Q. Talk about the book that most changed or influenced your life (was it a book that turned you from an average to avid reader, did it help you deal with a particularly difficult situation, does it bring you comfort every time you read it?).


Dangerous Angels: The Weezie bat books was one of the first series I ever read. I devoured the series in one week. Practically reading a book a day because I had to get to the end.

I could relate to the character of Weezie and how it followed her through her life.

I've loved Francesca lia block ever since.

This reminds me I need to read more from her.
