Prompts:

1 On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being a normal person and 10 being the late Harold Bloom, how much are books and reading a part of your life?

2 Where does your personal library stand right now in relation to the rest of your life? Do you have more books now than you ever had? Fewer? How has your library changed?

3 Take a mental step back and ask yourself: what is the most likely first bookish impression a newcomer would have in your home?

4 How often (if ever, gulp) do you clean or re-organize your books?

5 On average, how many books do you acquire in a given week?

6 What song is your current ear-worm?

7 What percentage of your self-control do you retain in a well-stocked bookshop?

8 Do you ever feel the need to take a break from books? If so, what form does it take?

9 When you meet a new person, how long does it take you to bring up books?

10 Have you given any thought/made any provisions for your personal library after you croak?

11 Are you known among your friends & loved ones for your weird and probably unhealthy relationship with books?
