Welcome to the Book Nook! The weekly thread for all book nerds on The Avocado. This is the place to talk about books you’re currently reading, discuss genres, ask for recommendations, and post serious literary criticism.

This week’s prompt: What were your favorite books in elementary school? For our purposes, elementary school is first through sixth grades, or roughly between the ages of 6-11. Thanks to Steve Splendiferous for the idea!

Bonus prompt! Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was born on this day in 1859. Let us know how you feel about Sherlock Holmes and Sir Arthur’s other works.

Ideas for prompts are always welcome!

Posting pictures is fine as long as they are book related, but I would like this thread to continue to be a NO GIF/YouTube/social media embed zone as much as possible. Thanks, and happy commenting!
