Harry Potter.
I can't figure it out myself...all I know is that I was an avid reader all of my life, then couldn't read even a magazine article for several years, then discovered Harry Potter. The writing was captivating and got me excited about reading again.
Even though I've read all seven books several times over, if you put one in my hands, it still draws me in and holds me as if it's my first time.

a good fiction. So weird to say that because prior to 2006 I was strictly a non-fiction reader....I didn't want to spend any time on anything that wasn't real. Now I've learned to read for enjoyment and some escape.

I'm reading The Pillars of the Earth right now and it's fascinating. It's about the 1800's, royalty, earls, monks and a little sex thrown in.
I recently read Escape, which is about polygamy and I couldn't put it down.
But, back on topic...I love true crime for some strange reason.

Any book with a good title or cover art. I don't even have to read, I can sit and imagine what's inside. A book has soul(s), to me, not only from the characters, but from the writer, editor, publisher, and all who have read the book.
