Day 164
My parents bought me a kindle for graduation, and I really, really like it. There are so many great things about it... 1. It's small and easy to carry around with you. 2. It can hold a lot of books! 3. Books are cheaper to buy... and supposedly libraries are about to start loaning books to kindles (which will be so great... and free!) 4. My kindle is registered under my mom's account (my mom has had a kindle for awhile now) and I get all the books that she already bought on my kindle.

Day 66
If you know me at all, you know that I enjoy reading. It's definitely such a great past time. There is one downside to reading though. I hate it when I find a really good book... and then I finish it. I wish it would just last forever. Good books are hard to find. I usually only read ONE maybe two good books a year. I mean, like really good books. A book that you cannot seem to put down. I've been lucky so far to have found THREE books that were stupendous. Yes, maybe the writing wasn't all that fancy, but the story telling was great.
Thankfully, I tend to enjoy reading books multiple times. Usually I find a book better the second time around, because I can focus on the little details. I just read these books (about a month ago) and already I want to start reading from the beginning again, but I know that if I do, I will be disappointed because I JUST read them (I usually need to wait 6 months- to a year to read books again). So, I've been on the hunt for good books, but with my mind still reeling from these books, it's been hard.
This is a trilogy (first comes the hunger games, then catching fire, and the last one is mockingjay) by Suzanne Collins.
If you enjoy fiction (and a lot of imagination), then you would probably enjoy these. My wonderful mother read these books, and then told me that I would like them... and I did :) If you start reading them, then make sure you have time!
Do you have any favorite books? I'll have to check them out :)
