The 30-Day Book Meme, Day 15: Your "Comfort" Book.
Do you have one? Just one? If you had to pick one Comfort Book, what would it be?
I think I'm going to have to say So Big by Edna Ferber because (a) it's a book I've read more than once, and (b) it's a book I think about frequently, and (c) every time I think about it or read it, I think about my mother.
Not because she resembles any of the characters in the book, but because this is one of the books she helped me pick out on my very first grown up trip to the library all those years ago. Which gives this book a special place in my heart.
I'd tack on Edna Ferber's Giant for the same reasons. Good memories. The comfort of Mom on one of our best days together.
You can't get much better than that.
So what about you? What's your favorite comfort book? I'd love to hear what's tops on your own list.
