British novelist Tasmina Perry is the author of Private Lives (Headline, $34.99).
The book I love most is ... I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith. Cassandra Mortmain is one of the quirkiest and most charming narrators in literature and the whole book has a delicious English eccentricity about it that I love.
The book I'm reading right now is ... Absolute Power by David Baldacci.
The book I'd like to read next is ... The Language Of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh, a debut novel about a young woman whose passion for flowers helps change the lives of others.
My favourite bookshop is ... Barts Bookstore in Ojai, California. It's an outdoor bookshop built around a huge tree in the middle of Ojai with lots of quiet nooks stuffed with used books and rare first editions.
