I read a lot of books, I mean A LOT. I have one section of my entertainment stand packed with books with hardly a space in between. Give me a school book, not so much, but on my own tons of them. I recently got the latest TV Guide at work (yep we get it free) and was sifting through it when one those lovely thick paper adverts caught my eye. It had a big picture of Patricia Cornwell’s new book “Predator” in lime green on the front with “Get this book free”. That caught me, I mean that book doesn’t even come out until October 25th. It’s just like one of those CD clubs where you buy 7 for 99 cents, etc. Yep it’s a book club, 5 for 99 cents and just buy 4 more within 2 years. Heck I’d buy those within a month as fast as I read books. I think I’m going to join it. Just have to wait until I get home to make sure I don’t pick a book that I already own. I should really make a catalog of what I have so I don’t have to keep pulling them out to check.

I love to read, but between work and class, I never have the spare time anymore. I have several bookcases filled with books too. I love to be surrounded by good books.
I don’t really have all that much time to read either but during my lunch hour at work is where I get it done and can usually finish off a book within a week if not sooner. I’ll be back in classes in the spring and then my lunch will mostly likely consist of my school work which will leave me hardly anytime at all of pleasant reading :/
