Favorite place to read a book:

Home

Book character I’d like to be stuck in an elevator with:

I prefer to read nonfiction novels

The moment I knew I wanted to become an author:

I have never really wanted to become an author and the reason for which I wrote this book was to try and spread awareness about autism to young children who might not know what it is. I thought that by doing this I could make these children understand that there are some people within our society who may be impaired in many different ways but who should still be treated with respect and care.

Hardback, paperback, ebook or audiobook:

I haven't really tried reading using an audiobook and so I can’t really say if I like it or not. This being said it does sound like something I should try because I am a relatively slow reader. As for paperback or hardback books I just find them a bit annoying to carry around when compared to other alternatives such as ebooks. I honestly prefer ebooks because they don't have to be carried.

The last book I read:

The last book I read was outliers by Malcolm Gladwell. I thought it was a really interesting book as it highlighted how success is largely attributed to luck and not only a product of intelligence or ability.
