What books/series made you fall in love with reading

[Ma Leonarda Castañares]

What drew you to the books? Did you have friends who had read and recommended it?

It’s a good app if you finally built your own algorithm. For me, my algorithm is all about books so it keeps showing me book recs and reviews
I came across it on tiktok and i’d say, it's definitely worth it!

TikTok is a little young for me, or perhaps I’m too old for it I’m glad it can have a positive aspect and help with reading recommendations

It was definitely Enid Blyton's books (especially the "Secret Seven" and "Famous Five" series) that turned me into a bibliophile. They opened up a whole world of adventure and imagination for me.

I read a lot of the Famous Five when I was younger, for some reason I don't think I ever picked up any of the Secret Seven series. In a similair vein I used to love the Hardy boys detective books as well, there was no shortage of them.

The "Secret Seven" series is about a group of child detectives and I think this series was aimed at a younger audience if I remember correctly. "Famous Five" was the series I started reading shortly thereafter and it definitely became a firm favourite for me and really sparked my appetite for adventure, which has never left me! I also loved Enid Blyton's "The Faraway Tree" - do you remember that one? A little later in childhood, it was Roald Dahl's books, as well as the Narnia series, that had me hooked.

That I don’t remember at all, I loved the Narnia books and Roald Dahl

I know it's a simple and probably common answer, but for me, it was the Harry Potter series. It was the series I had read outside of school, and was a longer format than others (like children's books) so I was able to get a much more fulfilling experience than I'd ever had before.
