Challenge Day 5: A Book You Love

So I realize that I have now missed a day. But again, I was out trying to be my (non)-socialite self! My friend Emily and I went to see "Thriller" at Kingsbury Hall last night and it was amazing! I loved it! Plus we were able to go get pizza and beer at The Pie. I blame 2 people in general for getting me to actually drink beer: Emily and Dave. End of story. I still don't really enjoy it, but when there isn't an option to have a mixed drink it should do. Bleh (or not).

Anyway today's (or yesterday) challenge is a book that I love. This is a ridiculously hard one for me. I get that most people are like really? I love books and one in particular. Or they are of the camp of really? I can't stand reading! I am of the I LOVE books camp but I am also the world's worst decision maker! My students are always asking, "Ms. Kofford, what's your favorite color? song? band? movie? food? book?" and I never can give them an answer. "I don't have favorites," I tend to reply. Which is generally true!

I blame my book choice on being a elementary school teacher and thus YA books still really appeal to me. I should be more of an adult I get this, but sometimes it's nice to read something that my brain doesn't have to over-process or analyze. One author I used to read in high school, and still do because I love her stuff, is Sarah Dessen. I have quite a few books of hers that I really love but my favorite in particular is "Just Listen". Since I am so connected to music this book really resonates with me :) I won't tell you more than the fact that it's just a good book for the sake of being a good book! So you should definitely read it haha (this could also be for the fact that some awesome French toast and bacon are calling my name).
