Today I have the pleasure of chatting with a fabulous blogger and great friend Debbie of Debbie’s World of Books. I met Debbie on Twitter (follow her @DebWorldOfBooks) and I’m so happy to have made a good friend to talk books, blogging and television with! Without further ado let me share more about Debbie with the rest of you:

Q: What is your current read?
DWB: Never Slow Dance With a Zombie

Q: What was your favorite book growing up?
DWB: The Black Stallion

Q: Who are your favorite authors?
DWB: Julie Garwood, Julia Quinn, Richelle Mead, Scott Westerfeld, Mercedes Lackey and Christine Feehan

Q: What is the worst book you’ve ever read?
DWB: I have such a horrible memory and I think I’ve blocked out some of them but I remember East Garrison by GM Weger being horrible.  I never heard of it or the author before and I wish I had not picked it up.  It was such a depressing book!

Q: What is the best book you’ve ever read?
DWB: Gosh, this is a hard one! You know that is a cruel question to ask a book blogger right? :)   It is a tight race between Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen, Arrows of the Queen by Mercedes Lackey or The Eight by Katherine Neville.  Any of the three would be safe picks as I’ve had to buy second copies of each because I re-read them so often the originals fell apart.

Q: What book have you bought simply for the cover?
DWB: I don’t usually buy just because of the cover but one book that I picked up because of the cover and then the blurb intrigued me was City of Bones by Cassandra Clare.

Q: Is there anything you’d like to tell that you haven’t been asked?
DWB: Ummm…pressure, not feeling a bolt of creativity or originality here.  Ok, as I’m sure many people already know not only am I a book lover but am also a geek.  I love Star Trek: TNG and Voyager, Stargate and Sanctuary.  Hey don’t knock it til you’ve watched it!

Q: What is your favorite word?
DWB: Yucka.  Yes, not a real word but it’s the only thing I’ve found that will keep my two year old from touching things she shouldn’t so it is now my favorite word.

Q: What is your least favorite word?
DWB: No word in particular but am not fond of words with more than 3 syllables cause then you just start sounding like you are pretending to be smart. LOL.

Q: What turns you on?
DWB: A sense of humor

Q: What turns you off?
DWB: Snobs

Q: What sound or noise do you love?
DWB: Raindrops (not falling on my head) but on our roof.  It’s such a relaxing sound and I love curling up on the sofa and reading while listening to it.

Q: What sound or noise do you hate?
DWB: Nails on a chalkboard.

Q: What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?
DWB: I really would love to try being a YA librarian.  I have an MLIS but have only worked in a corporate library.

Q: What profession would you not like to attempt?
DWB: Doctor. I am one of the clumsiest people I know and would feel sorry for my patients.

Q: If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
DWB: Eat all the chocolate you want and you never gain a pound!  Ok, not the most profound thing but it was what first popped into my head.

Q: What is your favorite curse word?
DWB: My vocabulary has tamed since my daughter was born so “awww, crap” is probably the worst I get nowadays and hopefully not often!

Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions Debbie I enjoy helping readers get to know you better!  Which is my round about way of asking you all to go check out Debbie’s World of Books her blog totally kicks butt!
