Booking Through Thursday is a weekly bookish meme where participants are asked a series of questions about their reading habits. To join this or future Booking Through Thursdays Click Here . This Week BTT Asks: If you could magically reset things so that you had the chance to read a favorite book/series again for the first time … which would you choose? And why? And then, since tastes change … Do you think it would have the same affect on you, reading it now, as it did when you read it the first time? Would you love it just as much? Would you risk it?

I watched the first two movies before starting the series and I definitely feel that shaped how I imagined the characters. Richard Ha...

The only road out of town is engulfed by an impassable dust storm, and escape is impossible.... Until Lauren decides nothi...
