Could be the book you loved the most, the series you daydreamed about, book that inspired you, fascinated you, your comfort read…anything.
And why.
I LOVED the Anne McCaffrey Pern books. I would walk around daydreaming about new adventures set in the books’ world. The Dragonsong books really connected my love of music with my love of fantasy (and animals).
It USED to be the Harry Potter series before JK Rowling showed her awful true colors. I was a hufflepuff and that helped influence me to go into social work. Now i just cringe any time I think about the series. My (trans) wife and I bonded over how much we loved this series at first and then grew to hate it together. What a disappointment.
My other favorite is the Giver because of how Jonas slowly learned about his ‘utopia’ not being what it seemed and the color integration I thought was so cool. I thought about getting a book sleeve tattoo with small icons from my favorite. I wanted to do an apple fading from gray to red but didn’t want people to think it was Twilight
