Books That Have Single-Handedly Changed My Life
>> Monday, July 6, 2009
I'm an avid bookworm and have been so very lucky to read such phenomenal books within my major. Some have been trying but a lot of them have been immensely rewarding and changed me.
Some have just been so fun, while others have been so heartfelt and still others have been so well written.
Opening up a book for me is like sitting down for a feast. My specific genre's of interest are Children's Lit, Sci Fi, Fantasy, Periodic novels, and Alternate history/future, . Of my top favorites are:
Robin Hobb's The Farseer Trilogy
Robin Hobb's Liveship Traders Trilogy
Robin Hobb's The Fool Trilogy
Markus Zusak's The Book Thief
Lauren Halse Anderson's Speak
Elizabeth Kostova's The Historian
John Case's The Genesis Code
Shel Silverstein's The Giving Tree
Dr. Seuss's The Lorax
Mary Ellen Edmunds' You Can Never Get Enough of What You Don't Need: The Quest for Contentment
Jane Austen's Persuasion
Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey
Douglas Adam's The Hitchiker's Guide To The Galaxy Series
Soon to follow will be a review on each of these.
