It's no secret that Tyson is a book worm. :) However, as of late, he's been reading about two books a week! When Tyson and I started dating, I wanted absolutely nothing to do with reading. I didn't know what I liked to read and wasn't interested in figuring it out. But, the more time I spent with Tyson, the more I wanted to find a good book. So...Tyson introduced me to Jodi Picoult (after turning down Harry Potter several times).
I LOVE Jodi Picoult's books! I have 6 books of hers left to read (and one I have no interest in reading).
The only thing I hate is that I find it more and more difficult to get her books from the library. I must not be the only one who loves these books :). So....I jumped on the Twilight saga bandwagon and couldn't put those books down! Well, the first two books I read in a matter of days. Then I got to Eclipse and was less than interested so I took a few weeks off before trying again and then finishing the final one as well.
I then went for a while where I would start a book and couldn't get into it or would get a few chapters in before I was receiving overdue notices in my inbox, so I would return an unread book. Then school started and I just didn't feel like I had time to read, and at night, my eyes would be shut as soon as my head hit the pillow.
Well, I saw (on Facebook I think) that someone was reading a book called The Hunger Games. I thought I would see what it was all about. I checked it out, read about a chapter a night for a few days, and then suddenly I could not put it down! I finished it in about a week. On Sunday, I drug Tyson to the Waterloo library to get a card and the second book, Catching Fire. (It was checked out at the CF library and I just could NOT wait to get it!!) So, 36 hours later, I'm finished with book number 2. Now, one book remains, Mockingjay, and I NEED to go and get it. I'll be making an appearance at the library probably in a few minutes.
So...if you're looking for a good book, I'd suggest any of the above, but right now, The Hunger Games trilogy is a must-read in my eyes! :) Happy reading!
