I am an obsessive reader. Those who knew me in the Harry Potter days will confirm this. I discovered that series in college; after it had been out for about 4 books. I decided they were more fun to read than accounting textbooks. I was obsessed and pre-ordered the new books so they would arrive on my doorstep (since I was far away from Barnes and Noble) and read late into the night so I could finish the new book as fast as I could. Because I HAD to know what was going to happen.
Harry Potter ended, life goes on. Then I discovered the Twilight series. I had tried to read it once before and couldn't get into it. I liked the movie and tried again last week. I have been obsessed--ignoring my child and my husband so I can read about vampires. Wow, that's sad. I don't know why I like to read about this really eccentric world--probably because its the opposite of banking :) However, I have finished the last book tonight so life can go on because I now know how Bella and Edward end up. Those who have read it understand. Those of you who haven't--run to the bookstore and start. You'll be addicted like I was. You'll want to run away with a vampire. But thankfully I finished the books before vacation begins on Saturday; otherwise I would have to had to make Mom drive and ignore her and Paige for 6 hours so I could finish!
