Reading...

How sweet it is to have someone read to you...
I think that is why I enjoy listening to books while I knit. (both of my favorite things to do!)

I am currently listening to "5th Horseman: Women's Murder Club" by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro. And I am knitting... SOCKS! (of course).

I haven't read many of James Patterson's books but what I've read so far I like. I enjoyed the Maximum Ride series and look forward to the next book, "Fang." One of his new series, Daniel X, is also good.

But, nothing beats holding a book. I'm currently reading "Kiss of Fate" by Deborah Cooke. Who can resist hunky men who turn into dragons?!!

I enjoy reading many authors and like the variety. It would be hard to pick a favorite. Is it Sci-fi? or mystery? or even the latest, paranormal romance?!! So I have made a list (yep, remember I'm a list person) and when someone recommends a book, I add it to my new authors to try list. (You know I have a list of books by my favorite authors and their new books coming out) One day I'll get to all the books on ALL my lists.

So, on my waiting list of next to read...a few of my favorite authors...
I started reading J. D. Robb in 2002 after resisting my daughter's comments that I would enjoy these books because they are set in the future and involve murder. I picked up "Reunion in Death" and was hooked! I went to bookstore and bought the first books catching up to to the latest one at that time. Then I got my co-worker hooked! So we not only talked about budgets (ugh!) but we talked books! These books are great and I can't wait for the paperback so I support the author and buy the hardback. (lol) Besides, both my girls read these.

Since I am behind on my 52 Books in 52 Weeks challenge I'll pick up my book and read on this overcast, misty, afternoon. (I can knit this evening, lol).
