Mrs Goddard Librarian's Favourites...

What is your favourite book you have read this year?

Catfish Rolling, a beautifully written tale set in Japan, with intrigue, romance and lots of clever turns of phrase. The descriptions remind me of my travels in Japan.

What was your favourite book while you were in secondary school?

I am showing my age here...Harry Potter was released when I was in school, and I loved it!

What is your favourite part of your role in the WHS library? I love getting to know the students...and having access to all the books I could want!

If you could have a dinner party with fictional characters, who would be top of the guest list?

I would have the Twilight characters to my dinner party, because they all infuriate me. I'd give them some better suggestions for how they could handle their lives.

Do you have a favourite non-fiction book?

Mistresses of Cliveden. It's all about Cliveden House and its history; a fascinating read. What book is next on your reading list?

I want to read A Thousand Splendid Suns next.

Any particular library highlights of this year and are there any exciting plans in store for the library in the future?

Having the younger years in for reading lessons is a definite highlight. It's great helping them find new books they like. I loved World Book Day too - give me a chance to dress up and I will take it!
