The Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge is hosted by Long and Short Reviews. They offer this blog hop as a weekly prompt to help you gain new friends and visitors. You don't have to participate every week, but if you decide to post and join the blog hop for a week, Long and Short Reviews asks that you share your link on their weekly post on their website (it will be the top post on the home page each Wednesday morning). The link list remains open for new links for 48 hours. Visit the other bloggers participating to see what they discuss that week. Comments are appreciated.
Happy Wednesday! Hope your week is going well. I plan to catch up on all comments today in between appointments. It's so crazy to me that I am this busy in January. But fingers crossed, it will all work out the way it should.
Today, we are sharing the books we wish we could read again for the first time. That's such an interesting concept, because even when I read a book a second, third, or fourth time, I discover something new that I never noticed before. Is that odd?
On Strike for Christmas was the first book I read by Sheila Roberts. It will always be my favorite. These women going on strike because they didn't get any help from their families makes me feel seen.
Caroline by Sarah Miller is such a fabulous book. It reminds me that Caroline was more than just Ma. There is more than one scene I would love to read again for the first time.
The Mayflower Bride by Kimberley Woodhouse marks the beginning of this series. I would love to read again for the first time all the books I had read, and then finish the series.
I have read The Thorn Birds by Colleen McCullough so often that when I read it now, I skip over all the wonderful descriptions of the setting. It would be amazing to experience them over again for the first time.
I would love to read again for the first time Flowers in the Attic by V. C. Andrews to see if it captivates me like it did back when I was in high school. I recall bits and pieces of it, but is it really how I remember it?
Shades of Gray by Jessica James made me cry a mountain of tears. I would love to feel that deep emotional connection to it all over again.
When I first read Beyond the Code of Conduct by K. M. Daughters, I read the last chapter three times. It was so good! I would love to experience the final chapter for the first time again. I would probably read it more than once.
One of the best parts of The Long Winter by Laura Ingalls Wilder is seeing Almanzo as the hero of this story. It would be neat to see how I feel if I could read it again for the first time. Would he be just as dashing? What would I think of Cap Garland?
What books would you like to read again for the first time?
