A Reader

Are you a reader? 

I was a reader when I was little.  I totally remember racing through books as quickly as possible to ride my bike to the library and get another book.  Some of my favorites were The Bread & Butter Indian, Little House series, Nancy Drew & Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle.  I remember our school librarian, Sr. Victoria, a little old nun with her walker.  

Then I wasn't a reader.  Life and education got in the way and I only read what I was required to read.  We had kids, and my reading consisted of Dr. Seuss, Arthur and cookie eating mice. 

Now that my kids are older and reading on their own, I've rediscovered books and reading.  My friend and I have formed a book club.  I guess we are on our 3rd or 4th years now.  Last night we had our monthly meeting and discussed The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. 

I think it's always interesting to get people's take on a book.  They see things differently than you might or have a totally opposite opinion on the book. 

I don't always enjoy the club's book choices.  They wouldn't be something that I would choose.  I think that people should have read the book before they choose it, so we know it's not a stinker. We've had some stinkers, but we've also had some books that I've LOVED.  Some of the best books that we've read are...

    

   

Do you have a great book that you've read recently?
