For Valentine's Day, we released our  list of 125 Books We Love Reading—but we couldn't make it all about us! That's why we asked you to share the book (or books!) that inspired you to #LoveReading. You didn't disappoint. From unearthing favorite childhood memories to looming lists of the best books you've ever read, here are some of our favorite responses!

Trying to think what book actually made me #LoveReading. I don't ever remember NOT loving reading, but The Voyage of the Dawn Treader took it to a new level. For the first time I wanted to live inside a book. I imagined growing up to write a book that felt as magical as VODT did. pic.twitter.com/dzTD4RFThs

At 13, I read Raymond Chandler's The Big Sleep. It was the first American book I read. After Chandler, I moved on to Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Steinbeck and on & on. These American writers introduced me to the beautiful, private world of reading. Happy 125th, @NYPL. #LoveReading pic.twitter.com/zu7nzJtIS2

When I was about eight, my dad and I were living in different places so he recorded himself reading all of The Lord of the Rings onto cassette tapes and mailed them to me. Not my first book, but the memory really cemented my love of reading. Happy 125th, @NYPL! #LoveReading pic.twitter.com/jE3SA9LW0z

What made me #LoveReading was the very first book I figured out how to read on my own: pic.twitter.com/ZU1FE1l8Qy

Do you remember the first book you read by yourself? For this Twitter user, the satisfaction of finishing Oscar the Grouch's Alphabet of Trash made them a lifelong reader!

The Chronicles were some the first books to make me #LoveReading, but if I had to boil it down to one book, it'd be Hatchet. I spent most of my time in the woods at that point in life, so it was a perfect fit. I read it a dozen or so times & prac apped everything in it. https://t.co/DdCLVzuenZ pic.twitter.com/DPEuH0s5aX

Sometimes you revisit the book that made you #LoveReading over and over again, like this reader did with Gary Paulsen's Hatchet.

The book that made me #LoveReading is Hamlet. I read it for the first time as a graphic novel when I was 8 years old. The rest is history @nypl https://t.co/OL0qtFAA5q

— Saltamontes (@Eri_D) February 14, 2020

All forms of books are important! This reader got their start with a graphic novel of Shakespeare's Hamlet.

Anne of Green Gables and the Blossom Culp series by Richard Peck opened up such big worlds for me as a kid. Made me feel like it was okay to be a smart, talkative, opinionated and adventurous. #LoveReading https://t.co/ckbfXFxEPC
