    Little Fur Family
    I used to sleep with this book every night because the cover was furry like a stuffed animal.
  • As a child...

    As a child I was told that I was going to have to learn to read "like everyone else". I feel like I had the conception that everyone had to learn/know how to read.

  • Favorite childhood book- Charlotte's Web

    Favorite childhood book- Charlotte's Web
    As a child I gravitated towards towards books with pretty cover pages. Charlotte's Web caught my eye, and ever since has remained a favorite book of mine. My 5-year old self looked up to Fern and was so jealous of her pet pig.... Still sorta am.

  • Favorite preteen book- Holes

    Favorite preteen book- Holes
    Still probably one of the best books I've ever read, hands down. I honestly do not even know how many times I read it. I first read it when I was close to 9 years old. I love the double plot and the style of writing. Now I really want to re-read this over break!

  • Go Ask Alice

    Go Ask Alice
    This is not your typical book. This is the diary found of a young girl after commiting suicide. Books never really make me cry but this one got to me... It was just so personal and vivid, I almost felt like I was there right next to Alice. Did not put down that book until I read it all in a day.
  • Most difficult read- Shakespeare

    Most difficult read- Shakespeare
    I am for sure a Shakespeare lover, but that does not mean it is an easy read. I took Shakespeare as my english class last semester and read many of his amazing plays. I struggled at points to fully understand the language, which made it a tough read.

    I would like to read more in general, honestly. Although in specific I would like to read more fiction.
