I have come to the realization, if the book does not catch my interest after a few weeks, then it is OK if it never gets read! Giving myself that permission has made a huge difference in my reading :)Gingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14722162429142110718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328228070357271563.post-20582606396183879452012-05-13T12:41:28.863+01:002012-05-13T12:41:28.863+01:00I'm an avid reader---always have been.

I always loved the tactile experience of books and I love owning books. But my husband surprised me with a Kindle for Christmas (just the little cheapest one) and I love it!

I'm always reading a couple of books--usually a memoir or a novel and a piece of non-fiction. Right now it's Imagine: How Creativity Works, and Unless It Moves the Human Heart: the Craft and Art of Writing. I'm loving both of them.

I then went to the book store last night and picked up "Alone in the Classroom" by Elizabeth Hay, a Canadian author who won our Canadian Giller prize a few years back for another novel. I love reading books set in Canada. Anyway, I'm only on page 28 but it is great already!Jennifer Shawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05489870773549675036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328228070357271563.post-21389838644137617242012-05-10T14:57:11.573+01:002012-05-10T14:57:11.573+01:00I'm still working on my Spring Reading list - ...I'm still working on my Spring Reading list - and half the time if my family were to snap me reading, I might have already fallen asleep.
