Reading

When I was a kid I hated reading. I just did it because my teachers told me I had to. In my old age though I've come to like it more and more. I usually read very light "chick lit" novels just to relax by the pool or beach because they are fun and you always know they are going to end happily ever after. My students are much luckier than I was though, because they have all of these programs were they can read whatever they want. This year a bunch of the girls were reading this book called the Lovely Bones. They suggested I read it but it seemed a little deep for me. Then a couple of the teachers were talking about the same book. I found it on the sale rack at the library so I decided to give it a shot. It's definitely not light reading (i wont read it before bed) but it does have me hooked. I'll let you know how it turns out.
