selenak13. Makes me laugh.
Her Majesty's Will by David Blixt, which I have reviewed here. As I said, hands down one of the most enjoyable books I've ever read, in which young Shakespeare inadvertendly gets entangled in a (historical) spy plot, flirts with Kit Marlowe (textually, no subtext about it) and the author includes even a few neat put-downs to Oxfordians while he's at it. It's a glorious and very funny romp of an Elizabethan adventure.
1. Favorite book from childhood

7. Forgot I owned it.
8. Have more than one copy.

11. Second hand bookshop gem.
12. I pretend to have read it.
14. An old favorite.
15. Favorite fictional father.
16. Can't believe more people haven't read.
17. Future classic.
18. Bought on a recommendation.
19. Still can't stop talking about it.
20. Favorite cover.

22. Out of print.
23. Made to read at school.
24. Hooked me into reading.
25. Never finished it.
26. Should have sold more copies.
27. Want to be one of the characters.
28. Bought at my fave independent bookshop.
29. The one I have reread most often.
30. Would save if my house burned down.
