I have always been an avid reader ever since I can remember. When I was little I remember my mom taking me to the old Yardville Library on South Broad Street in of course Yardville, NJ where I grew up. It was in the upstairs of a building and really quite small when you look at today’s library’s. They didn’t even have computers in them back then, which gives you a pretty good idea of my age. My first books were Dr Seuss, Where the Wild Things, Danny and the Dinosaur. As I got older and started reading chapter books my love for reading grew even more. I fell in love with Nancy Drew, the Hardy Boys, the Three Investigators. Books that had series were always a favorite and still are today.<\/p>\n
A good book can take you so many different place and even out of this world. I am always amazed when I hear someone say that they hate to read. A huge part of my life is books. I have literally read thousands. I cannot go to sleep at night unless I read. There are some weeks were I can go through two or three books depending on the length. I guess this is why I have always wanted to be a writer, My favorite genres are horror, fantasy, sci-fi, mysteries although I also read a lot of non-fiction.<\/p>\n
I remember when the Kindle and Nook first came out and I declared I would never give up my print books for an electronic one. That has certainly changed. I still buy print books because I love collecting books, but most of my reading is done on both Kindle and Nook and a few other devices. There is still no better feeling then opening a new book and feeling the pages in your hand. The main reason I use electronic books are because most my reading is at night and it is so much more convenient having something back lit that I can change the font size on depending on how well my eyes are seeing.<\/p>\n
Now for some books that I have personally read recently and highly recommend. Terry Goodkind – Sword of Truth – is a series of 15 epic fantasy novels. All of the books contain over 500 pages so you really get your monies worth. Sean Platt and David Wright – Yesterdays Gone -is a series of 6 horror sci-fi. This series blew me away, this however is an adult read novel. Sean Platt and David Wright – Crash – this is a short horror book that will keep you reading till its done novel.<\/p>\n
The first two books in the Yesterdays Gone series are free eBooks and the authors will also send you Crash and two other books for free.<\/p>\n
That’s it for this weeks blog post. Peace to all and happy reading.<\/p>\n
