I love, love, love authors who love books and write about their love of books. I especially love when they write about what first lead them to enjoy books and then share the books that have special meaning to them. Ann Hood’s memoir MORNINGSTAR: GROWING UP WITH BOOKS fits this to a tee. In her new book, she describes how, as a young girl, growing up in a small town in Rhode Island, with parents and grandparents who were not educated, and who did not have an appreciation of books, she had to fight to save her money to purchase books at every chance she could. Her town was so small that it took some time before they even had a library. Her school did not have one either. Fortunately, her cousin enjoyed them as much as she did and together they traded books from the Nancy Drew collection and other favorites.At a very young age, one of her teachers noticed that she was reading a pretty hefty book in class, when she was called upon, and that teacher noticed her love of reading. She promptly told Ann that she was to read every book they had at school and knew that Ann was reading far beyond her age level. While Ann’s parents never stopped her from reading, they certainly didn't understand it.Reading was what made her the writer she is today. Not only did reading take her to a place of wonder, but she honed her skills as a writer.Mesmerized by one of the first books that got her hooked, LITTLE WOMEN, which she was rarely without as a young girl, one day, Ann told her mother: “I’m going to call you Marmie.” Her mother, whom she called no-nonsense replied “What? No. No, you’re not.” There are many funny moments in the book like this that she recalls, all relating back to her book memories. They never seemed to get her down or keep her from reading what she liked or from deflating her dreams of as she referred to as “wanting to live inside a book.”Ann has given back two-fold with her beautiful books. And, this sweet memoir
