This week's thefridayfive 

1. Do you enjoy reading?
Yes, I generally have about 4 books on the go at once.

2. What is the first book you remember reading?
It was a long time ago...

3. Who is your favourite author?
Impossible to decide - I have a selection of authors I like to read, but it depends what I'm looking for.  Maybe Vaseem Khan.

4. What is your favourite book?
If it was impossible to decide on my favourite author, how am I supposed to extend the search to one book.  Latest favourite The Retired Assassin's Guide to Orchid Hunting by Naomi Kuttner

5. What is the last book you read and the first you'll read next?
The last book I finished was Cranky Ladies of History by Tansy Rayner Roberts.  The next book I'll be starting is The Spring House by Cynthia Asquith, which is published next week as part of the British Library Women Writers collection.
