8. A book you love and one you don’t
Oh boy. I love a lot of books. I guess I’ll choose one of my all-time favorites, The Book Thief. I read it in less than two days. I was in the final chapters when my husband and kids came home from somewhere. “Leave me alone!” I squawked, then took off and hid myself in my bedroom while I finished. I cried over this book. I can’t think of another book that has literally brought me to tears.
I hate to pick a book I don’t love because an author worked hard over it, and just because it’s not to my taste doesn’t mean it lacks worth. Here’s a review I wrote of a book I did not enjoy. I won’t name the book or the author.
