Don't take me for saying that I now dislike writing, because believe me that is never happening. But my point is, I miss reading. I remember long nights where I would read for hours, rushing to finish school to read. I would read late into the night only to sleep a few hours, waking early to read even more. Honestly, how did I finish the 5th harry potter (longest one) in only a week? I will never know.

I joined up with the Literary Ladies Discussion Society which will perhaps get me reading more often. But more than that, I have reading scheduled into my day, maybe this will get me reading more. Also, I'm the sort of person who if I don't like a book, I won't finish it. It's awful, but it's true. Any suggestions as to good books?
So here's to reading. and hopefully getting to where I was at. or at least close.

Reading and writing go hand and hand. When I read, I want to write. When I write, I want to read.
ReplyDeleteA good book? The Blue Castle, if you haven't read it. It's lovely.
You sound just like me :)
ReplyDeleteyou and your writing = me and my reading addiction. the cold months are the best for curling up with a book & a cup of tea on a rainy day.
ReplyDeleteUm I'm a HUGE reader but I guess good books depend on your level of reading and what you feel like reading. I loved the Percy Jackson books, I was into horses not long ago and I read lots of great horse series' like Canterwood Crest, Winnie the Horse Gentler, Heartland, if you are looking for a difficult but great historical fiction read A Parcel of Patterns is an amazing book, I love historical fiction, the Dear America books were always great, a short but sweet book was Scarlett (I've been wanting to read that again), a really good series was Sisters of the Quilt if you like an awesome amish series, the Uglies series was a great sci-fi book, so as u can see I read a lot. All those book should last u awhile, they're all AWESOME books :)
ReplyDeleteAnything Agatha Christie please. And The Mysterious Benedict Society series. Oh, and the Penderwicks. Heist Society. The Help. Hunger Games.
ReplyDeleteI really recommend Shannon Hale's books. One of my favorites is The Goose Girl. They are absolutely beautiful. You should check them out, I think you'd like them!
ReplyDeleteAlso, you can never go wrong with classics - have you read the Anne series by L. M. Montgomery?
By the way: You should check out goodreads.com. It rocks, and it's a good way to hear about new books and keep track of the books you're reading. ;)
Ha ha finished the 5th Harry Potter in a day cause I was sick! Lol I love those books!
ReplyDeletesounds like me. I used to read tons but then it kinda stopped, now I'm writing like an insane person. I switch back & forth though.
ReplyDeletethe left behind books are awesome...you should try those. the first three books aren't as exciting but once you hit the middle of the series, it's oh-so-awesome. so are the red rock mysteries. I'm reading those for the 101th time.
actually the 4th time, but you get the point.
