The Beginning

I've always been somewhat of a book worm. My favorite day of week in elementary school was library day. The problem I've found as I get older is that I tend to forget what books I have read, and whether I enjoyed them or not. So I thought this blog would be a fun project to review books I've read and hopefully others might find it useful.

For as long as I can remember I've always thought of reading as my favorite past time. For a short period during high school I absolutely despised reading. We were forced to read "the classics" in our English classes and I found them to be well...boring! I know some people will be highly offended by that statement. But I am not claiming to be some literary expert. I took all of ONE literature class in college (and LOVED it!). While I was in school I did mostly text book reading, but during the summers you'd find me at the beach with a stack of books next to my chair. Now that I have finished school I have more time to devote to reading books I enjoy and so I am a constant reader. I do not read for enlightenment or for some higher understanding of life. I read for fun.
