When I Was Younger...So Much Younger Than Today

Week:  13
Mission:  Describe Reading Habits

     In gradeschool, I read a lot because I couldn't watch TV unless I visited my grandparents' house.  I mostly read fictional books, but was willing to read just about anything that sounded interesting.  When I came to WLA, I basically quit reading independently  (with the exception of Sports Illustrated).  This project has reminded me why I love reading so much.  I can't hear anything around me.  The world around me freezes while I am in another time, another place, another life.  Without professional help, I will probably continue reading because of this project.
      I began reading more books intended for adults, such as Gone With the Wind.  I started challenging myself and reading for both information and cultural enrichment.  I also read books just for fun, like all the Spencer Quinn novels and the Janette Oke/Davis Bunn books that I am currently reading.

Hours:  7
