Ang's Top Five Comfort Reads

Once upon a time I had a little corner on the internet in which I reviewed/shared books. Always five books. Always short reviews. Always with a theme. I love books. And I miss sharing/talking about the books I heart plus hearing what other people like too. So I've decided it's time to get back to my old bookish ways. At least once a month I'll be sharing a list of five books based around a theme.

So without further-ado, I give you, my top five comfort reads (aka books I could read over and over and over again and never get tired of).

The Girl Who Chased the Moon by Sarah Addison Allen

goodreads

Sarah Addison Allen has quickly become
a yearly must reread for yours truly.
And while I adore all her novels
The Girl Who Chased the Moon is the first book
I read of hers. It's got a very special place in my heart.

Years by LaVyrle Spencer
goodreads

Many a late nights have been spent rereading Spencer's novels.
I've long been a fan. Since middle school, in fact.
Years is my go-to.
I love the setting, the characters,
and the simplicity of the story.

The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C. S. Lewis
goodreads

There's something about this series that gets me
in the feels every. damn. time.
I will never ever be too old for a good children's book series.
Never. Ever.

Mother Road by Dorothy Garlock
goodreads

Dorothy Garlock is not just a go-to comfort read for me.
She's also one of my author role models.
I was oh-so-very sad to hear about her passing.
I might've hugged a few of her books when I read the news.
Tears were involved. She will be greatly missed.

Anne of Green Gables by L. M. Montgomery
goodreads

And last, but never least, Anne Girl.
What is there to say that hasn't been said already?
She's smart and silly.
Dramatic and thoughtful.
She's loyal and loving and
everything I hope to be when I grow up.
Anne's story is a moving, heartfelt tale about
finding your place in this great big world.
Something I think we can all relate to.

Which books or authors do you turn to when you want to
wrap yourself up in an old familiar story?
Or is re-reading not your thing?
Sharing is caring, my friends.
