Book Blogger Hop (4) Follow Friday (3)

Book Blogger Hop


Book Blogger Hop hosted by Jen at Crazy for Books.

This weeks question:


Why do you read the genre that you do? What draws you to it?


When I was in the 7th grade I read Prince of Magic by Anne Stuart. I found it at my grandmother's house one day and started to read it. My grandma was a big reader, and she had piles and piles of books. She wasn't much of a romance reader-it was often her last resort. But after reading Prince of Magic, and seeing how much Gabriel loved Liz, spoke to my pre-teen mind, and I was hooked. So I blame my gramma. Alex over at A Girl, Books and Other Things says it really well, it's about the happy endings, and the hope they inspire. As for Young Adult. I love how they are mostly good clean fun. I love how much fun they are. They bring me back to my junior high/high school days, where life was simple. I really do love them, and they usually have fabulous covers.

This weeks Question...

What makes up your non-human family??

I don't have a non-human family. I had a cat growing up K-Ci and I loved him. He was the best. One day when I have a house I really want to get a female dog and name her Lucy. I like that
idea a lot.

Happy Reading Everyone!

    Great answer about happy endings. I think that's a wonderfully optimistic way to look at literature!


    Happy Hop!

    I love the fact that you had a cat named K-Ci. We had a cat named KC, which stood for Karen Cat (I had a cousin named Karen. I was 3)

    I had a dog named Kasey (the vet always spelled it KC though) She was a sweetie she passed away from cancer awhile back though.

    Have a good weekend!

    I do love the happy endings! :) Though it seems like so many books have horrible cliffhangers these days! I like YA too! Nice looking blog - I love the book tree!
