All-Time Favourites

Have you got a favourite book? One that you've read over and over and still love it? Tell us about it here. Leave a comment telling everyone which book is your all-time fave, who the author is and why you love it.

My favourite is "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee. I love the characters, especially Scout. The first time I read this book, I was quite young. I started reading it to my older cousin who enjoyed hearing a book being read to him as opposed to reading it himself. He was in high school and had to read the book for his English class. A few years later, I had to do the same for my own English class and ever since it has been my favourite.

Don't be shy...leave a comment :)

Stephenie Meyer Survey

I thought we would start things off with a quick survey. Add your results to the poll on the side of the page.

I started reading the Twilight series this summer and I was instantly hooked! I am almost finished the fourth and final book, Breaking Dawn. I'm not usually a fan of fantasy novels, but this author has renewed my interest in them. I truly cannot wait until the movie is released in November. Have you seen the preview? Check out the link here.

What do you think of the Twilight series? Have you read all of them? Which one is your favourite and why? Leave a comment and share your thoughts!

Happy Reading!!
