I have to be honest and say I did not read any required books for high school-not a single one. I was never an avid reader and never found literature to be interesting. During my senior year, I picked up Blue Like Jazz and finished it in two days. I did not put it down except to sleep (yes I ate with BLJ in hand). After that, not only did I read everything else Don wrote, but a multitude of other books of all shapes and sizes.

I have to give Don credit for getting me back into reading. As a senior in college now (and a Journalism major), I aspire to be a writer much like Don has become: a true storyteller and an inspiration to people. I have missed reading books by Don, although his blog and constant twittering have sufficed for now. I would appreciate it tremendously to have a copy of A Million Miles!!
