The Help.

Looking for a good book to read? I hope so, because I have yet another recommendation for you. Previously, I recommended some young adult books that were fun, easy and exciting. This book is a little different. It's about black maids in the 1960's. Soooo interesting. It gives you a completely new perspective on both the lives of the maids and their bosses. This book is still an easy read, but it makes you stop and think. I dare you to give it a chance.

I can't stop reading.

When did reading get so good?
Perhaps it's because I never have time to do it.
Is that why sitting down to read a book is so enticing?

However, this summer is a little different than normal,
cause I'm actually giving myself time to read...
lots of time, really.

I've been on summer vacation for what, 2 months?
In those 8 weeks, I've read 12 books.
In addition to reading at least one book a week,
I've traveled on a majority of the weekends.

I. am. LOVING. it.

I haven't written too much, so hopefully you're still with me,
cause now I want to hear your opinion.

So tell me, what are some of your favorite books?

Good Books.

I think I'm addicted.
I picked up the Hunger Games at midnight with it in mind to read a few chapters and then hit the hay. Yeah... I didn't stick to that plan. Rather, I read until I finished the book. I couldn't get enough, so that very same day I got its sequel, Catching Fire. The beginning was sort of slow, but the second half was just as good, if not better, than the first.
So are you looking for a good, easy read?
I suggest these two puppies.
