Did you miss me?

I have been "away" for a few days and I don't think I am going to pick up where I left off, rather I will just write what I would like to discuss today.  I want to talk about books and reading.  I am curious to know what everyone is reading today or even lately...because not everyone gets the chance to read every day.

I am a horrible person when it comes to reading because I can never finish something before I start something else.  My son might say my ADD is setting in, but I would prefer to think of it as I have different moods. Yeah, that sounds MUCH better! 

Today I bought two more books that I think I will start reading here in the next day or two, in addition to the few I have already started. On my Nook I am reading Bram Stoker's "Dracula" because I want to know how it all started - even though I believe legends began before that.  But I really want to know how to measure up the current movies and stories to the 'original.'

On my Kindle I am reading a book called "The Towers of Tuscany." It is set in Siena, Italy, long ago during the times of the great painters.  It's going kinda slow, so I thought I would branch out and get started on something else.

So I bought another Kindle book, "Game of Thrones" by George R. R. Martin. Please don't ruin it for me since I am only YEARS behind the times on this one. But I just think it sounds like something I would like, especially since I loved "Lord of the Rings" and "Hobbit" as well as the Eragon series by Christopher Paolini.  When I am done with this series I plan on getting Suzanne Collins's series "Hunger Games." But that is much later.
     
                                               

Also, today, I picked up another book - a REAL book. One with pages and everything!  It is a non-fiction book, the title of which I would rather not reveal since it is a little too personal.  Suffice it to say that I am trying to better myself and that is ALWAYS a good thing. 

So....I guess you could say that I have a book for every mood. Dark. Historical. Fantasy. Helpful.  All I need now is something light...any suggestions?  Never mind, I am sure I can find something on my shelves of actual and digital shelves.  It's just a matter of getting started.  No telling when I will finish anything.  But that's kind of the fun thing for me, because in between reding all these books I am still writing. I'm a mess sometimes, not suhre whether I am coming or going, but I do know this - each place is magical and I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world!

Delving into my own conscience now with my writing,

Petra

P.S. Have a wonderful rest of the week and I look forward to hearing from everyone on what books they enjoy or even what genre appeals to you.
