I used to read like that as a kid. But now, I hardly pick up a book. Reading makes me sleepy!

I wish I had back a few years ago when I could, and would, read 1000 page novels in 2 days. Now-a-days though the list would be pathetic. Though at least I don't read trash :P

I should try that. With the new year approaching, maybe I will.

I'll read pretty much everything. Historical fiction, "chick books", classics, mysteries... my husband even got me started on the World of Warcraft books. You have to read "trashy" stuff every now and then. After all, I don't know about you, but I read mostly to escape from the real world.

Sometimes you need that. I was a lit major in college and the whole year after I graduated I read trash. I called it a battery recharge!

I didn't read as much this year as I usually do. I had some eye problems earlier in the year that made it difficult and I can rarely concentrate with books on tape.

Maybe recording what books I read will get me back on track.
