Personally, I love to read fiction books, preferably mystery/suspense or fantasy. They really let the imagination go to work, instead of sticking to fact. My favorite books to read are the Harry Potter Series. They are the books that are out of the ordinary, something that you don't see or read every day. I usually read every day in the summer time, waiting for camp to start, before bed, etc.
Some of the books I've read in the past year are the J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter Series, Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot Mysteries, and Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. I would recommend the last two books to my friends because they are both quite interesting and they make you think logically in order to solve the mystery.
Some books I would like to read, but there is one that I would love to get my hands on. It is called Plato and a Platypus Walked into a Bar: Understanding Philosophy Through Jokes. I came across the cover and title of this book whilst skimming a Heifer magazine, and I thought it looked interesting. I had never read a book on philosophy, but it hooked me the moment I saw it. I hope to get it soon.
The way I find good books to read (they are usually good) is to ask my mom if she has any recommendations on good books. She has read, as far as I'm concerned, a lot of books with different genres. She is the one that got me started on the Agatha Christie novels, having owned some of the books, and later, letting me read some.
I have never found the perfect book to read. To me, the perfect book would consist of all genres, put together in a way that would make sense. It would be about two worlds, one of them being Earth and the other a distant planet, planet Vesuvius, meaning "knowing all" in their language. There is a portal that connects Earth and Vesuvius, though only one planet knows about it. The people on Vesuvius would know all about Earth, how it was formed, what can destroy it, etc. However, on Earth, no one in their right minds would ever think there was such a planet. At first, it seems that both planets are safe, everyone living their lives the way they were meant to be. In the end, it is foretold that none of the planets will see light again. On Vesuvius, one of the young girls, Fera, senses danger and starts a wild adventure with Tom, a boy from Earth, to try and save both planets from their foretold death.
I signed up to take "Blogging about Reading" because it sounded interesting and I had never made a blog before. I think it will be good for the future, in case I need to create a blog for school. That way, at least I'll know how to start one.
