Today I want to talk about the books that got you reading. Is there a series or a stand-alone that you can pinpoint and say ‘This, this right here transformed me into a full blown book nerd.’ For me, that book is A Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor. This series set my soul on fire and before you start commenting *NO SPOILERS PLEASE*... I love this story so much, I haven’t been able to bring myself to finish it. I’ve read book one and two and intend to read 0.5 this year but the big number three! Awww, my feels are too strong. I love these characters, I find pieces of myself in these characters and traits I wish I had. This story has so many layers of intense emotion that absolutely tears through your heart. It is clever, witty, romantic and bitter. It’s everything you want a story to be. So, if you haven’t read the first book. Go, go now and find it! Reading the rest of this post can wait.
Laini Taylor, thank you so much for writing these books. This is truly a book that stirred my passion intensely. It made me the book nerd I am today. For that, I can never repay you.
So, for you my reader, can you identify the book that started it all off? Please comment and let me know so we can all add them to our #TBR list.
If you are also a writer, I shall leave you with this amazing quote by the ever amazing Laini Taylor herself that I have on my office wall where I write ‘Be an unstoppable force. Write with an imaginary machete strapped to your thigh. This is not a wishy-washy, polite, drinking-tea-with-your-pinkie-sticking-our stuff. It’s who you want to be, your most powerful self. Write your books. Finish them, then, make them better. Find the way. No one will make this dream come true for you but you.’
