Basically Books! discussion

This is the second time that we have organized this activity for the group: a series of monthly challenges featuring questions of different topics and areas. One different topic for each month, and one different question for each day.

The aim of this activity is that our members are able to get to know each other in a deeper level, and to provide more topic to chat with each other! Yay!

The topic for April is... BOOKS! Tell us your favourite titles, share a favourite quote - let's get to know each other through our reading habits... Let’s talk about them and see who agrees or disagrees with you!

Rules:
The challenge starts on April 1st.
There’s a question for each day of the month. Answer ONE QUESTION PER DAY. Please, don’t answer all the questions at once!
Try to answer in order, so we don't get confused ;)
--THE QUESTIONS ARE AT THE END OF THIS POST ;)--

Remember to be polite with everyone’s opinions.

Rea, Jeshu and Tara <3
