I have hated almost every book I've read thus far. Actually I take that back, hate is a strong word. I find myself so busy lately though with my work, and home life that reading books outside of my "comfort zone" becomes difficult. I feel that a lot of the books I have thus far read, really deserve another chance in the Summer for when my life gradually slows down again. I know a lot of people have a hard time changing, and I'm a liar if I said I wasn't one of them - hell I'm probably the least likely to change my habits. Therefore expecting me to be sold on new book genres is a pretty tough sell, and even though this is considered a young adult book I absolutely love it. So welcome to the world of Alagaësia folks!
Eragon
By
Christopher Paolini
Fifteen-year-old Eragon believes that he is merely a poor farm boy—until his destiny as a Dragon Rider is revealed. Gifted with only an ancient sword, a loyal dragon, and sage advice from an old storyteller, Eragon is soon swept into a dangerous tapestry of magic, glory, and power. Now his choices could save—or destroy—the Empire.
I hope you all will indulge me with a fun read, and honestly sometimes going back to books we love help us remember why we adore reading in the first place. If Eragon doesn't seem interesting to you, then don't worry - just check on in for the food!
