My Answers:

1. What are you currently reading? Tell us about it.

- I am currently reading "The Art Of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein" for this past Tuesday. I started reading this book without knowing anything about it. I didn't know that it was "written by a dog" at all, in fact I totally thought this book was about horse racing, so totally threw me. I am still going to read it, I just don't know what to expect.

After that I will probably be reading "Elixir by Hilary Duff"

2. What book first made you fall in love with reading?

-"Music of the Dolphins by Karen Hesse". I really need to post my story on this book. 

3. Summer is a great time for series.  What are your series recommendations?

-Besides "Hunger Games", I haven't really found a series that I enjoy.  The
Matched" is good but kinda blah. Harry Potter (get ready to gasp) was too many books for me, I lost interest.  I have started many recently but I haven't finished. Since, I also judge the series as a whole I can't really say they are my favorite but I would recommend them on what I know. (check out my "Book Ends" tag)

4 .Does a song come to mind with the book you are currently reading? If so what it is?

-That's hard because I just reached chapter two.... 

5. Are you participating in any summer reading challenges?

-I am. It's from Semi-Charmed Kind of Life. I posted all about it HERE.
