I am a self-proclaim nerd, reading is one of my all-time favorite things to do. I started reading before I turned 5. Yes, I remember this because my grandmother was so proud of me that she reminded me over the years. She was not formally educated but she learned to read and write through her husband. Grandma fell in love with learning in all its many forms and she then instilled that same passion in me.
The first book that I remember reading, besides the Bible. Was Rudyard Kipling’s ” The Jungle Book”. I believe that I have read at least 1,000 books. I sadly can’t remember all the titles at the moment. Yet, it is my goal to try and re-read some of my favorites. Then, I will post a review. I will share what I like and dislike about those books. You should try reading them too.
I welcome feedback on my book reviews and new book recommendations as well!
