One day I went to the bookstore looking for a happy, easy read after reading the dark survival tale of Oblivion Road by Alex McAulay. I searched the bookshelves for a realistic fiction romance. My eyes caught onto a bright beautiful cover, look at it, of a girl and a boy. My eyes then wandered to read the synopsis. Ah, a girl in love, dealing with confrontations and heartache. A perfect relaxing read. When I left the bookstore that day, I had no idea I pick up a vampire love story. I knew by reading the first page though.
What is your favorite book memory?
Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine. My paperback had to replaced three times because of how much I love the book. It was one of the first books that got me addicted to reading. It was in middle school and I just wanted to read a fairy tale. I bought if from the Scholastic newsletter that the school hands out and I was hooked! How could I not love this spunky take on the classic Cinderella fairy tale? Ever since then, I've been a total addict to retellings of fairy tales :)
ReplyDeleteHi Patricia. :) I love fairy tales too and Ella Enchanted is a great book!. I once picked out the book Hidden Talent by from my middle school's Scholastic newsletter, and read that book many times since then.
