Sophie’s Heart by Lori Wick
Do you use a bookmark or dog-ear your pages? Bookmarks are whatever is handy.
What is your favorite quote from a book you have read?
“Where you tend a rose, a thistle cannot grow.” Secret Garden By Frances Hodgson Burnett (But I have to say, Charlotte Mason has some pretty quotable stuff!!!!)
“Don’t judge a book by its cover” is a fitting idiom when buying or choosing a book to read, so besides the cover of a book, what else draws you to choose a specific book you have not read?
Recommendations, book lists, recognize the author, and winners or certain years or awards.
If you could, what changes would you make to a book you have read? (eg title, ending, characters)
Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leorux. Christine Daae should have run for the hills and began a new life.
If you ever write a book what will the title be? Probably, #myoneweakness but like I said, I’ll let Chautona Havig do my writing for me.
