It has tailed off recently in the past few months ever since I've discovered podcasts. Prior to that, I used to average about two books read every 1 1/2 weeks or so. Even decided to keep a lengthy list of what books I've read for this year (41 so far) but it has petered out badly in the 3rdQ of this year. Started to bounce back very slowly, and as I make my way through my podcasts, will probably start reading a bit more in the process.G.B.

Lost power yesterday and sat on the balcony most of the afternoon and evening reading. when the light went away, I listened to the baseball game on the transistor radio. I read two books HRH might like ... cozy mysteries featuring two "magical" cats -- Owen and Hercules. Pure brain candy. I also read serious stuff........<br />Hugs----- Snaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16648866385164116020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4666990364305390259.post-25823202151927034672018-09-10T16:44:50.553-06:002018-09-10T16:44:50.553-06:00Oh my, I do love my books but please do NOT give m...Oh my, I do love my books but please do NOT give me any works of fiction!Kay G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07228498846814735537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4666990364305390259.post-7470944148563305242018-09-10T15:44:34.032-06:002018-09-10T15:44:34.032-06:00I like reading, too, but I take mine by spells.
