When you decide to do a big book organize and find a book that belonged to your father. My father passed away last July. I read this book when I was probably a teen! Wouldn't it be dangerous if books were still 49 cents? lol #bookmemory

When I was little I wanted so bad to be a hero of the Lance! 😤

I used to play for hours in the bush behind our house fighting Draconians and searching for dragon orbs. 🏡 😂 🐉

Come to think of it...I still want to go to Krynn and hang out at the Inn of The Last Home in Solace and eat some of Otik's spiced potatoes... 🤔🙋‍♂️

Book 7 for #MountTBR - This was even better than I remembered. I sort of forgot there was a mystery and only remembered that they ran away and lived in a museum. As a child, I thought that was so cool. This #childhoodfavorite held up for me. #Booked2018

Finished: April 20

LibrarianRyan If you like art mysteries for kids try Love this series. 7y

For background—I was a pretty sheltered child. 13 yo me decides to buy my mom a book for Christmas. She enjoys Stephen King or Danielle Steel/Jackie Collins-type authors. I buy her a mass market paperback of Lucky. As I‘m wrapping it, I thumb through it. A few passages catch my eye, and I am immediately 😳🙈🙈🙈. I could not give that to my mother, so I discreetly threw the book out with my garbage and got her another gift. #rip2myyouth #aprella

#Aprella #RIP2MyYouth

This is the comic that started it all for me. I remeber it clearly. I was 8 years old and my mom brought this home for me when I was sick in bed with Tonsillitis.

I've been in love with comic books ever since. 😍

@Cinfhen @Mdargusch @Reviewsbylola @emilyhaldi

Reviewsbylola I love that. What a great memory. ♥️ Minus the tonsillitis part. 7y
emilyhaldi Awesome that your remember the one that started it all! My husband is a total comic nerd - he started reading them when he was little and still loves them now 😊 7y
Mdargusch I can‘t believe you still remember that! 7y
GrilledCheeseSamurai @Mdargusch G.I. Joe and Star Wars were my life blood when I was little. 🤣 7y
Cinfhen I love a good #bookmemory thanks for sharing😊 7y

Reggie Have you ever read the Justin Cronin trilogy? Because in the second one, a group of people are escaping this army encampment being besieged by vampires on a bus driven by this simpleton who shines for this moment in his life as he puts the peddle to the metal and drives through the oncoming horde of vampires. This made me think of it. So thanks!!! 7y

laurieluna Love this choice! 😂 7y
TrishB I still have my childhood copy of this book💕 7y
batsy @RachelO Toot toot!!! 7y
batsy @Reggie No I have not, and that's awesome that it reminded you of that 😂 Would you recommend the series? 7y
batsy @TrishB Mine seems to have gone missing ? But I have the "grown up" version that I bought with pocket money when I was a bit older ? 7y
TrishB Know that feeling! Lots of books seem to disappear over the years. 7y
Reggie @batsy well, I never read the 3rd one. I loved the first halves of the first 2 books but the second halves, meh. So I didn‘t pick up the 3rd. But there are people who love them all. 7y

This book my brother got from the school library, back in the day when we were in school, and never took it back. I read it at some point and it is one of my favorites by Stephen King. #MyOwnEorstEnemy

Cinfhen Ha! I love a good #BookMemory 7y
