    Also a bookworm.. Lucky enough to work in a library and spend my days sampling books. Always have my library card maxed out and several books in progress..

    I love reading. I have ADD and ADHD really bad, so it takes me about four months to read a book.

    What are you reading now? I am starting Darwin's Origin of Species. Not exactly literature, but definitely worth reading.

    That is an amazing target. I could never do more than forty an year. Other types of reading always gets in the way.

    I read quite a bit. Lots of young adult/children's books because I feel like books for "adults" sometimes put a big damper on creativity..it has to be "believable". I've been trying to work my way through all the Newbury Award winners. But I mix in "serious" reading as well..."Pride and Prejudice" recently and I'll probably take another stab at "Catcher in the Rye" soon. Reading "Ida B." by Katherine Hannigan right now..

    I love reading young adult. Right now I am reading Trial By Fire, which is great so far. I just got done reading a book called "Red Queen", which was amazing and would recommend to anyone! Luckily I have a desk job and lots of down time to help with my habit lol

    I love fantasy books. I just started getting into the genre. I read all of Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series (incredible, highly recommend) and am currently reading book two of Robert Jordan's series.

    Pretty much all you guys can friend me! I love book people!

    I love to read. I'm real big on reading fiction and anything with supernatural elements to it. I tend to read a bit too much and spend a bit more than I should on ebooks! =)
