summer reading.

So back in spring, right as school was wrapping up, I decided to read a book every week, totaling up to 16 books read during the summer. Well, sometime near the end of June I passed that goal and now, as I look back, I can't even keep track of all the books I've read. But I loved it!! My book shelf is now overflowing and my library card is looking quite worn.

In another life, I'd love to have been a book critic. Getting paid to read and review books? SWEET! Doesn't it sound perfect?

But, this amount of reading is mere a summer hobby. As soon as September comes my nose will be in the pages of Anatomy and Nursing, and leisurely reading will be shoved to the side.

The amount of reading I've got through this season makes talking 'books' with people quite fun - there is a very good chance that I've read at least 1 or 2 books that someone else can relate to. Even a 94 yr old resident at work - her and I always chat it up about the latest bestsellers found in Chapters. It's quite great.

Otherwise, summer has been lovely and lazy (on my days off, that is). There are only a few weeks until school starts and already I've started the reorganization of my school supplies and residence things. I don't think the start a new school year can ever get old.
