To Read or Not to Read…

Thank you to my colleagues who have shared their book titles they are reading.  We all have different preferences when it comes to books. I tend to read books with “happy endings,” but I also like to be introduced to other types of books. Although I do read all genres of books from science fiction to fantasy to thrillers to romance to historical fiction as long as they have a “happy” ending or at least a “satisfying” ending, I’m ecstatic and content.  I don’t want everyone killed. I want GOOD to triumph over evil and I want people to live happily ever after. I will confess that I even  read the ending first before I start a book. I would have never read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows if Harry Potter had died at the end.  I was very interested in Ann’s review of Dewey: A Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World. It sounds like a wonderful book and one that I can recommend to others but it is one that I will never read because I never, never, ever, read ANIMAL books. I cry. Ever since I sobbed my way through Charlotte’s Web, I haven’t touched another book with an animal on a cover. There are too many other books out in the wonderful world of Bookland to read, so I will let others read those ANIMAL books and I will stick to my “happy” endings. Hey, it doesn’t matter what you read but that you READ so Happy Reading!                                                                                      ~Donna

“If you want a happy ending, that depends, of course, on where you stop your story.”
