i would love to read like it's my job. a non-stop extravaganza, wouldn't that be lovely? sadly, that isn't the case. i find myself not reading enough. i want to. i love getting so very lost in books; being transported into people's lives, learning from them, adventuring with them, feeling for them, and the sense of zeal i get that every single person i know must read the book. books are so special.
and when i do find myself reading it usually isn't from cover to cover. i start a book and then i get stalled by, well, life. it's rare for me to plow through books but when it happens i am so. very. happy. this was the case when i was recently reading lisa genova's first two books, still alice and left neglected and i would highly recommend both. i am looking forward to her third novel - out in january 2014 - love, anthony.
there are plenty of books that i have been wanting to read and with my new kobo (a birthday gift from stefan) i can't wait to download some. but there's one thing - i wish i had more time for is reading. along with yoga, it is at the top of my list of happy makers and yet it (and yoga) fall by the wayside. 'to read' is always on my to-do-list.
here's what's on my list of books to read right now and when i look at my list i feel panicked that there's not enough time to read them all.
so, here's to committing to read more often, finding the time, and delving into this favourite activity of mine. how often do you get to read?
the following favourite books are ones i would highly recommend and see
this post, if you like, for others i have recommended.
