She wanted to be an author when she grew up but then she had a teacher who pushed her too hard and she gave up on it. Now she occasionally writes business articles but I hope she'll go back to it one day just for fun.Christina Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756342293865115352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3244224993534617084.post-35049811916090855962015-03-26T07:42:08.598-04:002015-03-26T07:42:08.598-04:00I am hoping to re-read Anne of Green Gables, so it...I am hoping to re-read Anne of Green Gables, so it is never too late.

I recently reread the first few books and then bought myself the whole series when Sourcebooks Landmark re-released them with these beautiful new covers. I also read all the Sweet Valley Twins/High books and The Babysitter's Club books, too. Oh what fond memories. Did you ever read Trixie Belden or The Bobbie Twins? Those were some of my other favorites as well as any book by Ruth Chew (she wrote witch books and they are really hard to find now).
