read more fiction

I’ve read:

Terry Pratchett: Feet Of Clay, Witches Abroad, The Wyrd Sisters and Lords & Ladies. I really liked all the books. They made me laugh and cry! Not sure what I’m gonna read next!

Really great book…humourous and had me laughing a lot! I can’t wait for the next one….but I might have to look around on amazon…or maybe the library…otherwise I might end up spending more than I really should :)

Just finished reading this book…Really enjoyed it and now gonna move onto “Men At Arms”

I am really enjoying taking time offline, time for myself to just sit, relax and read. It’s been a long time since I have done anything like that. My reading was usually kept for holidays but I haven’t had one of those for about 5 years now. A real holiday where you just go to enjoy spending time doing as little as possible…do they even exist anymore??

“read more fiction” is not a very finite goal. So…I am going to set myself a more concrete measureable goal of reading one fiction book per month for a year…..then I can always extend it if I want to. Starting this month – July 2007, I will read one book per month until June 2008 and write about what I have been reading here to monitor this goal :)

When my honey was visiting me in June, he bought me two books: “Guards! Guards!” and “Men At Arms”. I started reading Guards! Guards! a few weeks ago but then didn’t pick it up for a while. It is a really good book, the characters are really growing on me and I am going to try and finish it soon so I can read the next one.

My life has been so busy I didn’t have time for reading before…or perhaps I was too lost in my own world to make time for reading. But that has changed now…I’m getting back to making my reality worth living…and I’m liking it more and more everyday.
