That's amazing! My sister reads like you. Not me although I do enjoy reading. How many did you read in 2011?
Any secrets to finding the time?

[cissy]

I read 46 in 2011 but I didn't start until about April that year.

To find the time, ignore your kids! Ok not really but I always have my books with me, I read before bed, while I am making dinner, waiting to pick kids up from school, sometimes you will even catch me walking around the store following the husband and reading my books.

That's impressive!! One of my goals this year is to read more and watch TV less. I'll have to check out some of the books on your list.

[cissy]

No need to watch less TV, I didn't.

If you are searching for books to read go with, Delirium and Pademonium (lauren oliver, the 3rd book comes out in April I think it is) The Hunt (andrew Fukuda, 2nd book The Prey comes out on the 29th). The Iron Fey Series reminds me of Lord of the Rings with all the activity that goes on (Iron Knight book I read the others in the previous year). Born at Midnight, Awake at Dawn, taken at Dusk, Whispers at Moon Rise, more chatty of a book, my neighbor has read them all in about 2 weeks and we are waiting on the last book. Awaken and Middle Ground is set in the future where everything is digital and some trying to break out of the digital world.

I can not say that any of those books are bad, I enjoyed them all. I can tell you more about them if they sound interesting. But I liked them all, none of them took me over a few days to read, if not read the within 24 hours.

Wait 78 books thanks to a friend she reminded me I also read Hana, it is a short book between Delerium and Pandemonium.

Wow Cissy! That is super awesome!

I have been in a reading slump that I kinda wish I could get out of. I think with all my headaches and the fact that I feel like my eyes aren't focusing properly has detered me from trying to read. I hope I can get something figured out this year because I kinda miss it.

[cissy]

When was the last time you had your eyes checked? It made a big difference for me. I used to have a lot of headaches and my eyes hurt all the time. I now have glasses for reading, computer and anytime my eyes feel like they need it. it has helped wonders, I am also using eye drops because it is helping. I never had my eyes checked till 2 months ago but since then I have had 1 headache.

Congrats Cissy, that's quite an accomplishment!

[doeeyedgirl]

That's awesome!! I wish I would have kept track of what I read last year. Although I don't think it's anywhere near that many!

I may have to check out a few on your list. The titles intrigue me.

[ReneeW]

Wow, good for you! Thanks for posting them because it's always fun to get some ideas for new books to check out at the library when my current stash is gone.

[jrose]
