Q: Do you have a favorite series that you read over and over again? Tell us a bit about it and why you keep on revisiting it?
This could be taken in two parts. ☺ During my grade school years, I was positively drawn to
Nancy Drew's world and every summer, I re-read the
books because Nancy's character was teaching me (a young kid) to be self-reliant, calm in the face of danger, observant etc. The older published books also had illustrated pages in them so that always got my imagination to go overdrive and I pictured that I was with Nancy, Bess and George. ☺ Thanks to mom who introduced me to the series and passed the love for the super sleuth's adventures to me too. She still love the books if her eyes weren't a problem.

The next series that I loved going back during my high school and college days was
Star Trek: The Next Generation books series because obviously, the show was a huge fave back then and here, I loved reading characters who are confident and thought solutions to the problems facing them. Some authors were gentle to the readers and didn't pepper the story with techno-babble like this one below which was one of my faves. Unfortunately, like all things, I simply moved on and now, post-college and during this phase we call working 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, I don't know yet. ☺Although I seemed to be building
MCH books and
Heather Graham books. ☺
Nancy Drew is a great series to re-read!

Nancy Drew! When I was younger I was obsessed with those books. I really should see if they're still lying around somewhere.
ReplyDelete@Trish I was in cloud 9 when I reread them. Are you familiar with the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys Super Mystery book series? :D
