If you could trade places with any character from a book for a day, who would you be and why?
If I could be any character from a book, I would want to be Rose from Vampire Academy, mainly because, hello, she gets to fall in love with Dimitri! Plus, she has all these guys chasing after her. Rose's life seems to never have a dull moment. She''s always speaking what's on her mind, and doesn't hold back. I'd love to be her for a day!
What is the last book you read? Would you suggest it to a friend? Why or why not?
The last book I read was SHIVER, and yes, I would recommend it to a friend. In fact, I already have.
Name three characters from a book that you'd like to invite to your birthday party.
Adrian Ivashkov, Magnus Bane, and Jacob Black!
Do you have a favorite quote from a book? If so, what is it?
I have lots of favorite quotes. One of them is: "You put on a good face, and most of the time you do stay in control. But sometimes you can't. And sometimes. . . Sometimes you don't want to."
Tell us about your top three favorite books of all time.
TWILIGHT, SUMMER IN THE CITY, and VAMPIRE ACADEMY.
If you had the opportunity to meet any author (dead or alive), who would you choose to meet, and what three questions would you ask him/her?
I'd want to meet Richelle Mead, and the three questoins I'd ask her are:
Are Rose and Dimitri going to end up together?
In your next YA series, are any characters from VA going to be in it?
Will Lyssa and Christian make up?
What movies have you seen that were based on books? Did you like the book or film version better? Why?
Twilight - The book had much more detail, captured more emotion.
A Walk to Remember - The book made me cry more.
The Notebook - The movie was more interesting.
Loves Comes Softly - I had a better understanding of the movie.
Tell us about your favorite book series.
I have quite a few favorites, but the one I'm really into right now is SHIVER. Only the first book is out right now, but I read it and totally fell in love with the characters. They're really believable and the relationship between Grace and Sam is so complex, yet they're perfect together.

If you could trade places with any character from a book for a day, who would you be and why?
I would trade places with Hazel in PRETTY LITTLE DEVILS because their world sounds so unreal to me, and I love reading that book over and over again.
What is the last book you read? Would you suggest it to a friend? Why or why not?
The last book I read was a Gossip Girl novel but I don''t remember the title. Yes, I would recommend it because I honestly believe that books are better than TV shows and movies.

Hazel, Harry Potter, and Stanley Yelnats.
What movies have you seen that were based on books? Did you like the book or film version better? Why?
