Once upon a time, I used to think that reading wasn’t for me (what was I thinking,right?).
I never once picked up a book in high school, and maybe it was because reading felt like an obligation rather than something I should enjoy. A few years after I graduated (2006), a girl I worked with introduced to the wonderful books by Stephenie Meyer (can you guess the series?). I finished all four books in less than a week. My parents thought I was depressed because I locked myself in my room, was skipping meals, and barely talked to anyone – when in fact, those were the best few days I’ve had in a long time.
I couldn’t thank the girl enough who recommended the series. I fell in love with being able to enter a whole other world besides my own. To be able to see the world through someone else’s eyes and experience something otherworldly, it was truly something I just couldn’t let go.
Ever since then, I just can’t seem to put a book down. If I’m not reading a book, then I’m most likely sleeping or eating. I enjoy reading Young Adult, New Adult, Romance, Paranormal Romance, Dystopian… you name it! I’m a sucker for a great story, and if it involves love, then all the better!
Some of my favorites are:
The Infernal DevicesA Court of Thorns and Roses
Thorne of Glass
The Mortal Instruments
ANYTHING Colleen Hoover
So, if you’re wondering why I started blogging, well, the answer is simple. Books changed my life and it was all because someone recommended a few books to me that I fell in love with. I hope that my time here will help encourage those who not only love to read, but also those who don’t. :)
