  1. Do you use read apps and/or devices? Let us know which do you recommend.
Not yet, but I'm thinking about buying an ipad. I've tried reading books on my pc and iphone but I don't enjoy reading on these kinds of screens. I would to hear what others think and recommend for this question.
  1. Have you read any short stories recently, which one?
Alice Munro's 'Too Much Happiness'. Normally I love her short stories but this selection was just too sad and depressing. I also like William Trevor for short stories.

The book I want to be buried with is Vikram Seth's 'A Suitable Boy' and the book I've read the most often is 'Pride and Prejudice'.

I think it would have to be Jo March. As a child I wanted to be like her. I've always admired her spunk, independence and her ability to say what was on her mind.
  1. Do you have a favorite quote? From which book is it?
Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened. Dr Seuss
  1. Do you prefer ebooks or paperbacks, why?
I will always love paperbacks. I love the feel of them, the smell of them, the pleasure of flicking through the pages, the way they fit into my hand (and heart)! I will use e-books for work, for convenience.
  1. Which books do you plan to read during this month?
'The Killables' by Gemma Malley, 'The End of Illness' by David B Agus, 'The Apothecary' by Maile Meloy, 'Why We Broke Up' by Daniel Handler & Maira Kalman and 'Bitter Greens' by Kate Forsyth
