Literary Junkies Book Chat (Lit Lovers Link Party)

February 24, 2016 by Meet Brenda 2 Comments

I’m part of the online book club Literary Junkies, which meets virtually on Facebook. Each month, we have question challenges that help us get to know each other better! Today, this book chat is all about current reads and our thoughts on Harper Lee.
Love books? Love talking about books? Don't miss this edition of the Daily Mayo Book Chat and thoughts on Harper Lee.

Literary Junkies Book Chat

Join in the fun and answer these book chat questions on your own blog or in the comments!

1. What are you reading right now? Tell us about it.
Right now, I’m taking a break from fiction. The most recent book I’ve been reading is a collection of short stories called Dangerous Women, which has tales of strong women from some of the current popular writers in several genres. There is something for everyone in this collection.
2. Have you ever read a book that made you want to immediately travel to that destination?
I love the setting for Howl’s Moving Castle. I would love to visit that universe.
3. What is your ideal reading spot?
I used to love reading in trees. Now, I  would probably find it highly uncomfortable. I’d love to read on a beach (if the sunlight wasn’t too strong) or in a cozy home library. I hope one day to have a home with a library with a big window seat.
4. If you wrote a memoir, what would the title be?
I can’t imagine I would ever write a memoir. I don’t really like reading them either. I prefer biographies. Memoirs seem a little self-centered, I guess?
5. One of our great literary giants has recently passed, author of To Kill a Mockingbird, Harper Lee. Did you read the book? Thoughts/opinions. What about Go Set a Watchman? 
I’ve read both To Kill a Mockingbird and Go Set a Watchman. I read To Kill a Mockingbird before I was old enough to understand it, so I didn’t really care for it. But although many people hated Go Set a Watchman, I liked it. I thought it gave an interesting prospective to why Atticus made the decisions that he did in his career. I know it isn’t politically correct now, but society is changing for the better, so it makes sense to me that a person from that generation would make choices in the way he did.

Link your favorite book and quote posts (new or old) for some extra traffic! We’re here every Thursday.

Remember, you can link up as many book or quote-related posts as you want! 

As always, I will feature my favorite link-up in next week’s Lit Lover’s edition. This year, I’m also sharing my favorite posts on the Daily Mayo Facebook page and Twitter as a “thank you” for linking up each week.

When you share your post with me, you agree to for me to use one image from your post in next week’s LL. I will also pin all link-ups to the new Lit Lover’s Pinterest board and send you weekly link-up reminders so you can join in every week.

    I don’t like reading memoirs either. But I’m not a big fan of non-fiction in general. So hard for me to read. I read a book to get lost. So mostly, I stick to fictional stories. Hope to see you tomorrow for another Literary Junkies link party!
