Day 04 — Your favourite book
Tuesday, June 22, 2010
Okay, this is gonna be a bookwormish kind of post. Read at your own risk :]
I use to go through periods where I would read several books written by a particular author and when I get bored of their style, I would jump to another author.
In primary, the main 'author phases' I went through were Roald Dahl (=D!!), Andy Griffiths (Just __ books), Mel Odom (Sabrina + Mack Bolan series), Paul Jennings, Michael Hoeye, Morris Gleitzman, Emily Rodda (Deltora Quest ahaha + Rowan series + Teen Power Inc.) and J.R.R. Tolkien (Lord of the Rings yo). I really liked Michael Hoeye's children's mystery novel series The Hermux Tantamoq Adventures, particularly the first novel Time Stops for No Mouse.
At some point during those phases, my cousin introduced me to the first Harry Potter book and I was hooked. The first movie then came out, leading me to read all the other written HP books at that time. Yet until now, I still haven't read the last HP book LOL (*shame*).
Some stage in year 7/8, I started reading Jane Austen novels ahahaha. I have three copies of Pride and Prejudice at home and have read it at least four times rofl. Saaddd. There was also the Witch novel & comic series, though I gave up on that because I grew out of it (it's still on going). After that, there was also a Lemony Snicket stage where I read and bought all the Series of Unfortunate Events books, and I remember lending it to so many people right before the release of it's final book ahahah. Emily introduced me to manga sometime in yr 7/8 as well, so I started reading all these manga books online or whenever I went to Kino. Then it was John Marsden (Tomorrow series), Robin Wasserman (Seven Deadly Sins series), Dan Brown novels. I can't think of another other author phases I had, on the top of my head lol. Then there were also the miscellaneous novels in between all of this.
When senior years started, I just read anything that was recommended or sounded interesting, regardless of the author.
Anyway, back to the point of this post.
I actually don't know what my favourite book of all time is cos I like too many ahaha.
So in the end, this post was pointless and didn't even address the challenge.
The end~
On a side note, all my bio notes are done! :D
Now, memorising time.
