I read therefore I am

Anyone who really knows me knows I read. I read a lot. I can often be found with a book in my bag or purse, I have one on my desk at all times, an audio book on my MP3 player, and one next to the bed. I am capable of reading multiple books at once and often am.  I read mostly fiction because I have enough nonfiction in my real life. There are a few nonfiction subjects that I will just devour anything abouth them that is well written. I’m not a literature snob, I love the trash as much as I love the classics. I will make no claims you be the fastest reader that is out there but on average I can read two books a week, sometimes more. Some books are easy reads(like harry potter) and some I have toiled over reading for years(like the hobbit). I recently was thinking about the books I read and how much I read and was wondering how many books do I read a year? I have a bad memory I can remeber most stories and plots of books not always the details, but when that book was added to my vast databanks of knowledge is fuzzy. So I have decided to document what I am currently reading and have read. I will be posting each book I have read as micro posts within a books I’ve read category, these posts like the made monday posts will not show up in the blog section of my main page although they will show up in the main feed. Clear as mud? I hope you enjoy reading these posts/reviews as much as I do!

    Cool! I’m a reader too and have a massive pile beside my bed. This weekend I’ve knocked over New Moon and the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society which I really enjoyed. I’ve started putting reviews on my blog so I can keep track of books too. I have been accused of being a literary snob, probably justly. :) I can understand why you struggled with Tolkien -someone throw that man an adjective! I wish I could knit and read at the same time, but haven’t figured out how to keep the book open.
