obsessed


i have been spending waaay too much time reading lately. i am obsessed. it is so bad. i wake up in the middle of the night unable to sleep and pull out my mini mag light reading under the covers. i read until the batteries die, and then quietly wait for the sun to come up so i can read some more. each night i can't wait for the kids to go to sleep so i can do it all over again.

i don't remember the last time i was so obsessed like this. i love it. i am having so much fun. i keep picking out my next book thinking this one, then that one, then those two over there oooh and don't forget that one on the other shelf. i have at least ten more books lined up in my mind to read.

my current and embarrassing favorites are the twilight series. oh my gosh. these books are so fun to read. how could you not love a book about a teenage romance with a vampire. i mean really. what could be better. i have finished the first two books and am debating whether i should just keep going with the series or take a break with something that has a little more substance. i swear i am not just reading junk. the book that kicked off this read-a-thon was a wonderful book by ernest hemingway called a farewell to arms. now, back to the books...

i have to say that if you must have an obsession, reading is a very nice one to have... i'll be curious to see if you get all the way through the second book down in that picture this time though.

Twilight is very dangerous to read. I was obsessed- reading non-stop for 2 weeks- all four books! Don't be embarrassed though...every woman is reading it! I had a very lengthy conversation with a 60+ year old woman about how dreamy Edward Cullen is. Romantic vampires are universally hot.
