Going on from the gorgeous blake's thread. If you had to go away and could only take with you one book that you had previously read which would it be.

I'm not sure I could ever pick my favourite. I can't ever get rid of books even if it means I have to start stacking them on the floor. So trying to pick just one would probably leave me heartbroken

I'm the same! Other Boleyn Girl, Memoirs of a Geisha or maybe Angela's Ashes. Or if I can take all of CJ Sansom's books in one big book I'll play properly

To kill a mockingbird.

Always.

I love reading and there is never a point when I dont have a book on the go.

But at least once a year I will re read to kill a mockingbird. I never tire of it.
