Still reading…..

Its been a crazy few weeks but I’m still working on my goal of reading as many books as I can this year. After I read that not so riveting free book on kindle I started reading another Nicholas Sparks book. I know, I know its time to move on and try other authors but I thought, well I like how he writes and there are several books I haven’t read yet that he has written. It has given me a starting point and after all I did get inspired to read as many books as I can by Nicholas Sparks in the first place. After reading Dear John and thinking the book was fantastic (except for its horribly sad ending) I went on to read, The Last Song, True Believer and At First Sight. All excellent but very emotional reading. I don’t know how Nicholas Sparks does it but he takes these characters and truly makes them come to life and in the end you are blubbering over a fictitious character in a story you swear has to been herald from some truth somewhere. I mean this stuff can’t be made up, but I suppose all fictional stories about life come from some truth don’t they.
For now though I am on to something new, and totally expanding my range of reading. One thing I wanted to do was to read books I would never see myself reading. Maybe Learn something in the process. So whats the book I’m reading. Well I had never heard of it before Katherine Spano and had no idea it was a movie, even though my six year old knew it was a movie and even knew the main characters name! I have never read a book like this and so far although not quite where I can’t put it down it seems to be an interesting read. Okay, okay, the name of the book is “Lightening Thief.” Its one in a series of books and hopefully soon I will be able to tell you I have completed the book!

Ha! This has made my day! I was going to suggest it as our next book but didn’t know if it was too juvenile! I hope you find as much charm in it as I did. The series gets better as you read them. Love you!
