This was a great book for anyone that is interested in what authors read or want to add to their list of books to read. Each writer writes a short piece on a book that chaged their life and why. I found it very interesting that most of the books they chose were ones that they read when they were between 13-16 years of age. It was also nice that each piece was only a few pages long - very easy to read for a mother with a 9 year old!!
