PJVs Friday Featured Blog
The Unread Reader








Hi Missie...tell us a bit about your reading addiction...

As a kid, I read all the time, and I was even a 'library helper,' you know, where you get to school early just to help put books back in their place. I remember being so proud to have been picked for the job from a group of willing volunteers.  But in high school and college, I lost touch with reading for pleasure; if it wasn't 'required reading' I didn't have time for it.  There was even a period in my life when I was studying so much that I actually considered reading as being stressful.  Once I finished my graduate degree, I wanted a break from anything having to do with words on paper.  But slowly, I started picking up books again.  All kinds of books, a variety of genres, and I realized how much I missed reading and how much I enjoyed it. 

After that, I felt so unread and decided I wanted to do something about it.  So I jumped back into reading with a renewed passion by joining a local book club and even taking some literature courses.  Now that I've learned more, I feel like there is nothing I won't try when it comes to genres.  Yes, I love and probably even favor PNR and UF, but I also really like non fiction, contemporary, YA, mystery, humor, and of course, I can't forget the classics.  Now it feels like with each book I read, I'm developing relationships with stories, some meaningful, some as a passing fancy, and I'm loving it!

    ll be checking back to make sure I don't miss anyone!

    Oh dear. I just realized that while I discovered & followed this blog last evening through the Hop, I never commented to say hi & how much I appreciate your blog.

    I am a bad, bad person -- and it is no longer Friday, but I decided I would say hi since by rights I found you through BH/FF. So, apologies for the late post.

    And I DO appreciate your blog. I'm a very new blogger, and this site is amazingly helpful -- and genuinely nice.

    Thank you very much!

    Lily
