I went for nearly a decade, not having the time or concentration to read. Then I found BC and dove right back in to my first love! The last couple of years have seen me back in a rut of being too stressed, tired, busy, to read. Last year, I think I finished 3 books :(. This year, I'm still working on the first one. But recently, I have seen an upswing in my BUYING of books I don't have time to read ;). So maybe that's a good sign.

I'm a mom of 3, a preschool teacher, and an avid reader. I've loved to read all my life, probably thanks to my grandma reading to me since I was born. It is still one of my favorite pastimes. I don't necessarily have a favorite genre, just whatever sounds interesting. I really enjoy being able to talk books, authors, and anything else here on Bookcrossing!
