I am a kayaker and own a kayak shop. I do not read just sports books I like just about anything. I especially enjoy reading suggested lists such as Oprah's book club or the Times best sellers. My favorite books are mysteies and spy novels. I don't read as much as I should but I do read every day. My shop is also a coffee-cappuccino bar. We have entertainment on weekend evenings. I am trying to help improve our historic downtown area. We have drum circle, folk singers and blue grass. I like to stay busy and read to relax. I like hard cover books best and do tend to save them. Our public library has best sellers off the new release shelf at two dollars each so I have an endless supply of recent rejects--which is why some of the books I leave may read discard.
