I am a fast reader.
A fast, obsessive reader.
For those of you who may not know, I read the first six Harry Potter books in a span of five days. I finished the seventh Harry Potter book in one night. I was a waste of a wife wandering around muttering spells under my breath, feeling like an utter squib because none of them worked.
My sister in law got all three Stephanie Meyer books for her birthday. I started the first one Friday night and finished the third one Sunday afternoon.
I have serious problems.
I need your help people.
I need books to read.
Please keep in mind that I am a bit prudish when it comes to violence and several four letter words. (I know, me? prudish? silly, I know.)

You guys?
ARE AWESOME.
I have taken all of your suggestions (left out the ones I’ve already read) and made a fancy schmancy list over at LibraryThing. Feel free to use it too. Because I? I have the best readers ever.
Without further adieu…the books that will be occupying all my time and it’s all your fault.

I have the same problem. I need a backlog of at least 5 or 6 books at ALL times. You never know and I cannot be stranded without a book. Ever.

I keep hearing about the Twilight series. But I’m not sure I can commit to them.
If you like reading, you really should join Britt’s Super Duper Blogger Book Exchange. I did it last time and LOVED it. It’s like reading books and blogging at the same time.
You should totally sign up for it.

Don’t miss Loose Lips by Claire Berlinski. Suitable even for a prudish one, if I recall.

A woman after my own heart. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to read. As evidenced by my filled to the brim bookcases. And the two books sitting on my coffee table…yet here I am getting caught up on your archives. Well at least I’m reading and not working for once!:)
