•"I am no bird; and no net ensnares me; I am a free human being with an independent will."

by teresa

Re-read my favorite book of all time this week.
Jane Eyre.
Funny...I was assigned this book in high school to read and write a research paper on.
I only read through the first couple of chapters (under duress) and squeaked out some generic report. Why do we only like to do things under our own free will?
I picked it up later in life and fell in love.

What is your favorite book and what age did you read it?

There are too many good books to just select one. Probably Redeeming Love. I never enjoyed reading much when I was younger. Just too many other things that seemed like more fun. I was sure missing out on alot. I love reading now.

you know i'm going to say Harry Potter(s). if i had to pick one, it would be OOTP. i read them back in the stone age of Harry Potter.

my mom LOVES Jane Eyre. she's read it every year for as long as i can remember. i started it, but it was during my training at Carrabba's...so i got distracted and never finished.
