Just to let you know I have finished Dan Simmons flashback, well worth a read I think. It does suck you into it's world, and people and you do end up caring and hoping. Now on to the next one either "embassytown" or on with "distrust that particular flavor" have started both but wonder which I will finish. Oh and those pieces of paper under the books are the beginnings of some thought for another story. Dyslexics should write stories, don't worry about the spelling punctuation first bring the story to life then it can grow from there.  Enjoy your day.

I like to read. Reading one of the things I do to relax,it just gives me a place to escape to rather than from. I have never felt the need to leave this world I rather like it. 

I do wonder if there other people who organise there reading lives as I do. 

I have a book always in my bag sometimes two. In each room of the house I have the book I am reading. In my household we read at breakfast and lunch. Not the evening meal that is when we talk. So my meal reading is Edgar Rice Burroughs: John Cater of Mars Collection. Before sleeping is Fashback Dan Simmons. Study is just heaps of books I am working through and adding to my list each week. I did have one that I have been waiting for for a while,  In Love and War by Jim & Sybil Stockdale. Started it straight out of the box. The fun thing is due to a postal delivery screw up I now have two copies. I shall gift it to someone, don't know who yet. have a great day.
