Reading Frenzy

Does this happen to you? I just went through about 5 months where I read several books in a "READING FRENZY" where I bought a new book before I was done with the current book. I mean I was BORDER'S every weekend(well, the live music helped )

But now, I'm burned out. I can't decide what to read next. I'm thinking of trying a new author but I can't decide....I even thought of re-reading...oops...I mean FINISHING "INTERVIEW WITH A VAMPIRE".....I never really liked that book.

I'm with you. Times like the summer I have to go to the library everyday. Oh well. Found lots of great books.

I've been on a classics binge lately, reading all the pre-1920s published books I can find online. I just got through The Secret Garden and all 8 of the Anne of Green Gables books last week. I'm going to work on The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood, Gulliver's Travels, Brave New World, The Time Machine, Around the World in 80 Days, and a few of Edgar Rice Burroughs' novels next week.

As long as I have this much free time at work, I figured I'd put that time to good use by catching up on all the reading I neglected in my childhood.

Buying a new book before finished with the current one? I own thousands of books I've never gotten around to reading, probably never will.

Before I would try to complete books before starting new ones. But a while back I said screw it, why not start reading one or two others while finishing a current one.
