Some of them I read 5 or 6 times each. They were far and away my very favorite books, and I read them until they were falling apart. And then I found Sweet Vally High, and from there just about any romance novel or historical fiction book. Now I love all of the YA books that are available, even though I'm definitely A and not YA.Amy S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10847608268940674086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8392182043945362363.post-83824253610151769832012-04-17T20:53:12.405-04:002012-04-17T20:53:12.405-04:00I think a writer's marathon sounds so interest...I think a writer's marathon sounds so interesting! Have any "good" novels been produced through such an endeavor? Any novels that have been released commercially?<br /><br />I generally like short novels and novellas--something I can read in an evening or lazily on a weekend. A long novel takes a BIG time commitment for me as I'm a pretty slow reader.Catherine Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14998035693869891918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8392182043945362363.post-7225867889323128082012-04-17T08:17:51.862-04:002012-04-17T08:17:51.862-04:00Thank you MJ for having me here today.

I couldn't get enough books out of the library at school. It was like I was afraid if I didn't sign it out right away it might not be available when I come back for it.<br />Of course on the other side, those kids who had a problem reading or didn't like to read and enjoy the stories read almost nothing, unless they had to for school. And even then, if they could find Coles notes they wouldn't read it at all LOL.<br />PeterPeter A Brandthttp://www.peterabrandt.canoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8392182043945362363.post-73524209761513380902012-04-17T08:11:20.305-04:002012-04-17T08:11:20.305-04:00Thank you for that.
