Nikita’s questions

1. Which is the best book that you’ve read so far?
   Many books could fit in this category. If you had a gun to my head and forced me to choose, I’d say “I hope you don’t have plans for the day, it’s gonna take a while”
2. If you could meet any author, who would it be and why?
   Still not into the author thing. But I would not say no to meeting J.K Rowling to thank her for giving me a magical childhood, even if it’s been done a thousand times.
3. If you could go anywhere on the Earth, where would you go? Whom would take along with you? (you can take only one person)
   I’d like to take my mother to her dream place; Australia
4. You get to have dinner with your favorite fictional family. Who all are at the table?
   The Plum family, from Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum series. There is always something going on when they are having dinner and I’d love to have a chat with Grandma Mazur. Also, I really want to try all of those typical American dishes.
   
5. What is the one thing you can’t live without?
   Does that sound weird if my answer is rum? :p
   
6.  What is something people should be surprised to know about you?
   I honestly have no idea. I guess it would depend on the person. Moreover, I’m full of surprises!
   
7. Do you prefer writing in the morning or night?
   I’m more effective in the morning. Nights are for reading/watching/faking sleep
   
8. What’s your favorite TV show?
   No hesitation: The Newsroom. I love everything about it: the writing, the characters, the stories. I went through all emotions while watching Sorkin’s awesome masterpiece. I will forever keep That’s How I Got To Memphis in my iPod. 
9. What one novel would you like to see made into a movie that hasn’t been yet?
   None. I like the movies I make in my head, I don’t need to see novels on the big screen because I’m disappointed 9 times out of 10.
10. Describe yourslef in three words.
    Three words are not enough, honey :p Loyal, crazy, flexible
    
11. Your favorite singer or band?
    All-time favorite? James Blunt. Yep. Not ashamed. Or, on a French note, Kyo.

My Questions

1. What is your comfort food?
2. Star Trek or Star Wars?
3. Your house is burning and you can only save one thing, what do you take?
4. What is your favorite English word?
5. If you were a season, which one would you be?
