We all have books that are special to us. Today's challenge is to choose a book or books that you have received as a gift/gifts that mean something special to you.
I couldn't just pick one book for this challenge. There were three books that I received for Christmas presents in consecutive years. My parents knew how much books meant to me; they are both readers and they instilled their love of reading in me. They know I love the classics, but they also know how much I love fantasy and science fiction. One year I received The Complete Works of Edgar Allan Poe and The Complete Works of William Shakespeare! I was so excited! Another year, I received Legends, which was a book that I had been wanting for awhile. It had all of my favorite fantasy authors in it. Another year, I received a two volume set of Jane Austen's works.
Awesome that your parents encouraged your reading! I have the complete works of Edgar Allen Poe and William Shakespeare. I totally forgot about Jane Austen who is my absolute favorite author! Ooops!
