Do you have siblings? Do they like to read?
I have two younger brothers. The middle one (a tatted-up, hopeful musician) is to me like night is to the day, but the youngest one (a sophomore in high school), I've noticed, is more like me all the time. I don't think I've ever seen my musician brother even pick up a book; he's more likely to pick up a guitar and a few beers. On the other hand, my younger bro has been introduced recently to books he likes like World War Z and it's companion, The Zombie Survival Guide ~ I even caught him reading the first chapter of my copy of Graceling. Right now, being in high school, I think he's more focused on school and his girlfriend, but I hope he picks it up and finds more books he likes.
Happy Reading Everyone :)

It's been many years since I lived with or even near my siblings, but here's MY THURSDAY MEMES POST
ReplyDeleteWell we can't all like the same things or we would turn into zombies. I'm glad you and one of your siblings like to read.
ReplyDeleteThis is true :)
DeleteMy siblings and I are a mixed bag too.
ReplyDeleteSeems like there are a lot of brothers out there that don't read books lol. Here's my BTT
ReplyDeleteMy brother doesn't read much either.

Haha, your post made me laugh. And I forgot, my brother did like World War Z too. I think there just aren't that many cool books for younger boys, or at least I'm having a hard time finding some for my brother.
ReplyDeleteI don't think there are either.. Young Adult novels seem to focus on the stories of young, heroic women.. at least there are books like World War Z.. I mean, what young guy doesn't like the grotesqueness of zombies?
