This is the first link-up in the Preview to Summer series, designed for participants in the blogger book swap to get to know each other better and to talk about amazing books.
I chose a simple, yet difficult, topic for our first link-up. While everyone has a list of favourites, it's difficult to narrow it down to only three. That's what I want you to do. Think about it for a few moments and share your three favourite books and why you love them so.
There are obviously many other books that I love, but these three are ones that have remained favourites for years now. Some recent favourites may eventually take a top spot after some re-reads, but as of right now, these three are the winners.
- WICKED by Gregory Maguire If you've read book posts on my blog before, it should come as no surprise that I love this book. Elphaba will always be my favourite fictional character. Maguire's writing style continues to astound me, no matter how many times I read the book. (I read it often.)
- HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX by J.K. Rowling I love the entire Harry Potter series, but OotP is my favourite of the seven books. I know it's most readers' least favourite, but I really liked all of the backstory in #5. Spoiler alert: With Voldemort returning at the end of GoF, OoTP brought the series to another level. I have tremendous respect for Rowling's imagination.
- WUTHERING HEIGHTS by Emily Bronte I'm not much of a romance reader, but this book has stolen my heart away on countless occasions. It also helps that there are ghosts and the writing is very gothic.
