Read-a-thon

I am a huge fan of reading. I love it. I love the fact that you can get away for a while in your imagination. The problem is I get so engrossed with the story that nothing else exists in my world. What kids? What chores? Laundry? and when I find a good book and a good author I will read those books until there is no more of that author to read, and them I am stumped. I was explaining this dilemma to my friend Shaunte and she told me about an author she likes, Janet Evanovich, so I truck my butt to the library and I check out a few of these books.

The first book is called One for the Money. It is one of 14 in a series. People I am telling you these books are so stinking funny that I find myself laughing outloud. Do you know how embarassing it is to be reading in a room by yourself and all of a sudden you just can't hold it inside and you break out it laughter. My kids think I am crazy. Why are you laughing at a dumb book? Well it is because there is some funny $@#! in these books.

The other problem I have with reading is the fact that if there is a series, I have to read them all.. like within a few days. I can't wait I am to impatient. I want to keep reading and reading. Well the Lehi library did not have this whole series available and I was not going to wait until they were returned. So I called my sister Nat in A.F. and I wanted her to sneak me in their library so I could get all the books in the series. Jammie, my other sister, later informed me that there was this new thing were if you werea resident of Lehi, P.G. or A.F. you could use your library card at all these libraries. Awesome. Now I could go into that library without feeling all suspicious, like they new I wasn't supposed to be there and they were gonna ban me from libraries everywhere. I think Nat was a little happy about that to. I think she felt weird cuz I was checking out naughty books, and if they were late she was probably afraid they would announce to the world that Natilie K. reads naughty books. I told her she would like them, she just had to skim the naughty parts, she just shakes her head at me when I say this.

So off I went to A.F. library because they are far superior to our own Lehi library(I was told this by an A.F. librarian) and checked out all 13 books in this series. #14 was just released in hardcover, I am patiently waiting for it to be on the library shelf, hopefully when I return the others it will be there. I did this on Monday and I am starting on #12. I have been reading 2-3 books a day. A day people, I can't get enough. My head hurts, my eyes ache and I want more. She better start writing faster.
