Liahona Whittle asked Jenn Reese:

What type of books did you read growing up?

Jenn Reese Hi Liahona! I read a lot of Newbery Award books when I was growing up, like The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin (still one of my favorites) and The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster. I loved anything with fantasy in it -- especially dragons and unicorns. I enjoyed The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe and the other Narnia books by C.S. Lewis and desperately hoped to find a portal to another world in my own house. (Alas, I did not.) After that, I started reading adult fantasy and science fiction, because there wasn't much YA when I was growing up. (But that's okay -- I get to read it now!)

Thanks so much for the question!

Best,
Jenn
