John Cooper is the lead singer and bassist for the popular Christian rock group, Skillet. Skillet is a Grammy-nominated band originally from Tennessee. Skillet's nine studio albums span from their debut in 1996 to Unleashed in 2016. Skillet's hits include  "Hero," "Awake and Alive," and my favorite, "Feel Invincible."
Cooper is also the lead singer of a new metal band called "Fight the Fury." I was fortunate enough to attend the album release party for Fight the Fury last weekend and also witness their first live performance! John was interviewed prior to the performance by 95.1 WIIL radio station. In the interview, John mentioned his favorite book.

What is John Cooper's favorite book?

At the release party, a WIILRock DJ mentioned that she heard that John owned a lifesize Frankenstein. John confirmed that and that Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" is his favorite book that he had ever read.
See the whole interview and Fight the Fury's performance at the end of this post!
