I’ve been reading ever since I can remember. I have always been an avid reader, and it annoys me to no end that I don’t have time to read for pleasure anymore. I mentioned in another blog post that I have a few books on the go right now - I have started seven books recently and at this rate, I will never finish one. They’re all business related - blogging, PR, marketing, copywriting, and on and on. The only quiet time I get to read is when I’m driving and that’s frowned upon. How about audio books?, you say…don’t think the kids would go for that - let alone the husband. I do manage to find time throughout the day - not every day, but most days - while I’m waiting for dinner to cook or when I’m giving my baby a bottle, or if I’m waiting for something to download.

If there’s a book I’ve heard good things about, or something I really want to read, I will check it out at the library to ‘try it on’ before buying it. I usually do buy my books, but I almost always take them out on loan from the library first.

For any of you who love to read but don’t use the library service - try it! I usually don’t finish my book before it’s due back, but I can renew books online, or if I’m digging the book, I’ll buy myself a copy.

If you’re not much of a reader, and haven’t read many business books there are a couple you should read or find on audio that are absolute MUST reads!

As I searched for the above links on Amazon, I discovered ‘Kindle‘ the latest ‘wireless reading device’. I don’t get it. Why would a person rather read on a little computer than from book pages? I’ll have to look into that later, but can anyone enlighten me?!
