Re: How old were you when you found your love for books?
But I started reading more when I was at college since some of my classmates recommended me books or I just read what they read.

But the first book I really fell in love with was "The Hounds Of The Morrigan" by Pat O'Shea. I was 11 and it was the first time that my mother let me pick a book all on my own and said to me that it was too big for me and that if I wouldn't finish it, she would never buy me books again.
I finished the book long before my mother ever imagined and she didn't want to buy another book so soon. Since then when someone asked me what I wished for my birthday or Christmas, my answer was always the same: books!
