What book turned you on to reading and how old were you?

[Booklover11]

My parents had always read to me when I was little so I always had a love for reading but the book that got me completely hooked on reading was Harry Potter. I remember staying up all night reading the first one. Thankfully it has turned into such a huge franchise that there are still books/movies coming out so I can still get my fix.

I don't remember the first few books I read, but I do remember loving to read the Magic Tree House Series. I was so excited when my sister began to read them too.

A Series of Unfortunate Events! I think I was around 10. I got it for my birthday and was a little upset because who would want a book? But once I started, I couldn't put it down and asked for the rest of the series for subsequent Christmases and birthdays. Couldn't stop reading after that

I had always enjoyed books, going back to my toddler years when my parents would read me bedtime stories. But, the first time I remember really embracing reading as a hobby was in the 3rd grade. My best friend turned me on to Nancy Drew books. I felt very grown-up because they were the first chapter books I had ever read. There was no turning back after that.

I was 7 and it was the Berenstein bears eat too much junk food.

I kind of have 2 answers for this. The first time I began reading avidly was when I discovered Harry Potter from one of my classmates. I think that was Year 4. But I kind of don't count that because it was Harry Potter . The second time was when we started our English literature course in GCSEs and since then I have had a strong interest in classic literature, beginning with Great Expectations

I read some other books before but never stuck with it. I was about 23 when I become an avid reader. So a bit of a late bloomer. The Hunger Games by Susan Collins was the book that pulled me in and kept me to reading.

Richard Scarry's Best Storybook Ever!! I LOVED thst book, and read it over and over again. I don't remember how old I was but I know I must have worn it down.

Harry Potter and Sorcerer's Stone is the book that actually ignited my passion for reading. when i was young i have observed i loved books, those that has stories on them. I would spent time reading them over and over again. When i bought the first Harry Potter book, i couldn't put it down. I read it in a day and i wanted more after then.

Comic books, teen books. Achievable books. Once you read a few you feel empowered and begin loving to read.

I started reading Harry Potter in third grade and fell in love with the entire series! It opened up my mind to a whole new world that I will never be able to stray far from.

I was 10 when I read pride and prejudice since then, reading has always been a hobby of mine

My mom started reading to me very early and one of those first books she read me was Charlotte's Web. I was probably 2 or 3 so I've been a book lover virtually my whole life!

Siddharta. I know, not really an easy book lol. I remember hating it in school because we were forced to read it. Now it's there on my shelf, one of the books I keep coming back to.
