One of my New Year's Resolutions this year was to read more. I really do love to read, but I seem to run out of town everyday and do not manage to squeeze a lot of reading in. When I was in college I started reading magazines like crazy. I always felt too guilty reading novels when I should have been reading a text book, but magazines made me feel less guilty. Now I probably have about 5 delivered to my house every month and then I pick up another 4 or 5 in the grocery store through the month.
Well, it's February already and I think I may be reading less than ever (maybe a clue about not setting resolutions.) In fact, I just finished the first book I have read this year. Maybe reporting on what I'm reading will encourage me to make time. Book number one was not life changing. In fact, it really has no educational, professional, or spiritual message at all. It is just plain chick lit. "Being Committed" by Anna Maxted was a fun little book which was written by a British author which makes it all the more enjoyable. I admit I picked the book based on the cover...probably from Tara's bookshelf. The book is about a girl who has some commitment issues based on an experience from when she was young. She is proposed to for the third time when the book opens and sillyness ensues. The writing was smart and the bad language when written by a Brit is more charming than offensive (as wrong as that may sound...)
I'm now going to finish "Tipping Point" which I started weeks ago and start "Socialnomics." Both will hopefully teach me something to become a better...something.
