The Book Whisperer- Chapter 4

I really liked the ideas that were displayed in his chapter in regards to genre. I liked how she gave them a bucket of books with no label and they had to guess the genre. I definitely want to discuss genre a lot more with my firsties.

One of the questions that was addressed in the book was how you pick out books. I pick mine out a few ways:

1. Friend recommondations

2. Author's I like

3. Books that I see movie trailers for! I always want to read the book and then watch the movie! 

Current books I have read due to movie trailers:

1. Water for Elephants

2. Something Borrowed

3. Hunger Games (reading now...)

I like that Miller talked about what abandoning a book when it is not your type of book! I couldn't agree with this more! There is nothing worse than laboring through a horrible book! I abandoned books before and I am sure I will again!
