It’s finally Day Ten of the Ten Day Book Challenge! I can’t believe I made it. It’s been a lot of fun walking down memory lane and visiting some of my favorite books from the past. A huge thank you goes out to my friend and fellow author Rami Ungar for inviting me to participate in this challenge.

Here is how the challenge works:

• Thank whoever nominated you with big, bold print. If they have a blog, link to the post where you got tagged there.
• Explain the rules.
• Post the cover of a book that was influential on you or that you love dearly.
• Explain why.
• Tag someone else to do the challenge, and let them know they’ve been tagged.

Pure Trash is a story I read and reviewed back in 2013. I first ran across the author Bette A. Stevens through blogging here on WordPress. I’ve read a couple of her books, but Pure Trash has stayed with me in such a strong way that I couldn’t NOT include it in this challenge. I’ve found myself thinking about this book from time to time over the years since I’ve read it. It resonated with me because I could feel what these characters were feeling in my soul. The author knows how to capture emotion in a way that is truly magical. I highly recommend it.

If you’d like to participate in the Ten Day Book Challenge so you can share your thoughts about books you’ve loved, consider yourself tagged. Leave me a comment with a link to your post so I can stop by for a visit!
