RE: Paying it Forward (#PIF) - How much do you Love Books? Contest ed 6 (Delegations, HBI & tokens)
Hey, we are back again, yayyyy, let me get into these questions.
Tell us about one of the pivotal moments that cemented your love for reading. Was it a person, a place, a specific book, or a story?
Pivotal moment that cemented my love for reading wasn't a place or a book, it was a feeling, books always made me feel safe at the point when I started reading them, and for an introverted shy girl, I loved that feeling.
What are your top 3 books from your childhood and tell us about your social affinity to one of your faves; how it found a place in your heart.
Top three favorite books from childhood are;
-why you act the way you do by Tim Lahaye
-Rules of life by Richard Templar
-Things fall apart by Chinua Achebe
I'll say the one that has my heart forever is "why you act the way you do".
The reason is because my love for psychology and studying people came from this book.
Share with us 3 of your favorite authors and titles that you have read as an adult, where you either had to acquire your own copy for your personal library or would go back and reread for the sheer joy and experience of it.
- James Bradley chase
- Emotional intelligence by Daniel goleman
- The prayer of Jabez by Darlene Wilkinson
I have more but if I started writing we might not leave here 😆
Anyways I will be tagging @stevenson7 @deraaa and @piratethanos to participate in this.
Ayiii....
I read Things fall apart at University, alongside Heart of Darkness and other books exploring the colonial impact on Africa, and they left indelible imprints on my memory, much like Alan's Paton's Cry, the beloved country and Ah, but your land is beautiful that I read during my High School years. Achebe writes very well indeed.
Loved things fall apart, I read it so many times, couldn't even keep count.
Also, you just showed me some books I'll explore.
