1) Suzanne Collins author of “The Hunger Games series”
I just loved the first book in the series. I haven’t read the second one yet, but it’s definitely on my TBR pile. I really identified with Katniss, being a big sister myself, and I empathized with her situation in the story.
2) C.S. Lewis author of “The Chronicles of Narnia”
I read all the books in the Narnia series…many moons ago! LOL! I loved the world that C.S. Lewis created in those books. I also grew up with two brothers and a sister so the stories really hit home for me in that respect. J
3) Louisa May Alcott author of “Little Women”
I loved this book growing up. It was a story of four sisters and their relationship to each other. I identified with Jo who was the tomboy in the story. I loved her fiery spirit and her love for her sisters.
4) Rebecca Stead author of “When you Reach Me”
This story really took me by surprise. I picked it up because it was a Newberry winner and I really enjoyed it. It was very well written and there were quite a few twists and turns that I didn’t see coming. I love those kinds of books! J
5) Clare Vanderpool author of “Moon over Manifest”
I picked this book up because it was a Newberry winner and I really enjoyed the characters and the story. It was an emotional read and went much deeper than I expected. J
