details to describe the
Memory

My first distinct memory of reading was in Middle School. I never really got into reading in elementary because I was not interested in the books that the teachers were hand feeding us, but when I got my first library card in 7th grade and I finally got to choose my own books, things changed for me.

One of the first books I read was leisurely was called Maximum Ride by James Patterson. I absolutely loved the book, it was paperback and tucked away in a corner all the way in the back of the children's section. It was like finding a diamond in the rough. Or maybe it was just because the books were organized by last name.

Anyways when I first opened the book and started reading, I noticed that Patterson's narration style was in first person. I felt like I was a part of the story in the ways that he would break the fourth wall and speak to his readers through the characters. It was an incredible experience for me and I got so lost in the book that i had read a third of the way through before  realized that I had spent almost an hour in the library.
