Welcome to my meme, Monday Memories, where I feature
favorite books we've loved from the past. You can link to an old review, or
write something new about a beloved book from your past. Really, what's
important is not the book, but why it is memorable to you. So, have fun
reminiscing, and leave a comment below, so we can all enjoy your memories.
I also wanted to let you know about another wonderful blog
that you should check out. Ashley @ Books from Bleh to Basically Amazing does a
weekly post called Memory Monday. She has been posting about her childhood
memories of books. What's great about Ashley's site is that she is asking for
guest posts for her Memory Monday event!
So hop on over there and check it out.
Gone With the Wind was my first "chunkster" book. I read this while I was in high school, and remember loving it. It might still be the longest book I've ever read...I've been trying to think if any longer, and none quite match up to the 1000+ pages of this tome. You know, it IS better than the movie, so if you think you've done enough by watching the movie, you should really read this. It's long, but it goes fast because it is well written and keeps your interest. I often have the urge to read this one again. Someday.....
Share one of your cherished book memories!

I loved Gone with the Wind. I read it two summers ago and was blown away (no pun intended). I liked it so much I went and bought Scarlett and Rhett Butler's People. I haven't read either yet, but I just didn't want to let the story go.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Gone with the Wind, I've read it three times now and each time it gets better. Great post!
