I recall starting to read a book and then say to myself after a couple of chapters "hey, I read this before". Shelfari keeps me from doing that again! LOL<br /><br />I was such an avid reader when I was younger. Now, my eyes get tired after reading for an hour or so.<br /><br />I loved reading your books! Which reminds me that I have to add them to my list on Shelfari.<br /><br />Merry Christmas!Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04718940729278446028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-66163551519298747062011-12-23T11:08:25.209-05:002011-12-23T11:08:25.209-05:00When I have time to read I will read Biographies.

Can't get enough of the written word, either here on the blogs or with a few of my favorite authors. I tend to like writers from the UK. Got a chuckle out of your Rockefeller story. Guess 60 is kinda of late to read a book through for the first time. But better late than never. I'm with you, if a book doesn't hold my attention, I'm outta of there. Take care.TARYTERREhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14620999913159718018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-21067385968848836012011-12-22T21:31:39.886-05:002011-12-22T21:31:39.886-05:00I used to think that I liked to read.

Hughes, Horton, Cox, Lowery, G. Campbell Morgan, Gause, Arrington, etc. are more my speed. Wait, though - - does it count if I read them and promptly forget them? ☺ Nowadays I find myself reading the Bible more than any other book. I read it for personal pleasure at least 4 times in a year. It's also a good sermon outline book! ☻ ☻ ☻Fred Altonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12740055638280779519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-24084682569989051352011-12-22T21:21:34.415-05:002011-12-22T21:21:34.415-05:00I love to read!

I have many favorites, some the same as yours! And I like a good mystery! Some books openings don't grab and pull you in, so I try to stick through the second or third chapter...by then I'm hooked and have to read the whole thing. I read one recently where the descriptive words were off, they didn't fit with the mood of the moment...actually the story was kind of lame too! It didn't make sense...but I stuck it out to the bitter end. It's rare that that happens! When I start I book, once I'm hooked I want to read it till I'm finished! Like the quote and the car!

Right now I'm reading a lot of free books on my Kindle and there have been a few that I just couldn't get into and have gone on to the next book in my line up. I won't continue with one that doesn't hold my interest. I do love to read your blog too...You never know from one day till the next what you might write about next. I also like a lot of the same authors you do, but have plenty of other favorites too. We had temps in the 50's yesterday, surprise for us this time of year, but today it is getting colder again.I'm mostly known as 'MA'https://www.blogger.com/profile/12107548726472541669noreply@blogger.com
