Feature and Follow is a blog hop hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. The purpose is to meet new people and gain more followers in the book blogging community. If this is your first time here, welcome! You are about to make some new friends and gain new followers. But you have to know, the point of this hop is to follow other blogs also. I follow you, you follow me. 

The general rules are: 
- Follow the Feature and Follow Hosts (Parajunkee and Alison Can Read)
- Follow the Featured Bloggers
- Put your Blog name and URL in the Linky thing. You can also grab the code if you would like to insert it into your posts. 
-Grab the button up there and place it in a post. This post is for people to say hi and that they are now following you in your comments. 
-Follow, Follow, Follow as many as you can. The whole point is to make new friends and find new blogs. Don't just follow, comment and say hi in the post! Another blogger might not know you are a new follower if you don't say 'hi'
-If someone comments and says they are following you, please follow back! 

This week's question: 

If you could only have ONE - one book - for the rest of your life.. don't cheat... what would it be? 

Oh wow... This is such a hard question to answer! The first book that came to mind was Handle With Care by Jodi Picoult.

      I love it too (: The more I think about it, the more I'm not sure how many times I could reread it, but I'm ok with that! If it's all that were available to me, I would read it again and again just to read something!

      Thanks for stopping by!

      I just really love the way she writes her books, and I think there is such a powerful story in this one. There are so many other books I could choose, but this is the first that came to mind and it deals with such a sensitive issue, like most of her books do. (:

      She writes about what I think are very controversial topics, like suicide, school shootings, aborting a baby, etc. You can definitely tell she does her research before writing! Love all of her work.

      She really is great. And what I love most is that she takes pretty controversial issues, or issues that people just don't want to talk about, and brings them to life.
