I always wonder what other people think about the books they read, which characters stay stuck in their minds and which worlds they'd prefer to live in instead of this one, and cause I'm always super curious about the inner workings of other people's minds.
So I've created this book survey that revolves around books and reading. All you have to do is copy the questions and then answer them and send them off to your partners. This is a snail-mail swap and International = D
It would be great if you flesh out your answers when appropriate so that your partner can get a sense of the character/idea of the answer. Really think about the answers, they don't all have to be the same book/series etc feel free to mix it up in your answers and have fun!
