Favourite authors? JK Rowling, John Saul Why did you join The Book Club Forum? Wanted to join a book club as there's none in my area. Would help me try to focus more on what I was reading so I'd absorb everything instead of thinking about things like lasagna until there's something "exciting" happening. How did you become a member of the Mod Squad? the what squad? o.O What is the most gratifying part of being staff at The Book Club Forum? they're quite friendly. I've only been here a few days though - but I'm sure I'll get to know them - when my nose isn't stuffed in a book that is. What makes you happiest about the site? I'll get to keep track of the books I've read and etc. Be fun to look back when I've read 1,000+ books and laugh when I was only 14 books in LOL. What is your favourite section of the Book Club Forum and why? I haven't really browsed around much. Just looked through a few forums like rules, book lists, and young adult books. Lemme edit my answer when I've cruised the whole site =) We all know you love reading, but what kind of books do you most enjoy and why? Fantasy. When you're in school you learn to live, you learn about real life - so it's time for entertainment and learn about worlds that aren't real and fantasize about having powers, or creatures around you. Fantasy land is funnnn <3. Which book do you most often recommend to others and why? Manhattan Hunt Club by John Saul - When I was younger I kept trying to read, and trying to read. Picked up "famous" and "popular" books all the time and attempted to read but never got into them. This book kept me thoroughly entertained from the beginning and was the first book I had ever read start to finish. Though now I don't remember the end - I do remember the majority of the story and still like it. *scratches head* how did it end? What other interests do you have and what drew you to them? I like to play guitar - it's my favourite portion in any song. ( I rarely listen to anything without guitars in it) Lyrics and vocals make a song better - but it all starts with some sort of "tune" =). Graphics - I love making graphics. It passes time quickly and it's neat to make something from 'nothing' thus why I also like to cross-stich, and crochet (I used to like knitting but that took ages and crocheting is faster :x) Tell us three unusual and interesting things about yourself… I'm more of a dog person, but I have a cat. This is the only cat I don't "hate" for some reason or another. I spend so much time in the "fantasy" world (games, books etc.) that when I come back to "earth" I forget what's goin' on and that I can't fly on a broom and cast spells or turn into a wolf and hunt vampires LOL. I wish we could shut the hydro off for one year and live without 'computers' or 'technology'. Then instead of people blaring the tv, I could spend countless hours reading.
