Systematic Student + Memory Monday

This Monday, I don't have an actual memory for you... Yet. I'll start that up next week. This post is designed as a reference point, both for me and for you, my lovely readers. I will use this post to explain and explore my ideas and my reasoning for this themed post, and as a place for you to comment with any suggestions, criticisms, or words of encouragement.
So, what I envision is a post each Monday (or every other Monday?) that talks a little bit about those beloved childhood favorites. You know the books I mean, right? Those books that you haven't read since you were 8, but that you know are just the absolute best book ever written, but you are seriously afraid to reread them, because they probably won't live up to your memories?! I have a lot of those. I want to share how I felt about them, but I remember more about how I felt reading them than I remember what they are actually about. So, I want to use this weekly(ish) post to talk about those books, with the emphasis being on the memories they created.
I'll talk about how I felt reading those books, which scenes still stick out to me now, years later, how I felt going back for a reread (if I did) and a bit about how I think the book would hold up to memory now.
But, since I'm talking about memories here, I will also talk about books that broadened my idea of what it is to read, authors that were influential to my life, books I didn't like so much, and books that I read when I was older — but still have strong memories associated with them.
I'd also love to see other people take part in this idea, whether it becomes something you do regularly or not. I love hearing about those books people read that changed their life or that evoke strong memories and feelings. I'd love to hear what other people have to share. So, if you do write up a Memory Monday — esq post, I'd love to hear about it! Send me a link in the comments, and I'll rush right over and check out what will be (I'm completely sure) wonderful post. I would, of course, like a small shout out as well, just as I gave one to my lovely sister (who btw is a great seamstress, and will sometimes do custom sewing jobs if you are looking for something... (email me, and I'll get you in touch with her.:) ) ahem)
Anyway, I'd love to hear from you! Your thoughts and all that jazzy good stuff. Tune in Next Week for an actual Memory Monday, complete with books and everything!
