It's something I haven't ever focused on for my own writing's sake. I've just gone where random events take me, when it comes to reading. :D Still, it's been fun!<br /><br />@Jenni, you ARE busy! LOL. Makes me tired just hearing about it! And yet I'm sort of in the same boat (apart from the reading TWO books thing)<br /><br />@Donna - don't I know it! I've got a whole bookshelf full of unread books.<br /><br />@Lynda - I haven't heard of that. Will have to check it out!<br /><br />@Rachel - the trick? read short books! ;) I don't consider myself a fast reader, yet I do seem to be getting through a fair few.<br /><br />@Cally - sounds interesting. I'm not religious at all, but I enjoy hearing other people's perspectives on their beliefs.<br /><br />@Robyn - For some reason I didn't realise Ian Irvine wrote MG. His books look like fun! ;) Just checked out his site. and I love GoodReads!!Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16927558937796802496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238481189278119116.post-10219643407950161792011-04-21T21:38:15.855+08:002011-04-21T21:38:15.855+08:00Nice list of books!

Right now I'm reading Up Country by Nelson DeMille and Do They Know I'm Running by David Corbett.

I need to get over to my GoodReads to add them and grade 'em too. These books are MG. I read what I write, so MG and picture books. Some times I get to read a big peoples book. :-)Robyn Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17356555082768185840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-238481189278119116.post-46422847636466107092011-04-21T20:59:16.565+08:002011-04-21T20:59:16.565+08:00I'm currently reading Seeking the Sacred by St...I'm currently reading Seeking the Sacred by Stephanie Dowrick, which is basically about how you can have a spiritual life without being 'religious' as such.
