Just stumbled across this one, and I added some questions of my own.

A book that made you cry: The Notebook, by Nicolas Sparks. I read this over a lunch break. I had to stop reading after every other page because I couldn’t keep from crying. I was afraid people at work would think something was wrong.

A book that scared you: I can’t think of a book that ever scared me. I’ve read quite a few horror books, but none actually scared me.

A book that made you laugh: Undead and Unwed, by MaryJanice Davidson. A 30 year-old, 6-foot, blonde vampire, with a love for shoes, who thinks blood is disgusting… I can definitely relate to the Betsy, except for the whole vampire thing. And this series continues to get better with each book. I love MJ’s sense of humor!

A book that disgusted you: The Grapes of Wrath, by John Steinbeck. I just remember reading the first chapter back in Jr. High. I wanted to read it because it was a classic. But the first few pages disgusted me so much I didn’t want to continue.

A book you loved in elementary school: The Nancy Drew series. Oh, how I wanted to be a girl detective!

A book you loved in middle school: The Girl With the Silver Eyes, by Willo Davis Roberts. How cool would it be to be able to move things with your mind?! After reading this book, I guarantee you’ll try staring at something really hard to see if you can get it to move. ;)

A book you loved in high school: Pretty much anything Star Trek. But one of my favorites was Reunion, by Michael Jan Friedman and Dave Stern. I loved the vivid descriptions and the characters came alive to me. There were some pretty cool aliens as well. No, I didn’t date much in high school.

A book you hated in high school: Besides my textbooks, Gone With the Wind, by Margaret Mitchell. I read this one after watching the movie. And I found that I disliked the characters even more than I did while watching the movie. I really can’t stand Scarlett.

A book you loved in college: Art and Fear, by David Bayles. This was a textbook in an illustration class. My professor challenged us to not be afraid of failure. Interesting book.

A book that challenged your identity: Besides the Bible, another book that really impacted me on a personal level was When God Whispers Your Name, by Max Lucado.

A series that you love: Sooo many, but one of my favorites is the Noble Dead series, by Barb and J.C. Hendee. They don’t come fast enough for me.

Your favorite horror book: The Scent of Shadows: The First Sign of the Zodiac, by Vicki Pettersson. I’d call it more urban fantasy than horror, but it’s dark enough to be in the “horror” category.

Your favorite science fiction book: Another hard decision, but one of them would be Area 51, by Robert Doherty. Action-packed and reads like you’re watching a movie. Fantastic series.

Your favorite fantasy book: The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe, by C.S. Lewis. This is another one that can make me cry too.

Your favorite mystery book: And Then There Were None, by Agatha Christie. Actually, anything by Agatha Christie.

Your favorite biography: The Hiding Place, by Corrie Ten Boom. Powerful book that I read as a teen. It challenged my faith and made me wonder what I’d do if I was ever persecuted for my faith.

Your favorite “coming-of-age” book: Eragon, by Christopher Paolini. I just read it last year, and now it tops on my list of fantasy books.

Your favorite classic: The Count of Monte Cristo. Also, my favorite book of all time, as many of you know by now.

Your favorite romance book: I’m going to have to go with The Notebook, by Nicolas Sparks.

Your favorite book not on this list: To not repeat books that I’ve already mentioned in other lists, I’ll go with The Misenchanted Sword, by Lawrence Watt-Evans. Mixing not-so-subtle humor into a wonderful fantasy world, I loved this story.
