Go Dog Go
This is the first book I ever remember reading. At age 4 or so, I remember pretending to read this because i had memorized every word. -
Dr. Seuss books
These were some of my favorite stories, starting at an early age. -
Garfield comics
Relatively early in life, I learned to laugh at Garfield and his wacky adventures. -
Goosebumps series
These books always interested me because they presented the unknown in a less than nice way. -
Greek Mythology
Greek mythology always appealed to me because it was so surreal, and greater than life. -
Harry Potter
I watched the first two movies and loved them, so naturally when I found out about the books, I had to read them. -
Artemis Fowl
I liked the cover art, when I saw it. Now I have read all of them. -
Percy Jackson
This series was amazing, because it brought my favorite topic, Greek mythology, into the modern age. -
Diary of a Wimpy Kid
I read these books towards the end of elementary school, because I was getting less into reading, and they were short, funny, and had pictures -
Dr. Seuss Biography
Since I liked his books so much, it made sense to read his biography, and present on it when the assignment came up. -
Crash
I liked this book, because I could relate so well with the secondary character, because in elementary school I was the weak, nerdy kid. -
Cirque Du Freak
This series really got to me, because it is one of the only series that I have ever read where the main character dies. Before this series I never would have thought that books could end in that way. -
The Outsiders
I enjoyed this book, again, because it related to what my dad does for a living, dealing with gangs and such. I felt that I could get to know him even better if I read it. -
The Chronicles of Vlad Todd
For whatever reason, I couldn't stop reading these books. I even re-read them to catch up for the spin off series. -
Demonata series
This series was written by the same author as the Cirque du Freak series, so I decided to check it out. I ended up reading all 11 books in a month. -
Flowers for Algernon
This book interested me greatly, due to the fact that it was about mental illness, and my dad is a psychologist. So I just had to learn more. -
Star Wars comics
By this point I barely read, so comics became my go to form of reading. -
To Kill a Mockingbird
This interested me because it dealt with the idea of racism, which I was not accustomed to. -
Marvel comics
Since I still enjoy comic books, the Marvel universe was perfect for me, since they had movies coming out, and the universe was so expansive, with so many enjoyable characters -
The Great Gatsby
This is one of the few mandatory books of high school that I, not only read, but liked as well.
