Again better late then never... I apologize.
American Girl Series : I struggled with reading as kid. But the American Girl series helped me find a connection that ultimately turned into a love for reading. These books were not only a good read they introduced problem solving and controversies. This was the first series that I had ever read, I still have most of the book sitting in my bookshelf to day.
Sherlock Holmes : Who doesn't love a good intrigue? I personally love stories with Sherlock because things are never what they seem to be. A good life lesson for us all . Most are short stories witch make them convenient for anyone avid reader or not.
Harry Potter Series : I like multiple book series because you get a chance to fall in love with some character and hate others. With Harry Potter you root for the underdog along with his group of misfit friends. Its very much a book you can submerse yourself in getting lost for hours.
