Day Four - My favorite book

Okay well this is a really hard one for me.... in fact I don't think I can answer this question. I love books and reread them again and again, but one favorite book... nope just can't do it. I am okay with books that make me cry, as long as there is a happy ending to the book. I can't do a book that ends badly - just makes me mad. I read books to escape so I expect to have some sort of happy ending with the characters, even if the getting there is emotional.

So, I am going to just have to go with my favorite author instead of one book. First let me say that I have an obsession of sorts when I buy books. I am not sure when it started, but I have to own all of the books by an author once I start to collect them. So I had to limit myself to certain authors because it can become very expensive. And Then... I bought a Kindle. I love my Kindle. I still by actual books by my favorite author, but the electronic aspect of it lets me buy books from multiple authors without feeling the need to buy all the books written by each author. LOVE IT!

Okay, so back on topic (sort of) my favorite author is Nora Robers (as well as her writing as JD Robb). I have noticed with her books that she weaves in characters from one story into other stories - even when they aren't connected (like a trilogy). She can have a character in one book who sings, and then later in another book a different character is listening to that one singing a song while they are driving in the car. I love that!
