See? I told you I was trying to get back into posting! And here I am three days in with three whole posts. Amazing! ;D
Alright, alright. Enough with the sarcasm, yes? On to the books!
{many thanks to Jenni for the idea}
Day 22: Favorite book you own
Oh groan. Another hard one! But if I have to choose, I'd say it was a toss up between My Hands Came Away Red by Lisa McKay (I own two copies) and Persuasion by Jane Austen (I own four copies). Not to mention The Blue Castle by LM Montgomery! (Sadly I only own one copy of this one, but plan to get at least one more for it's beautiful cover! :)
I can't choose a favorite between those three, I pick them all up very, very often to reread yet again. Sometimes I read the entire story all in one sitting, sometimes I skim only my favorite parts, sometimes I just read the final few chapters (where all the good stuff happens ;). But of all the books I own, of which there are many, I'd say it's those three books that I pick up the most often.
And you? Do you have a favorite that you own?
I have so many favorites but it's kind of sad that I rarely reread...but even sections. I should do this more often.
ReplyDeleteI understand the difficulty of this question. I chose books that my mom had given me when I was a child and had written in them because it reminded me of her. Even though they're not my favorite books, they mean a lot to me. :)
ReplyDeleteA single favorite? Ack, that would be like choosing one of my children as a favorite!
ReplyDeleteHowever, if I HAD to... I would cop out and say my copy of Five Magic Spindles because it's my first major publication :-D
