OPEN ME

I thought about gushing over the endless Edward/Jacob debate for this post, but I suppose you Twinerds already have heard it all. I would tell you that I just can’t choose…I don’t know what I want anymore…but that might just be too geeky to post on my oh-so sophisticated blog.

Seeing those movies makes me truly miss being engulfed in a story like that. There have only been two series in my reading world where I would quit with the homework and literally forget to eat because I just couldn’t put down the book. Only Harry Potter and Twilight have done that for me. Both series came in the midst of important scholarly milestones in my life. I read HP as I was supposed to be finishing my thesis my senior year in college. Then Twilight came along in grad school proving it to be a dangerous combination. Luckily, I’m bloody brilliant and it wasn’t a problem 😉

I have other favorite books and authors, of course, but I’m missing that feeling of wanting to do nothing but lose myself in a story. Do you know what I mean? When I read the last page of the Harry Potter books, I was seriously sad. I didn’t know what I would do. I fought the urge to pick up the very first one and start all over again. I want another story like that! I need a book that screams, “OPEN ME!”

Any suggestions bloggy friends? Do you have a book or series that you’re in love with?

I plan on reading a lot more. I rarely watch T.V., but I sure can waste time on the internet! Have you checked out my Book Review page? There you’ll find the books that I’ve read this year. The number isn’t what I’d like it to be, but I plan on upping that soon. I have so many books I have yet to read lying around here. I better go get started! I’m currently reading Walk Across America by Peter Jenkins. What are you reading these days?
