If you l o v e reading like I do (or maybe "hopelessly addicted"), you know that gleeful triumph of discovering a really good book. For fun, here's a few of my favorite titles, both fiction and nonfiction. Some of which, like "The Lord of the Rings", Narnia, and "The Sword in the Stone", I'm sure you've probably read. If not, I hope you check them out!
As I said, I'm hopelessly addicted, so this reading list will keep growing.
Let's discuss them: Don't be shy to comment below, let me know what your favorites are! Also if you've read/ are currently reading any these works, voice your feedback. What do you like about this author/book/plot, ask questions, recommend a story idea, or anything else you would like to share.
You can also join a website called Goodreads to connect with myself and other literary nerds (haha), discover a plethora of awesome titles, and be introduced to emerging authors.
