Lately I have been reading one of the books that I have always read when I had gotten the chance, Moby Dick by Herman Melville. I would not say that Captain Ahab is my favorite character but there is a characteristic that he has that I admire. After getting his leg bitten off by the great white whale and he wanted revenge by killing him. But coming out of that revenge he had the desire to get what he wanted and he kept at it and never gave up. All in all, Moby Dick is an irresistible book and I just can not seem to get enough of it. Another fact about my love for the book is that is my childhood favorite because my Mom used to read it to me and my sisters. I had also seen the Hallmark movie with Patrick Stewart as Captain Ahab and I used to watch that movie alot as well. In general, Moby Dick is a book that I could read over and over again and just never get enough.
