I have been away for awhile...school! But today I want to tell you about the book series that made me fall in love with reading. Reading for me was very challenging because of speech and learning disabilities.. ( I was a really slow reader in class). The summer before my freshman year of high school my brother gave me this book called Twilight yes Twilight! I read it in like 3 days which was impressive for me than ( I also didn't go to sleep til 3am )....Anyway i finished the series in a week! Since than I read about a book a day. My advice find a book that really interests you before you know it you'll be a book warm too! Trust me it opens a whole new world for you...
