So how was it?
I haven’t read it yet. I am not sure when I could get to read it since I have a huge back log. :D
I have this book at home too, and though it looks interesting and I would really like to read it, I, also have tons on my “to read” list. :(
And to make matters worse, I am a slow reader. I have always been considering taking up speed reading lessons, but I fear that it would compromise the real essence of reading, which is to enjoy.
I know exactly how that feels. But I’m surprised you consider yourself a slow reader. Judging from your blog entries, it seems like you finish a book once a week..Personally I wouldn’t consider that slow reading.
But the books that I feature are have been read years ago, except for the ones that I just recently hoarded. Anyway, I like slow reading. I just wish I can read without being distracted so easily.
Exactly! I need a job that pays me to read and nothing more. lol.
A researcher? Haha, but that would be heavy reading of facts.
No…I meant just to read all the books I wanted to read, all day, and not have to come out with reports or blogs or anything. lol. It would be my dream job :)
Oh, but who wants to pay someone to read? I am afraid that if that post is open, I will have to compete with you, hahaha.
