dreambloggin' about blogspot

I found the blogspot stories interesting. I try to be an avid reader, and usually have something on a burner. It was interesting hearing the degree in these people started their libraries, or the age I when they became avid readers. I always feel like the polar opposite of the people at blogspot, or any person who calms to be well read. I am always reluctant to make that statement.

I didn't read at all until I discovered Vonnegut My freshman year of college. I was like "wow" some actually writes books that are interesting. I even remember reading a Vonnegut story in my high lit class and thinking it was awful. I think I only pick reading as a social thing all my friends were always reading this or that and were telling me I should check it out. It's funny we have the book circle, and I have had a informal book thing with all my friends for such a longtime, we will recommend something, loan, or borrow. I buy my best friend books a lot as presents, because every time he loans out to me. I ended up doing something to defile it( that's really the best term). We have a running joke about " yes ", "I will take this, run over it with my car and give back to you". "Is that cool". I am lucky though I have diverse taste in reading material, and I am always getting recommended something new and interesting.

I read a far amount of books. Some I should have, some I wish I hadn't, I don't buy a lot of books. I go to the library, or borrow books from friends. I use to buy some books, and donate them to the library when I finished them, if the library didn't have them.
That my story, "Books Checkem' out"
