Too Many Books, So Little Time!

So last night, Samantha asked me how I read so fast...  I wasn't aware that I read fast, it's not like I signed up for Evelyn Wood's speed reading classes back in the 70's.  But I have been reading that long, and writing almost as long.  I think I personally kept Scholastic books in business - them, and whoever was publishing the Hardy Boys books :-).  Now days, I keep myself busy with the latest Nicholas Sparks or John Grisham novel.  Or Sandra Brown, Tess Gerritsen, Sue Grafton, Janet Evanovich, Stuart Woods, David Baldacci, Lisa Scottoline, James Patterson, Lisa Gardner...  Harry Potter, Twilight, The Hunger Games... Anything with a good story line, characters I can relate to, or a mystery to solve. Even Steven King still entertains me after all these years.  So reading fast?  I pretty much have to, because there are so many books, and there is so little time!
