Day Twenty three

A picture of your favorite book


Read it... I promise. Such a great lesson about being true to yourself, not just pleasing others.

So glad the text left a lasting impression. His experience is so universal.

I think i read this book in either jr high or high school. i do not remember it at all. obviously it did not leave a good enough impression on me. but i dont remember hating it, so all is well.

Jacie, I read Invisible Man in ^Mr. Gesler's^ class in high school, and even 5 years later, no other book has taken it's place as my favorite. You should read it again.

I've never read this book! I will add it to my list!

One of the classics I hope to read in the near future. Being your favorite, it may have been bumped up on my list.
