I was never an avid reader growing up. I pretty much had to be forced to read, I even remember in the 4th grade I was so far behind in my reading booklets I had to miss recess most days to catch up, and other times my mom and dad had to switch off reading every other page with me just to finish a book for a book report due usually the next day....

I was never an avid reader growing up. I pretty much had to be forced to read, I even remember in the 4th grade I was so far behind in my reading booklets I had to miss recess most days to catch up, and other times my mom and dad had to switch off reading every other page with me just to finish a book for a book report due usually the next day. But the flood gates opened shortly after reading Harry Potter and I can't seem to get enough. I love fantasies and mostly young adult. I mentioned to a co-worker that I have enough stress in my life that I don't want to read about the same stresses in adult books, I use my reading to get away from it all, go on adventures from my living room and never return the same. I am currently working on my first book and hope to legitimately say I am an author in the near future. As Jack Prelutsky once wrote (and my younger brother brilliantly recited when he was itty-bitty) "I've done it all in books I've read..." and I plan on doing just that. Happy reading :0)
