I keep trying to pick up some books I think will keep my interest, but I only get about halfway through :( Maybe I'll try this one out. :)EdenGalleryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04859904898285934630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-64051353052682906752012-08-30T13:29:06.048+02:002012-08-30T13:29:06.048+02:00I'm a super fast reader too, June!

That's why sometimes I find myself reading and finishing books and series that I don't particularly love, just to know what happens!<br /><br />I'd love to chat about this book with you! So far no one around me has read it, so I have no one to talk to about it!Pilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05235628363081574896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-4634532182670688022012-08-29T16:10:56.797+02:002012-08-29T16:10:56.797+02:00pspartHi Pili - Thanks for the recommendation.

This sounds like a book I'd enjoy. And there'd be no worries or complaints from me about it being a 'slow read.' I am, by choice, a very slow reader. I used to be a super-speed reader, but found that I didn't enjoy or get as much as I could have out of reading because of just buzzing my way through a book - any book - I'd read. Since that time (this is going back many years now), I have deliberately 're-taught' myself how to read slowly, really taking in the story, the characters, the ambience, the timeline, the location, and the millions of little details that make a book that much more enjoyable.<br /><br />When I do get this book (and I think I'll be doing that sooner rather than later), we can chat about it - it'd be fun to do that, dontcha think?<br /><br />Right, so. I'm off and away to work on some more kitchen plaques (the Christmas craft fairs are starting to take bookings now, so I've got to get a lot more done).<br /><br />Love,<br />Junewomanbreadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05067040898288898749noreply@blogger.com
