Today's YA Highway Road Trip Wednesday topic is:
What books were you obsessed with as a kid?
I was obsessed with a lot of books as a kid
I don't know how you want me to pick just a few. I mean, I was a very prolific reader.
And my parents were VERY good about bookstores. They never really questioned what I read, so I read all across the board.
And there were a lot of random library finds. All those four-book series from the 90s that never picked up. Bobbsey Twins, Nancy Drew...I'm not sure you could say I was really obsessed with one thing.
Or that I knew the complete guide by heart.
And NEVER did one book series populate my entire list of imaginary friends.....
What? Claudia Kishi's phone number? It's KL5-3231. Why?
Anyone remember the lame computer game from the late-90s? No! No, me either! No, I didn't spend hours on it....
You know, guys, I don't know what has me thinking this, but one of these days I should do a review of Jessi's Secret Language. That's random, huh?
PS: Why does she look Native American on this cover?
OMG, I LOVE that you still know Claud's phone number! LOLOL
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you remember her phone number! (Also, what's with the KL5?)
ReplyDeleteCool! I'm going to venture a guess and say you're a Babysitters' Club fan. :)
ReplyDeleteSince I graduated high school in 87, I totally missed these books - my daughter's picked up a couple, but we haven't read them yet - I'm thinking they will be beach reads this summer.
To my eternal shame, I never did read The Babysitters Club'! I'll have to make up for lost time and read them all this summer...
ReplyDeleteFor me it was pretty much The Lord of the Rings and The Chronicles of Prydain.
ReplyDeleteI used to love those books!
ReplyDeleteHi Just made my way over from Matt's blog. You're book sounds great! :o) New follower!
ReplyDeleteFor me it was Nancy Drew mostly. I loved suspense, mystery, adventure. Outside of the Nancy Drew series, I read more books catered towards boys.
ReplyDeleteNice!
