Middle school, I was into the Chronicles of Narnia series and S.E. Hinton with "Rumble Fish", "That Was Then, This Is Now" and "The Outsiders". I'll still read them every blue moon, lol.
I was never a good reader since I have the attention span of a goldfish. If a book doesn't catch my attention in the first five or so pages, I won't read it and that's a shame.
My dad read the Hobbit to me when i was little.
If you need a book that will catch your attention in the first 5 minutes. Hell the first paragraph.. Check out "The Game of Thrones" book 1 in a Song of Ice and Fire.
