Myself as a reader I don't know where my love for reading came from.  My parents haven't read a book since high school or collage.  Nobody in my family likes to read they don't find it as fun as I do.  I don't remember my parents ever reading me a story. In intermediate school I was obsessed with the Junie B. Jones books I was always sitting down and reading multiple books at a time.  I was always re-reading the too. When I got to middle school The Hunger Games was really popular.  I read, and love, those books and I would re-read them if I owned them.  As a reader I find it really hard to read a series of books.  For me it's hard to sit down and commit myself to the same characters doing the same things.  For example, in sixth grade I tried to read the Harry Potter series.  I got halfway through book three and stopped because the same story and characters with the same problem stretched out like that gets boring to me.  Or more recently, this year I tried to read Divergent.  I finished the first book and loved it.  As soon as I started the second book I wasn't motivated to finish it like I feel I need to be to read a book.  I have yet to still read the second and third book.  When I read books I like to read books that draw you in from the very beginning. Books that have action (usually).  I also love Nicholas Sparks. I could read his books all day if my mom would let me.  I miss in Intermediate school when we had those beach days where we wore comfy clothes and brought pillow and blankets and all we did was read all day.










I am not like the main character in my story because I do not feel the need to put my life at stake for a rush.  A roller coaster ride is good enough for me. He feels the need to do dangerous stunts and put his life and others lives at steak just for a rush. I am more of a person who takes extra caution for the safety of others.
