Since I'm doing a reading challenge this year I've been researching books, looking back at books I've read, going through my bookshelf, and reading through my old "reading lists." I love books. I've always had a passion for books. I love reading them. I love writing them. I love the smell of old books and new books. If we stop at or near a bookstore I have to go in and look at them. I am a book nerd!
My Top Twelve Favorite Books:
~ The Bible
~ The Hobbit - J.R.R. Tolkien
~ The Lord of The Rings Trilogy - J.R.R. Tolkien
~ The Giver - Lois Lowry
~ The Canadian West Series - Janette Oke
~ Bud, not Buddy - Christopher Paul Curtis
~ A Thousand Gifts - Ann Voskamp
~ Journeys of Faithfulness - Sarah Clarkson
~ Carry on Mr. Bowditch - Jean Lee Latham
~ Johnny Treeman - Esther Forbes
~ Tuckets Travels - Gary Paulsen
~ The Hatchet - Gary Paulsen
I might add a link later with a review (I gotta write them first ;)) to some of them.
What are your favorite books? Leave a comment! I would love to hear from you!
I think we share a lot of the same favorites! Like mother, Like daughter. :)
ReplyDeleteYes, very true. Maybe because a lot of them were family read alouds ;)
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing like the smell of old books! Perhaps a cup of tea also. :D
ReplyDeleteI know! I seriously love the smell! I like the smell of tea but not really the taste. I wish I did! ;)
DeleteOh my goodness, I love smelling books too and I'm glad I'm not the only one! High five to The Giver and the Canadian West series, and I've read most of the others on your list in high school when I used Sonlight curriculum. Great choices!
ReplyDeleteThanks! These really are some very good books! :)
