Reader questions
The ones that come in most often.
Do you review new books?
Sometimes, but most essays are about reading itself rather than one book.
Can I send you my book?
You can, but I cannot promise to read or write about it.
Paper or e-reader?
Both. Whatever gets you reading on a given day is the right one.
Where do you buy books?
Second-hand shops, the library and a local bookshop. In that order.
