My Absolute Favorites

I've been meaning to get to this page, but whenever I would come back here and look at that word "absolute" a million different things would go through my head.  By absolute, like all time favorite? All time favorite in fantasy? All time favorite in contemporary? The ultimate supreme favorite of the all time favorites? Is there such thing as all time favorites in books? Wouldn't that be like asking me to pick my favorite type of ice cream (mint, vanilla, peppermint, sherbet, rocky road, strawberry)?

So, anyways. :)

After hours and hours and hours of deliberation, I've narrowed it down to the ones listed below. (In no particular order):D
And of course, this list will constantly be changing :)

I have to say that I completely understand where you are coming from when you ask "what kind of favorite?" I have to do the same thing! But, I do have a few books that I could read over and over without ever getting tired of them, so I call those my all time favs.

The Safe Lands series by Jill Williamson (I can't wait for book 3 to come out in August!)

Anything by Mark Twain

And really anything by Lauraine Snelling.

I have a lot of other ones, but, none are quite as special to me as these!

I love your blog by the way!

Oooo! I haven't heard of the Safe Land series, but it sounds super interesting! I'm def. going to add that to my TBR list ;)

I've only read one book by Mark Twain (Huckleberry Finn), and I liked it, but it wasn't really one of my favorites. I've been meaning to pick up Tom Sawyer, and who knows? Maybe I'll absolutely love that one!:)

I haven't heard of Lauraine Snelling. Is there a specific book you would recommend from her?

Thank you so much!:) Also, thank you for stopping by!!!:)
