It's been quite a year


I am somewhat of a nerd and I own up to that.
So far this year, I have read The Life of Pi and A Thousand Splendid Suns and I just started reading Water For Elephants. Last night I started to read and it was so late, that I only got two chapters into it. But I went to sleep with that blissful feeling of a good book is coming in the next few days. I say days, because I don't linger with books I like. I read them, I eat them like food and I do nothing other than read until I have conquered the book. It is why I can't read or shouldn't read three books that over 300 pages each in one month. Everything else slides to the rear of the importance chain. When I was single, this was no problem. As a mom, wife and employee; this pretty much spells disaster for life around me. You should see the pile of laundry that I had to tackle tonight because I have not folded any laundry since I did it all three days ago. I haven't EVEN started my next book.

Argh.

I loved "Water For Elephants"! So glad you're enjoying too. May I also recommend "Eat, Pray, Love" as your next book? It's right up there with my all time faves.
