Erika's Book Survey

1. What is one of your favorite books and why?

One of my favorite books is "I Know This Much is True." I was really moved by Lamb's use of imagery and language. I really loved that I felt like I knew the characters. Even though the book is approx. 1000 pages, it seemed like a quick read...I was that into it.

2. Who is your favorite author?
I am not sure. It is hard to say Wally Lamb because he only has two novels. I think that one of my favorite authors is Amy Tan. It is my asian background that attaches me to her. lol.

3. Do you prefer male or female authors?

Typically, I prefer males. I have no idea why.


4. What was the last book that you read? What did you think of the book?

Oh gosh. Dreams of my Father...some book by Barack Obama. I was not impressed.

5. What is your favorite genre?

Fiction. In particular, drama. Not beach books. Not romantic novels.


6. What book (if any) did you not enjoy reading? Why?

Wow, I hate Flannery O' Conner. I know that I shouldn't hate, but I really do hate her writing.


7. List 3-5 books that you would like to read.

1. "Beloved" by Toni Morrison
2. "My Sister's Keeper" Jodi Picoult (Spelling?)
3. "Their Eyes Were Watching God"
4. "Lolita"

These are in no specific order. :o)

I can't wait to read your surveys. Enjoy!
