I LOVE to read. I always have. I have significantly increased my waking hours in life due to my inability to put a good book down, no matter how tired I may be.

That being said, I could not (could not!) get through "The Unbearable Lightness of Being." I won't, won't, WON'T try again. I can't even begin to describe the agony that horrid novel put me through.

Suffice it to say, we parted ways bitterly, no better for having met.

However, I can introduce you to a slew of wonderful novels. Books so amazing I can't imagine my life without their influence. Life is to short to force yourself to slog through the books you don't enjoy (unless it's for school, and then it's good for you!)
