update: fall into reading

i think we're about half way thru the fall into reading 2008 so i thot i'd give you an update, sorry thing that it is.

i have totally ignored my reading list, tho i do have 3 books on my sidetable just waiting to be picked up. i started reading dies the fire and couldn't get into it, so i'm crossing that one off my list. instead i went back to my fav author, agatha christie and read the blue train. another fine mystery from the queen of mystery. i have also started reading created to be his helpmeet and am in the first or 2nd chapter. i like to read it slow so i can chew on the good stuff she talks about.

at this rate i will probably not get to all my books, unless i put some serious time into reading. a new goal i have is to get my son to sleep before i need to go to sleep. that would give me some time to read before bed. we'll see if i can make that happen.


how 'bout you? how are you doing on your reading stack? did you join the reading challenge?

The book Marley and Me by John Grogan was recommend on another blog so I checked it out from the library and am enjoying it SO much! I think you would like it Gail, as you have enjoyed owning a dog!

Gail,

I need to look at my list again, too. In my typical fashion, I've swapped out a couple "new" books for some of the original ones I'd planned on.

Hi Gail, I badly need some new books to read. Last two trips to the libary i was too busy helping my kids select books i didn't get any for myself I'm reading my son's books now he loves mysteries and they are not that too bad actually. My 8 year old is a night owl so he curls up next to meet reading while i read. Maybe your son will curl up with you.
