01.03 Materials and Free Choice

 

Hello there!
               Today while I was doing my Reading for College Success course in Florida Virtual School, I got the chance to take a really cool quiz. It was called "What Kind Of Reader Are You ?", basically it asks you a bunch of questions about what you like to read and what things you look for in a book. When I got my results, it concluded that I was the type of person who liked fantasy books. You know the types of books that have wizards, and werewolves in them! It also said that I should read dramatic books. Books that make you cry and keep you at the edge of your seat. I couldn't believe my results, they were extremely accurate! I love being able to cry over a characters death, and wonder what it's like to eat blood like vampires. 
              Recently I read a book called "A Fault in Our Stars" by the author John Greene. Saying this book is good wouldn't do it justice.  When I finished reading this book, I felt like a part of me was missing, like I had lost myself entirely and was only able to recover the necessary elements needed to go on. I think that when you find a book that can make you feel like this you never actually want to stop and go back to your reality, you just want to stay with the character and help it through its problems and be there to see it grow.
