Super 6 Books I Can't Wait to Read with My Kids 

*In no particular order
I obviously don't want to be Mischa Barton or her character in The O.C. I do, however, want to a character she played in a Disney channel movie: Vicky Austin from Madeleine L'Engle's A Ring of Endless Light. Yes, Vicky is in the whole Meet The Austins series, but this book just always stood out to me as one of my favorite Madeleine L'Engle books. I have always loved dolphins, and I definitely understood the close relationship between a girl and her grandfather. Plus, there were two handsome guys fighting over her, a spoiled rich boy and a aspiring marine biologist.



Yes, another Disney interpretation of a Madeleine L'Engle book: Meg Murray from A Wrinkle in Time and the Time Quartet series. She was strong and smart, even though she never saw it. She was one of the only people who understood and protected her quirky baby bother, Charles Wallace. And she fought her fears to find her father.

Elizabeth Bennet; I love Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice, and the wonderful Mr. Fiztwilliam Darcy.

Fleur Delacour; because I wanted to marry Bill Weasley - he really is my favorite one.



Soteria Kafieri; Because Acheron is my ultimate favorite hero in Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark-Hunters series.



Nancy Drew; I read as many of these book as I could get my hands on as a child. Nancy was always so resourceful and smart, but still a nice person who always cared for everyone.

Super 6 Books I Can't Wait to Read with My Kids 

*In no particular order
  How great did you find this book as a kid? Now that there are two movies based on it, I am even more certain that I want to read it to my own children someday.



It's the story of a fruit bat that gets separated from her mother and ends up living with a nest full of baby birds and their mother. I remember playing the computer game of this book and loving it. It is such a sweet story.

I love dinosaurs, and I love poetry.


When I was a little girl, this song and accompanying book meant so much to me and my sisters. I remember us getting the book for my father on year when we were really young. It's a lovely story from a dad to his little girl and the little girl back to her dad. It'll bring tears to your eyes.


The Little Mermaid is my favorite Disney movie, and it's much easier to read than the original Hans Christian Anderson version. I love Ariel as a character, and I want my children to love the movie and book as much as I do.


I love Greek mythology. This book shortens, simplifies, and cleans up some of the popular tales of Greek mythology and makes them easy for children to understand. It's a great book.

Super 6 Favorite Favorite Supernatural Creatures

*In no particular order

Chimera. A lion with the head of a goat arising from its back, and a tail that ended in a snake's head. A child of Echidna, the mother of all monsters, and Typhon.

Vampire. Enough said.

Were-tiger; So much cooler than werewoves.

Pegasus. I love how majestic and beautiful they are.

Werewolves; I love them too.

Dragons; I love them in every shape and size. They are just wonderful, magical creatures that just take my breath away. Don't you wish they were real? *sigh*

Super 6 Favorite Book Couples

Elizabeth Bennet & Fitzwilliam Darcy; They have just the ultimate love story. I love the way they came together.

Jack Twist & Ennis Del Mar from Annie Proulx's short story, "Brokeback Mountain." While it is not everyone's cup of tea, the love between these two men in the story was tangible and raw and real. They had amazing chemistry, but they knew that other people wouldn't accept their love.

Cecelia Ahern's P.S. I Love You was one of the sweetest, most heartbreaking books I have ever read. While the I like the movie interpretation, the movie did very little justice to this story. My heart broke with her on every page, and I fell in love with the Jerry she knew and loved too.

Kerrelyn Sparks's How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire's Shanna Whelan and Roman Draganesti; This book was my first paranormal romance novel, and I fell in love with it as soon as I got a few pages into it. They are such an unusual couple that it was just perfect for me.

Sherrilyn Kenyon's Acheron's Acheron and Soteria; Acheron was in every Dark Hunter book, so I was ecstatic when he finally got his own chance at love. He was definitely a character that was not bound to find love easily. But when he did find love, WHOA, it was great.

Alyssa Day's Heart of Atlantis's Alaric and Quinn; the cold, calculating, and powerful high priest of Atlantis and Quinn, the leader of the rebels. Both are too strong and stubborn to admit their feelings for each other. And both are constantly doing what they think is right even if the other doesn't like it. It's a wonderful, powerful relationship.
