Feature & Follow Friday (#15)

 

Feature & Follow Friday is a blog hop sponsored by Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read. Answer a question and hop around to meet other bloggers:)

Question: Summer reading. What was your favorite book that you were required to read for school?

It's hard to pick just one. All of these were memorable in some way. To Kill a Mockingbird would have to be my favorite because I remember the most things from it. Apparently we had a crappy reading selection after freshman year.




Summer before 9th grade, we got to pick off of a list. When I finished this book, not only had I fallen in love with writing, but I proved to myself that long books didn't have to be intimidating. I couldn't find the cover that was on the library book I read from.

 9th grade. Memorable characters. 

Important exploration of racism. Had a

satisfied grin on my face by the end.

Also 9th grade. The idea of burning books was so foreign a concept that I was immediately hooked.
