What is the last book you read? Would you suggest it to a friend? Why or why not?
The last book I read was INCARCERON, and I would definitely suggest it to a friend because the characters are really interesting and well developed. When reading this, you will not want to stop until you finish the whole book.
What movies have you seen that were based on books? Did you like the book or film version better? Why?
The Harry Potter movies are really great, but not so much the last two. They weren't really bad, but The Order of the Phoenix seemed kind of rushed and The Half-Blood Prince kind of changed what the book was really about. My favorite scenes to watch in the Potter series would be the scenes between Harry and Hermione. The actors have really great chemistry and I just love those two. They staircase scene in Half-Blood Prince shows how much they understood each other.
Tell us about your favorite book series.
Okay, my answer will point out that I am totally obsessed with this series but there is only one series that I love, and that would be the Harry Potter series. I just love it! These books are what got me really interested in reading at the age of 5 and introduced me to a completely new and magical world.
