This week’s Feature and follow by Parajunkee and Alison can Read features Books Are My Reality
and Concise Book Reviews. Be sure you follow all four of them, and read their answers as well – it’s always great to learn fun things about our fellow bloggers! If you are a new follower, please let me know so I can follow you back.
The question of the week :
Summer Reading. What was your favorite book that you were REQUIRED to read when you were in school?
I think the book that I had to read that I loved in spite of it being forced to me was George Eliot’s Adam Bede. Yeah, I’m strange that way, but I love the pastoral feel to that book, and the way the characters interacted, how they realized that decisions that one made might have implications on quite a few others as well.
What was your favorite book among the required books? I want to know!
Have a fabulous Friday and a wonderful weekend 🙂

I don't think you're a bad English major even if you haven't heard of this. One of my teachers is a huge George Eliot fan, and she made it even better!Thanks for commenting and following, Heather.Have a great weekend!

Never heard of this! It seems like most book bloggers have problems with authority – not liking being told what to read. LOL. Thanks for stopping by my FF & I'm an old follower too :0)
