• My Stack =)

  I love to read, all types of books, I love the stories, the learning, the fantasy. My reading has been on and off lately, reading a lot, then reading a little. I should get to it a little more. I have a stack in my room I need/want to read...when I say that I have a stack of books in my room, I'm not kidding, I really have a stack. Hehe. Some of these books I have bought, some my mom gave me to read, some my sister gave me to read, and some I found around the house and I grabbed them. =) I thought, why not make a list, get a lil' input? I will, however, refrain from typing out each synopsis because that would make for one long blog! Instead I have linked the books in case you want to check it out. So in no particular order, my stack:

  I am currently reading The Horse Whisperer by Nicholas Evans and am enjoying it.

  As you can see I do read a lot of the same author. Either because I like their writing style/pace or just their stories in general. I do try to switch up authors because reading the same one can get monotonous in pace and such. I do wish some of these books wern't so love story type or in the case of Nora Roberts', stories that did not contain so much, or any, sex. I like some of the worlds that Roberts creates but all the sex gets annoying. lol. I know there is another stack of books somewhere in the house my mom has for me, there is also a stack in the living room I need to go through before we give them away. There is a few series that I am waiting on the next book to come out or have not bought the newest one. I also plan to revisit some old books, including the Harry Potter series as I have been wanting to read them again. Needless to say my reading is set for awhile..

  Despite having tons of books to read, I am always looking for a great new book. I have recently been working on moving out of the "romance" section and into, just plain ol' good stories! So if you have read something you really enjoyed and want to recommend, I will add it to my list of books I want to pick up. There is this great little used book store in town that I found and can't wait to revisit! =) If you have read any on my list let me know, I wouldn't mind some input as to which is really good, I am terrible at deciding what I want to read first/next. LOL
