Book Worm

I have entered the book worm phase.  Apparently, it follows the sewing phase which follows the photography phase which follows the quilting phase.  Reading is my new love, my new drug.

In July, I decided it was time to get on the Twilight bandwagon.

I was convinced that I would not fall in love with the series like everyone else did.  I was sure I would find it kind of lame, stupid.

Holy crap, was I wrong!

I LOVED it!!

Here are the books, in order of how much I liked loved them.

I read them all and watched the movies in about a two week time period.

The movies have a different order of loveness...but I guess I can't yet rank them yet since I have not seen the last one.

No worries, I plan on attending a midnight showing of Breaking Dawn part 2 the day it comes out.

I have become completely and utterly obsessed with the series, to the dismay of my husband.

But now that I have finished this series, I need something new to fill the void.

I have found just the thing...



And after that, maybe this...



And hopefully, after that something else great....until I phase into something else entirely.

Good reads.

I have come to really hate most childrens books.  I mean, they are truly boring and pretty lame, to be totally honest.  Unfortunately, the books that I find interesting, Sully would not as they have no colorful pictures and they are way too long.  We have tons of childrens board books, thanks to my wonderul SIL, niece and nephew.  However, since we read several books to Sully each night, I swear I have read all of them 100 times.  My real favorite one, that I have loved ever since the first time I read it, is Snowmen at Night.


This book I can definitely stand to read several times a week unlike some of the others.  The hubs likes to read Sully Is Your Mama a Llama?


Its ok but I can't read it in the proper voice like the hubs can.

As far as non-childrens books, I just finished The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.


It was a fantastic book and I recommend it to anyone who has time to read a 600+ pager.  I am excited to read the next two in the series.


Have any of you read any good books lately??
