It's Monday! And I'm Back!


So what in the world happened to me?

I don’t really have an answer for you. I just suddenly could.not.read. Two weeks went by, and I didn’t look at a single book. It wasn’t really a slump – it was a stop.


Today I picked up, once again, The Portable Veblen by Elizabeth McKenzie. This is the book that I have been carrying around all this time and not reading. And guess what? I blew through several hundred pages this afternoon, and I feel almost like I have reading momentum again. The novel features a talking squirrel and lots of relationship drama. How could I resist?


So my goal for this week is simply to keep reading – because let me tell you, I don’t really know who I am if I don’t have a book in my hand.

    We all have those moments. Days, sometimes. Weeks start to feel, frankly, scary.

    A talking squirrel- that one looks interesting. Hope your reading slump goes away... and have a nice week. :)

    Reading stops or slumps are good to regroup. It's important to do that so that you keep enjoying reading and blogging. :-)
