I'm not a convert but I have been looking into converting seriously for a year (started looking into the religion 2 years ago). I can share some of my questions with you though...

1. As a woman, I am a major feminist (some people find it annoying) so I ask a lot of questions that have to do with women such as:
a) How is a woman supposed to behave in x,y,z situation? How about men?
b) What are the consequences to a woman in x,y,z situation? How about men?
c) What are womens' rights in x,y,z situation? How about men?
As someone who was raised Catholic, I had questions about Jesus (of course), Mary and the "trinity". But I also liked to hear the stories of other messengers God sent, I liked to hear the stories even more as time went on because I found out the large discrepancies between versions (Islamic vs Catholic).
This is all Ican think of right now...

2 and 3. How can you start? I don't think there is a set way one can start, it depends on your dynamic. The best advice I can give you is not to be pushy. You can bring up the subject but don't be pushy! I've talked to many people and the best experiences were when I was able to ask questions and obtained honest answers. The worst times is when people started lecturing/criticizinf and belittiling me on my behaviour, my beliefs and theories. You'll attract more flies with honey than with vinegar. Just take it easy. If it's time for her to convert, then it's time for her to convert, if it's not it's not. If you come off as being too pushy, you might actually scare her away (some of the most agressively devoted people I know scared me away for a time - I have not talked to them since).

4. How about what makes me think this may be it: I think really is a religion of feminism. Women aren't made to feel inferior to men. Wow! Also, I never understood the trinity and took the whole "Son of God" as a more figurative/hippy thing as in "we're all children/creations of God"). And I never understood the concept of the Holy Spirit/Ghost, I still don't get it. I never liked the worshipping of images either. Stories of messengers always had points that didn't make sense to me (Why would Noah get rip roaring drunk? Why would he curse his son for finding him? Why does he behave like this?, etc).Basically, I found a lot of holes here and there. Not to mention that I have a HUGE beef with the Catholic Church. Don't even get me started on that topic!

Sorry, I ranted on. Hope this helps in some way...

For me, it was simply a matter of reading the passages in the Qur'an that spoke of Jesus and Mary (pbut). The index and commentary in the Yusuf Ali translation was helpful to me.
