A Meme


I did this meme last year and thought it was good fun, and then saw it again over at Stuck in a Book so I have done another with this years books.
You have to answer the questions using the titles of the books that you have read throughout the year. Try not to repeat your answers. It can be a bit tricky and some answers need a little bit of imagination, but here goes...
Describe yourself The Blue Fox (Sjon)
How do you feel? The Deeper Secret (AnneMarie Postma). Also used this one last year but I finished it in January.
Describe where you currently live The Magic Apple Tree (Susan Hill)
If you could go anywhere, where would you go? A Month in the Country (J L Carr)
Your favourite form of transportation Ship Fever (Andrea Barrett)
Your best friend is Emma (Jane Austen). My best friend is not called Emma but it is the only title that fitted!
You and your friends are The Girls (Lori Lansens)
What's the weather like? To Kill a Mockingbird (Harper Lee)
You fear The Suspicions of Mr Whicher (Kate Summerscale)
What is the best advice you have to give? Atonement (Ian McEwan)
Thought for the day The Mystery of Grace (Charles de Lint)
How would you like to die? The Distance Between Us (Maggie O'Farrell)
My Soul's present condition An Awfully Big Adventure (Beryl Bainbridge)
How would you answer?
