I am almost ALWAYS in the mood to read. Truly, that is usually all I want to do every waking moment and I pull many all nighters reading because I just can't put a good book down until I've read every last word. Lately, I have not wanted to read at all. I actually haven't read a book in just over 2 months and it makes me really sad because I love it so much. I have a huge stack of books by my bed and my goal is 100 again for this year (birth year, not calendar year) and I have yet to read even one. This is beyond frustrating for a bibliophile like me and I don't know how to get out of my literary funk :( My book club, the Ladies Literary League, is taking a break for the summer. I am the President of our club and I should have announced it a month and a half ago when I decided but I just sent out the email announcing our break about 10 minutes ago. Oopsie! We are going to read Eat, Pray, Love and then see the movie on August 13th. I am hoping now that I have set a plan in motion I will read our next book and then be motivated enough to tackle the stack by my bed. I cherish few things as much as the written word and I desperately want to read again. Here's hoping...
No matter how busy you may think you are,you must find time for reading,
or surrender yourself to self-chosen ignorance.
