Welcome
A Bookaholic, Pro-life, Conservative, Catholic, with Asperger's, who reads a lot. These are the ramblings of the books I read or read aloud to my energetic Autistic 11yo. I love reading almost any book from classics to mysteries to fantasy to ARCs. I sometimes go through stages of "genre love", get addicted to manga and graphic novels or get caught up in reading ARCs, but you'll find I read a wide variety of books, both fiction and non-fiction. I tend to post a lot of reviews of juvenile/teen books but I still do a lot of adult reviews as well. I read well over 200 books a year, but haven't made it to 300 yet!

I can't think of an answer for the last question, either. I was thinking The Stone Diaries, too, but it has been so long since I read it I can't remember how it is written...
Fun answers, though!
We only have #10 in common though I suspect if I ever get around to reading Atwood's prose, some of my answers would change. Mystery kind of stumped me and the only graphic novel that I trully enjoyed wasn't by a Canadian but I did get #25!
