Top 5 Sundays!
Hi guys!
This week is a walk in memory lane and I have some stories to tell along with my picks =D
Hope you'll stick around, comment and join me! =)
This week’s results:
The theme for today is:
Books That Started Your Book Addiction!
But first, a little bit about this feature and the rules to join in…
Every Sunday I will post a TOP 5 list on the blog. It can be about anything and every week I'll have a new theme {You can vote on next week’s theme on my left sidebar!} and I will ad the Mr.Linky bellow the post so you can do a list with the theme and add you link to it.
Rules:
- Write a post listing your TOP 5 choices within the theme I chose (or was chosen on a poll) for the week.
- Mention this Blog on the post and link back to it.
- Fell free to use the Feature's image (there is a smaller size version of it bellow)
- After you've finished your post, add you link (of the post, not your blog's main page) to the Mr.Linky at the end of that week's post.
- If you don’t have a blog to post, just leave your list in the comments =)
*in no particular order
Harry Potter
by J.K. Rowling
I remember like it was yesterday when my dad gave me the first 3 books in the series for Xmas. They were the only ones released in Portuguese at the time and I devoured the book in 3 days. I was so restless for the 4th, that my dad bought me it in English. I was about 17 at the time and reading was definitely a challenge, but an awesome one!
The Little Vampire
by Angela Sommer-Bodenburg
My fist foray into the Vampire world! I used to read this series as a kid and loved it soooo much! I had forgotten about them until recently. These books bring me great memories =D
Twilight Saga
by Stephenie Meyer
I know, I know... but I have to admit that even though I have always loved reading, the addiction I have started about 5 years ago. I read the Twilight books 5 times in a row and was obsessed I wanted more in that vein and that brought me to my love for PNR, Paranormal YA and UF. I will be forever thankful to Twilight for that!
Lord of The Rings
by J. R. R. Tolkien
Another challenge for me, since I read it in English as well... Love the books, but this is the only instance so far where I actually prefer the movies, despite something that I still feel were missing from them.
Narcissus in Chains
by Laurell K. Hamilton
Weird pick, huh? Even though I started teaching English early and the fact that I kept reading Harry Potter in English every year, this was the first ADULT book I ever read in English. It was a bit daunting and I am aware I didn't understand 100% of it at the time, but I fixed that in a re-read of the series a couple years ago =)
An interesting tidbit? My Grandmother gave me this book! LOL
