I was tagged by @lakecountylibrary for this fun book questionaire!  

First crush on a fictional character:

Embarrassingly enough...probably a Sweet Valley High character!  I mean Jessica and Elizabeth had some serious happenings going on!

A book that made you cry:

Sarah’s Key seriously made me bawl...this was not single-tears-streaming-lovely-down-the-face cry but rather more like why-is-mom-crying-like-a-crazy-person cry. The book is so moving and haunting though...definitely recommend it, even or maybe even because, of the tears.

A book that was spoiled for you:

Hmmm...I really got nada on this one.  Except for maybe Harry Potter...I will never read Harry Potter because I’ve just had enough already (GASP!). {I’ve seen the movies so don’t hate me too much.}

First book you fell in love with:

The time I would spend on Go, Dog, Go and Are You My Mother?  I still LOVE those books---looking at the illustrations--so much to enjoy! I spent a lot of time NOT reading in my teen years but Little Women and then Tara Road, at different stages of life, made me fall back in love with words and there’s no going back now.

First time you couldn’t stop smiling because of a book or character:

I’m going with Robin @lakecountylibrary, and this being a tricky one.  I’m often moved by books and I love character-driven novels so I do a lot of internal smiling when characters are written really well. I have no idea on the first time it happened...I hope it’s every time!

First person that really impacted your reading:

   My dad...my dad devoured books.  I remember him suggesting The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe to me when I was in third grade...I can’t remember what I ate yesterday but I remember that recommendation. We visited the book resale shop before camping trips so that we could read while in our hammocks. 

I don’t think i have many followers so I’ll just throw out some random tags: @yabooknerdlibrarian
