    Jacqueline Wilson

    I read Jacqueline Wilson books when I was younger and never thought there was anything wrong with them. Lots of good stories which kids enjoy. But if you are worried about the content give one or two a read yourself, sure you will enjoy it!

    how long

    I am not really the fastest reader. But it deprends on the book its self. If I am intersted I can read a book in a day but will spend most of the day reading. Other times I will take me over a month to read an average sized book just because I don't read often.

    Author fatigue

    I guess I prefer to take a rest after I have read something by one author. When I was younger I never had this problem, mainly because the books I read were quick and easy. I can read a series in order but some I cannot. I guess it just depends on the author and the genre of books I am reading.

    How possessive are you about your books?

    I don't really have anyone to lend my books out too. When I was in my first few years of high school I would lend them out to some friends and it was always fine! One still has a book and keeps saying to me that they have it but I just let them keep it because I didn't like the book! But most of...

    What do you use as a bookmark?

    I am currently using a bookmark I made after Christmas. I have a lovely metal bookmark but because it is one of the paperclip ones that stick out the top the page often gets ripped if I am traveling with the book...or it falls off! Before Christmas when I was traveling by train about once a...

    Enid Blyton

    I loved The Famous Five when I was younger, have the complete collection. But also at that age there was the TV series which kept me occupied. I would say the books are readily available. And I would like my kids to read them if I were to have any, but I would leave it up to them to decide...

    Philip Pullman: His Dark Materials

    I read the first one when it was popular book and much talked about. It never left an impression. Now at the age of 17 I have decided to read the 2nd book, it is better, but also I think being older I am seeing different parts from the story. Must say the 2nd is keeping me reading it while the...

    Wandering books. Does this happen to you?

    My books do not wander often. Mainly because they are left in my room or bag so no one has acess to them. If I leave a book downstairs it will be moved...thus I have learned not to leave any books down there!!!
