Alright folks: sound off!

1) Definitely a grand library
2) Using books marks. Dog eared pages bother me so much.
3) I don’t use either, but I’ll go with book Twitter.
4) Usually romance, but at the moment mystery/thriller. I’m getting bored with romance.
5) Antique book shops
6) French Rivera.
7) E-reader. I don’t have the patience for audiobooks.
8) Book reviews.
9) Typewriter.
10) Short story.
11) Both sound great, but reading by a window. I get too distracted outside.
12) Award winners, but niche picks are great, too!
13) Stand-alones (for the same reason)
14) Contemporaries, although I do love some classics.

Poetry, definitely. The language use is beautiful.

Reading by the window as it rains with the fire crackling OR summer reading in the garden to the sound of birds?
By the window as it rains, but without the fire? I'm in the land of perpetual heat. No need to add to that.
