perfectly okay to me?

3. The Descendants. It was pretty tough, as the subject of losing a parent/spouse was a little too close to home. So I cried a lot. But George Clooney is dreamy, there's no denying it.

4. Risotto leftovers from last week. The risotto was made by my French couchsurfers.

5. Weekdays don't mean much to me, to be honest! Sometimes Monday is my day off, sometimes it isn't. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it isn't. Etc.

1. If all books where live-changing, we wouldn't know who we were anymore I guess.
I honestly have no clue who Townes Van Zandt is, apart from that the name sounds Dutch to me..

2. What/Which always bothers me.

4. Hmm Risotto! With mushrooms?

aaa...now I see why you asked about the sentence, if it was correct. Well, What book are you readings sounds better than Which book. I think "which" is rather use, like, if someone says "i'm going to pick a flower." "which one?" I mean "which book are you reading right now" might imply that there are several books available one wanted to read, and one picked a book already and you want to know which one, assuming that you knew he had several options. (did I make you @_@ already?:)) )

Actually your explanation is the best one i've heard so far.
I have to "See" the reason why something is done, while language usually isn't really visual grammar-wise. You visualized it perfectly for me. Thanks!

1. Haha, very true.

Townes Van Zandt was an American country/folk musician who I've been absolutely obsessed with for the past 1,5 years and the past few months especially. And yeah, his family obviously came from the NL. He's so fucking divine I just don't get it.

2. I think maiden_mist's explanation makes perfect sense! Grammatically I'm sure both are correct, but in the context of your question "what" is the word to choose!

3. Yeah it had some! Very good.
