Feature and Follow Friday...Featuring ME!!!



This meme is hosted by Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read


I am srsly so excited...do  you want to know why??? Well I'm going to tell you I'm being featured today!!!! YAY! Thanks so much to Parajunkee for featuring my blog today!


Also being featured today is: 


Make sure you check out her blog as well... so let's get to it.  This weeks question is:


Q: What is one thing you wish you could tell your favorite author?

It's been pointed out to me that this question isn't really easy to answer, I can see how it could be hard to pick a favorite author or what you would be able to say to that author, but my pick was pretty easy for me.

My favorite author is the author that got me to read. Her book is the reason I'm still reading today! The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton is the first chapter book I ever picked up read and loved every single word.  I couldn't get enough of the story or the characters.  Yes I had to read it for school, but before that I *ducks head in shame* used the easy way around reading books for school.

So what I would love to tell S.E. Hinton is Thank you, for showing me how much fun reading is.  How reading a book can take you so many different places! I would love to tell her the story of how her book got me to keep reading.  Also how much I love how The Outsiders stared and ended on the first lines and that I know every line in the book by heart.

That is what I would love to tell my favorite author! I would tell her Thank you!!! She is the reason I'm here sharing my love of books with all of you. 



Happy Reading!!!

Okay, NOW I see why this question was so easy for you, LOL. That was a great answer, and I'm sure if you told S.E. Hinton that, she would melt into a puddle of authory goo. Or at least that's what I would do if I were her.

I, on the other hand, struggled with this question quite a bit, as you've seen :-)

First off, congrats on being this weeks feature. Your blog is adorable and your answer was awesome. I think the hardest part is choosing a favorite author, to be sure. Those of us, like myself, knew immediately. : )

Anyway, congrats. I'm a new follower.

I never really got into the Outsiders, probably because it was required reading for school. Being forced to read always killed stories for me.

That was an inspirational book. I read it so long ago, and I'm thinking a reread is in order.

I'm not really familiar with S.E Hinton. But I do agree that those authors that made us read, really read are gems and we should be thankful for them. Congratulations on being featured, Ali! :)

Hopping through. Congrats on being the feature! I read The Outsiders in 7th grade. I should re-read it. I liked it then but think I'd like it more now.
