Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Jennifer at Crazy For Books.
What book influenced or changed your life? How did it influence/change you?
My answer: Well, no book has really changed my life... I suppose, and I'm not shamed to say it, that Twilight by Stephenie Meyer sort of influenced my life, because when I first read it, it inspired me to read more, and because I read Twilight, I've discovered so many more great books, full of awesome characters and exciting plots. It's not that I didn't read before that, because I did, but not as much. So, in that way, Twilight influenced me, but didn't really change my life... But then again, if I hadn't read it, I wouldn't have made this blog, and wouldn't have met all you awesome people out there! So I'm glad I did. =]
Follow Friday is hosted by ParaJunkee at ParaJunkee's View
What book(s) have you discovered lately from someone's book blog?
My answer: Ooh, there are so many answers to that question... I've been reading people's 2011 Debut Author Challenge posts, and finding all the books on their lists, and so now I've got some great books to buy that are by debut authors this year, and I'm so excited to read them! There are too many books and blogs to list though :L

Well at least you're not ashamed to admit it! My book goes back a couple more years when I read it in 2001! Oh lord, that was 10 years ago?!

ReplyDeleteHi, I'm stopping by from FF. I am an old follower =D
ReplyDeleteMe too. If not for Twilight I wouldn't have read such amazing series and I just have to thank Meyer for creating Twilight =D

ReplyDeleteSo which book do will you read first?
Aleetha - It's All About Books
I have a similar answer to yours. Although, Twilight did actually get me to read because I read very rarely before I read Twilight. :)
ReplyDeleteStopping by from the Blog Hop - new follower!
ReplyDeleteI had the same answer for the book that influenced me and for the same reasons! LOL! You know what they say about great minds!
This will probably come of something as a surprise but the book that changed/influenced my life (more than any other) is a non-fiction book. I know we all focus on novels and the fanciful fiction we love to read but The Four Work Week is the book that gets all the credit. I know the title sounds fictional but it really isn’t. Hop over to my blog and find out why – http://www.howardsherman.net
ReplyDeleteHappy Book Blogger Hop Day!

ReplyDeleteThank you, thank you for someone who IS NOT ASHAMED of loving Twilight.
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!
My Hop
I chose Twilight, too! It was one of the first books where I interacted with others, complete strangers, on various plot points. It brought in a whole new element to reading.
ReplyDeleteI can agree Twilight did start me really getting into reading. Nice blog by the way! I'm new a follower
