Vacation Reading

Why is it that reading and vacations go hand in hand? I often... "DO WHAT I WANT" so why is it that I don't slow down to read more often?

During my 10th year anniversary trip to Florida with my husband, I was able to finally read, My Sister's Keeper. Wow. What a moral and emotional issue. Nothing like wiping tears aways while sitting on the beach. Now to see the movie and see if they do the story justice.

Christmas Reading

Christmas break was fantastic this year. I enjoyed completing 3 books while on vacation and have continued to read since coming home. What a thrill is was to finish each book.
