reading

If you're looking for some volunteer hours without a long term commitment, there's a great opportunity this month to read to area kids with Leap into Literacy.

I finally got around to reading a loaned copy of "My Cross To Bear" by Gregg Allman. It's not a literary work of art but it IS worthy of your summertime spare time.

Sitting on the front stoop with a good book. One of my fave things to do. HOWEVER, when your attention span is as short as mine you tend not to FINISH said good book.

I've got at least 3 books scattered around that I've been trying to finish in the last couple of months but when a copy of 'The Book Of Drugs' by Mike Doughty showed up in the mail, I was glued.

2012 is almost upon us, which means "the best of" lists are almost over. I do wish I could put together a "Best Books of 2011" list.

So, you're thinking of catching up on some reading this summer? Well, you're not alone. Amazon.com has come out with its list of the most well-read cities in America. The website created its rankings by looking sales of books, magazines and newspapers in print and on the Kindle since January 1 of this year.
