| I read everyone. I'll give anyone a chance, but there's only a select few who are my favorites. |

Hi Cale,
That's pretty much how I feel. Right now, I am on a reading frenzy. I'm trying to read as many new (to me) authors that I can find. I have to say 1 or 2 are becoming a favorite.

I don't know how to answer this one. I once would read just about anything and several books at a time. But not anymore. But I would like to be able to do that again. I just don't have the patience anymore to sit and read all the time. But maybe someday I will again. I have lots of books here waiting for me to read but I don't feel like reading them. I don't know why this is. It was never a problem for me to read and I always enjoyed it. But something has changed in my brain. I even quit watching my soap operas and that is not me. Just one day, I couldn't deal with watching them anymore. It was only two but I quit watching them about 5 months ago and haven't missed them at all.

| I'll read anything even the bus timetable!! I've Just finished David Mitchell Cloud Atlas. It wasn't what I would normally pick up but it had me hooked a really good interwoven story. Also just finished Fried green tomatoes Franny Flag that was a good 'quick' read. Just bought The Blade Itself and Before they Are Hanged by Joe Abercrombie. |
