Books - my constant companions.

Lately I've been spending a lot of time thinking about the things that I've done in the past and then let go, or of the things that I kind of want to do but am not getting round to.  Thinking that way isn't healthy for me as it tends to make me feel bad about myself.  In fact it contributes to my negative self-talk.  But never mind about that.

I think my earliest memories of reading are from pre-school.  I'm sure my parents bought me Janet and John or Peter and Jane.  I don't know how I got on with them but I don't habe any negative memories from that time.  On the other hand I do have decidely negative memories of reading during my first year or two at school.  At the age of about 7 or 8 though something clicked and my reading took off.  Ever since I have constantly had a book on the go, often there has been more than one.

So I've decided that I'm going to keep a log of all the books I read this year.   I got the idea from some of my fellow Bookcrossers.
