I love to read. Check out the books I am reading or have read and see if you like any of them too. Feel free to recommend reads as well. Don't want to read something but want to know if it is worth reading...I can read it for you, or maybe I have already read it, ask me!!

Greetings
So, for my first entry I am just going to say that I am a reader. I love to read. I haven't always loved to read...I think I told my first grade teacher that I HATED to read...and by 4th grade I could read at a 12th grade level and beyond. Often I could read the words but maybe didn't always understand the content or context of what I was reading. I can also read fast...which was something my cousins always thought was really interesting. I have never really timed myself but I read Nights in Rodanthe by Nicholas Sparks Sunday morning...I think I was up at 8:30am and I had it read by 9:30am or so...Of course the fluff fiction I can read the fastest...and I do my best when I can sit uninterrupted and read. Who has that luxury? I feel that if you WANT to read, you can make it happen. I read everything now...before I used to only read fiction, and occasionally the newspaper or magazine articles. I have found that I do like the occasional non-fiction book. My plan is to read things...and talk about them. Also, recap some things I have already read. I would love to have your input as well...and recommendations. I used to have a friend that I would see every so often, she and I would discuss books and she would recommend titles to me, and I to her. It was great! So, if there is something you think I should read...let me know!

Try any of their books, and I'm sure you will enjoy them. Have you ready any good mysteries lately? I'm looking for something new to read.
By the way, I look forward to the blogging.
Thanks,

I am sooo excited you are doing this! I have been doing lots of reading this summer and look for even more good suggestions from you. I am currently reading "Love the One You're With" by Emily Giffin. I LOVE all of her books. Her best are the Something Borrowed and Something Blue two book series. We will see how her latest measures up!
