Day 01 - A favorite book of 2011 (so far)
Yeah, way to start out with a difficult topic. I've read so many great books this year, and choosing my favorite is all but impossible. Excluding nonfiction (I don't read a lot of nonfic, but what I do read is amazing), there are three novels that have totally absolutely 100% blown me away this year. I'm going with Gayle Forman's Where She Went for this one just because I was in such a bad mood when I read it and somehow it turned everything completely around. It's such a powerful and beautiful book and Forman is an incredible writer. I love the characters and I love especially the setting of the book -- New York City, and the whole thing takes place over the course of a day and night.
I really loved this book too, and this 40 day book challenge sounds really awesome :)
ReplyDeleteUm, yes.
ReplyDeleteI want to do this. I don't know how I'm going to fit these posts in, but I WANT TO DO THIS.
I liked Where She Went, but I didn't love it the way I feel 99% of readers did. What is wrong with me?

No, I've heard others who haven't liked it as much or have liked If I Stay more. It happens... different books for different people.
You should TOTALLY do the 40 Day Challenge. Fit the days in wherever you can, like I'm doing.
