Origins - Literature - 200

Objective:

Read a novel that you loved as a teen or tween.

Details:

1) Think back to your childhood- specifically to the ages during which you were reading novels, but before you graduated highschool.

What sort of novels were you reading during this time period? What was your favorite novel? If you had several favorites, feel free to consider them all!

2) Choose a novel you LOVED during the time period described above. (If you didn’t have a love of books during this time, adjust this objective and re-read the first novel you loved later in life. Or, re-read a novel you read during this time and see whether or not you can find things you love about it now that you didn’t in the past!)

3) Re-read the novel! (Listening to the audio version is great too!)

4) Write a short book review and post it in the comments below. Be sure to include:

  • The title and author

  • The age you were when you first read it

  • A brief description of the plot and/or premise

  • Why you loved it as a young person

  • Anything that surprised you about the novel the second time around
