May is "Get Caught Reading Month". You can almost always catch me reading
something. I'm one of those people who takes a book with me wherever I go. Hey,
you never can tell when you might need a book to keep you company! And now that
I have an e-reader, I'll sometimes take that with me and have any number of books
at my disposal.
I'm so lucky that my parents were readers and that there were
always books in our home. I sometimes
drove my mom to distraction when I'd rather be inside reading than outside
playing! But when I began working in a school, I learned that not all
children are as fortunate as I was. It
broke my heart to realize that some children had no books at all in their homes.
Thank goodness for the school library!
And thank goodness for public libraries. In spite of my
e-reader, I still borrow many books from my local library. I'd go broke if I
didn't. As the saying goes, so many books, so little time.
So guess what, you caught me reading! Right now I'm reading "Sweet Magik" a Faery Rose novel by Penny Watson. I'm really enjoying the story of
Oskar Klaus and Kianna Grant. Oskar, one
of Santa's five sexy sons, is a snowboarder and a bibliophile. As "Director of Elfin Resources" Oskar
has his hands full as he tries to win Kianna's heart, deal with a malevolent
elf named Wiebe, and discover who's released the Dark Magik that's causing
mayhem at the North Pole.
Did I catch you reading? Please leave a comment and tell us
about the book you're reading right now. I'll be giving a $10 gift certificate
to The Wild Rose Press or The Wilder Roses (your choice) to a random commenter, to help you buy even more books.
Thanks a lot!
