Book Finished...

Last night when I went up to bed, Rob was busy reading on his Sony Reader. I figured since I only had a couple more chapters left in my SisterChicks book, I would see if I could finish it. By 2am I was smiling and feeling refreshed with finishing yet another book.

I love the feeling of finishing a book that I have enjoyed or even gritted my teeth to get through the end of the book. Yes there are books that I kept a log on how many more pages were left, as it was just so bad. One of those books was Toni Morrison's The Bluest Eye when I was back in high school. I picked the book as it was the book of choice for the Oprah Book Club. I regretted choosing that book for a book report from the end of the first couple chapters. Oh well, I managed through it and was relieved when I was done. Then there are books that I do not want to end, as I am enjoying the story too much. I am sad when the book is done but pleased on how it ended. Or it could have been one of the books that ends with a cliff hanger and I have to wait six months until the next book comes out. Oh I hate those ones!!! I have learned now that if I read a book that belongs to a series...I wait long enough so that when I finish one book I do not have to wait for the next one.

So what book will I start tonight?? I think I will switch over to a msytery suspense book to change up the pace from the previous story that I had to something that will be like a roller coaster ride. It is a book that I have been wanting to read for awhile and I am excited to start it. I will be reading "Before I Wake" by Dee Henderson. I will have to let you know how it is!!!

  3. It will probably take me awhile to get through it as it is pretty thick and once this next term starts up i will not have much free reading time. ;) But come summer I sure will.
