These past weeks of Pleasure Reading And Blog Entries have truly flown by! In review of the PRABE experience, I have thoroughly enjoyed it! Aside from already enjoying the 'art' of blogging, I appreciated the fact that I had to literally make quiet time for myself to actually sit down and enjoy a good book. It has been wonderful.
Please do not take this as a supercilious comment, but I have heard many times, mostly from people at church who hear me read during Sunday School or services, that I am a great reader. However, I have never truly liked reading. I can think of a million other things to occupy my time before considering to settle down with a book.
I must admit -- I was not happy when I learned I would HAVE to read for 90 minutes each week. I must also admit -- last week, when I had a half-hour of spare time, the first thing that came to mind was, "Hmmm...I wonder if there are any good books on the shelf downstairs?" :) Reading as an assignment has certainly heightened my interest and forced me to "try it." Now, my problem is that I'm probably sitting on the couch reading when I should be doing laundry or dishes. :)
My plan is to maintain this blog and continue journaling my reading moments. This has been a great outlet for me, and I am excited to keep growing as a reader -- even if I AM going on 30!
