Day 2 of the 30 Day Book Meme

The 30 Day Book MeMe is being hosted by At Chimneys and Magic! I thought this was a really great idea! I can’t wait to play along!




Day 1 - Favorite Book You Read Last Year

Today’s Question
Day 2 – A Book You Have Read At least 3 Times

Well, I have a lot of these books. When I find a book I love…I find it difficult to leave it on the shelf. 

However, there is a series that has a special place in my heart and I have read each book in it at least 5 times.
I’m sure many of you could guess the series; however, as I have stated many times on my about me page, my review page, and numerous other pages…do unto others as you would have them do unto you. 

The Twilight Saga has helped and continues to help me through some of the toughest times in my life. I was dealing with some very powerful stuff when a friend recommended The Twilight Saga by Stephenie Meyer to me. I bought Twilight and found a way to escape from the pain and trauma I was living. And, to this very day…if something has me down or depressed, I pull out Twilight, Eclipse, or Breaking Dawn (I don’t really care for New Moon all that much.)

Twilight Saga

This stunning set, complete with five editions of Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, Breaking Dawn, and The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner: An Eclipse Novella, makes the perfect gift for fans of the bestselling vampire love story. 
 
Deeply romantic and extraordinarily suspenseful, The Twilight Saga capture the struggle between defying our instincts and satisfying our desires. (Barnes and Noble)

Day 3 - Your Favorite Series...no, it's not The Twilight Saga...you will have to check back tomorrow to get that answer.

Day 01 – The Best Book You Read Last Year?
Oh…this is a tough one…so many great books out there! But this one will work!

City of Glass
Synopsis:
To save her mother's life, Clary must travel to the City of Glass, the ancestral home of the Shadowhunters -- never mind that entering the city without permission is against the Law, and breaking the Law could mean death. To make things worse, she learns that Jace does not want her there, and Simon has been thrown in prison by the Shadowhunters, who are deeply suspicious of a vampire who can withstand sunlight.

As Clary uncovers more about her family's past, she finds an ally in mysterious Shadow-hunter Sebastian. With Valentine mustering the full force of his power to destroy all Shadow-hunters forever, their only chance to defeat him is to fight alongside their eternal enemies. But can Downworlders and Shadowhunters put aside their hatred to work together? While Jace realizes exactly how much he's willing to risk for Clary, can she harness her new found powers to help save the Glass City -- whatever the cost?

Love is a mortal sin and the secrets of the past prove deadly as Clary and Jace face down Valentine in the final installment of the New York Times bestselling trilogy The Mortal Instruments.

I was sad that this was the end of the trilogy, but then Cassandra surprised us with City of Fallen Angels!

Tomorrow – A book that you have read more than 3 times…hmmm!
