Remember When...

I remember when I could read 3 or more books a day and then I discovered I had to be a grown up, Boo Hoo!

Ok I'm not as fast as you in the reading department, but I know what you mean!

Ok, I'm not that fast. I was doing one a day for a while, with 3 kids running around, but now I'm lucky if I can get a book finished in a week. I'm a SAHM, but free time is nonexistent. Though I did become somewhat neglectful on Tuesday when Lora Leigh's Only Pleasure was released. I was finished Tuesday night There are just some books that I can't help myself with. I find I do the same thing with KMM.

I know what you mean, there are just some books I just can't put down once I start but then that is the best kind.

Yeah, I miss reading more than one book a day! It was great on my last day off I just sat and read, I re-acquainted myself with Hawk and Grimm, then finished Circenn on Saturday. Normally I'm lucky if I get the chance to read more than one a week!

I remember those days!!I can almost barely get done with 1 a month now. I just started back to work full time, and then come home to my 3 boys, and DH goes to work. When one comes out that I really want to read though my hubby takes care of everyone for one of the weekend days so I can read it. It's to his benefit really..

Definitely to their benefit! I just finished reading Lora Leigh's Only Pleasure, and he definitely benefitted from that!

LOL! Well that should be insintive enough!! LOL!

LOL girls, I must try that one the next time I want to read, although the last time he asked me what I was reading and to read some aloud, he got a bit of a fright lol

LMAO! Afraid you would take a bite out of him? What were you reading?

LOL Mandy. Dh was able to get some free ebooks through work and he downloaded Lora Leigh stuff for me. He decided he wanted to see what kind of stuff I was reading, so he opened up to a page and took it from there. I was half asleep when I hear him say, "WOW! That's hot!" Then got up and left the room. When I looked to see what he was lucky enough to stumble upon, it was one of the Men of August books. For anyone who's read them, you know what kind of scene he found. For those of you who haven't, let me just say, 3 men, 1 woman... HOT! He hasn't complained since when he finds me reading. He just wonders if he's going to be able to move the next day. lol

LOL!!!!!

I remember those days too *sigh*.
One of the things that sucks about being an adult, no time to hang out all day, all week just reading.

LOL I was reading an Emma Holly, think it might have been catching midnight, he was a little shocked it was so....... descriptive shall we say LOL but he though it was hot, so he got the benefit of it!

Although it was funnier when he was helping me move and he had taken some of my books in the car and then had to pick up one of the guys, the guy seen the books and was like man your girlfriend reads porn........ cool LMAO, the then had to explain it wasn't porn!

LOL!!! Well in his friend's case you must be like the best girlfriend ever!!

LOL I think I just may be!! That or they think i'm nuts!

LOL that's too funny Mandy.

I just claim I don't feel well and lock myself in the bedroom. That SOMETIMES works.

And yeah I don't remember having a time I could get through more than 2 books a day BUT for a long time (IE: pre-baby days) I had a book a day habit!

If I have time lately I have been able to get through a book in a day or two which for me is good at the minute, but that won't last long, when I have to go back to reading scientific papers and proff reading for people

I tell ya what Mandy, let's trade jobs, I'll take your's over mine anyday! LOL!
