![]() First read when I was around seven or eight, it quite literally took me to another world. As a young child, Enid Blyton’s The Magic Faraway Tree series did just that. ![]() It ensured that, whatever direction my life took, it would always be spent with a book in hand. However, I eventually managed to find a book that perfectly appealed to me. It is because of this that I can emphasise with individuals who struggle to wholly embrace the wonders of the literary world. My relationship with English, words and enjoying books was strained in my early years of primary education. Partially, my reasons for doing this are because I wasn’t a natural reader. There is nothing wrong with looking back into our history and exploring how an appreciation for words and language first developed. ![]() While I am a now proud bookworm, I think it is important to remember where my love for reading began. In order to achieve my yearly Goodreads goal of working through 60 books, I feel an obligation to always be focusing on a new book. ![]()
