Books, Books, Books
So, I read.... A lot. Some weeks I go through one or two books without even trying. There are very few that I buy for myself because I don't see a reason to buy a book that I am only going to read one time. I do have a collection of books that I have read and read again because they are great books and I want to have them to go back to and read whenever I want to. I own all of the Harry Potter books, the Twilight series, most of Nicholas Sparks books, and a small collection of other books that I love to read.
I have a very simple philosophy about reading. It gives me a window into a world that otherwise I never would have entered. It opens up my imagination and my mind to the things that I dream about. I love a good book, some comfortable clothes and a quiet soft place to sit and read. I read at least once a day for a hour or so but some days I have been known to hide away and read the whole day away. I love to read to little kids, to share that world with them and they love to hear stories.
So, if you need a good book I am sure that I could recommend one to you, if you have read something good share it with me I am always looking for the next book to read or to add to my shelf. And if you have a book shelf that you are not using let me know I could put it to use.

If only you had told me you needed a bookshelf a few days ago! but that pod has left and the bookshelf wasn't in it. Maybe we can get Jerry to build you one! See you soon, I am so excited!!!!!
Have you ever heard of a little-known book named "Twilight?" You should give it a try.
OK, ok so you didn't get my joke...I was just trying to drive home how much I really do love Twilight. What? It was just confusing instead? So sorry.
Abbz. What a great way to spend some of your extra time! Have you read Gone with the Wind or the Count of Monte Cristo??? Those are two of my faves...
I love reading too. It's a nice break from reality, huh! You should make a list of your favorite books so I can know what's good. I just read a book called "A Red Bird Christmas" by Fannie Flagg...it was a sweet one. :)
"Gone with the Wind" is pretty good. I finished that one not too long ago. I also really like "The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle", "The Giver", "The Witch of Blackbird Pond", "Christy", and if you don't mind a little language, but an awesome book, "My Sister's Keeper". Also, "The Memory Keepers Daughter" is really good also. I love reading and have a 'to read' list that is about 60 books long. It's crazy! Also "Anne of Green Gables" and the books that come after that one are all really good too.
