It's now the seventh day of the challenge, and in this post I'm asked, 'Do you read? What are your favorite books?'
First things first, do I read?
OF COURSE I READ!!!!
Para saan pa't kumuha ako ng course na book-heavy na tulad ng law, di ba?
So yeah, I LOVE to read, probably way back when I'm not starting school yet. I remember my mom telling me this story that I would snatch the newspaper or comics (this was when comics were a big thing) that she was reading and then start 'reading' it aloud even if I could not read the words properly. Kinda like reading the whole thing in gibberish language, if you know what I mean.
And that went on to grade school and high school. I would read a variety of books -- from encyclopedias to fiction books, with topics ranging from geography to fantasy.
However, I could never say that I'm the most widely-read person that you'll know; simply because while I may have read Bob Ong and F. Sionil Jose, I have not gone as far as reading the likes of The Art of War and The Prince. I admit those are not exactly my cup of tea, but maybe once I got off my law books I could try reading them.
What are my favorite books, you might ask. Click 'Read More' to find out!

1. A Walk to Remember
I could not even begin how in love I am with this story. I cried buckets in both the book and the movie versions. This was one of the books that inspired me to write my own novel.

I rode into the Harry Potter bandwagon later than most Potterheads because I started reading the series just before the first Deathly Hallows movie was shown. But this series was unforgettable for me -- I started reading the first book at the start of the semestral break during my first year in law school, and I finished it just before classes for the second semester began. (Yay!)

Two words: #guiltypleasure. However, I liked how the trust issues among couples are played out in this story, and that's what got me hooked.

4. If I Stay and Where She Went by Gayle Foreman
This series made me think of a lot of things about life, most especially about how people will go on living without me. But between the two books, I like the second book better than the first.
So that's my list of all-time favorite books, I hope you enjoyed it. How about you guys -- do you love to read? What's your favorite books?
