Hmm...is there a "drama" genre? I'd say I lean towards Romance more often than not, but I'm not overly particular as long as its good.
2. What books won’t you touch?
Horror, Murder Mysteries, True crimes, anything that involves extreme violence or crimes against children.
3. Did you read series books as a child/YA? If so, what was your favorite?
I loved ALL Judy Blume books. I also liked Anne of Green Gables Books, and the Mandie Mystery books. But my "favorite" book was The Secret Garden.

Favorite genre: can't claim just one.
ReplyDeleteWon't touch: well, I'm disinclined to like bodice-rippers. though I have read a few tongue-in-cheek reomances that I found hilarious and delightful--but that was in college, and I don't remember who wrote them. Catherine Coulter? does that sound right?
Series I read as a kid: Nancy Drew, American Girls, a few nonfiction series from the library; as a teen, I was an huge fan of the trilogies of LJ Smith.
Favorite blog: I think I'd have to say The Literate Housewife. We have similar tastes in books, and I like how she thinks/writes about them.
Character I'd love to meet: Hermione Granger. I think.
