I admit, I'm a book nerd. But my love for novels extends to an obsessive level for series and sagas. And one step further? Science fiction.
So when I started reading The Hunger Games, I knew I wouldn't be able to stop until I finished reading the entire trilogy as fast as possible.
Oh, sure, I'm like that with all series. I read the first one casually and then devour the rest as fast as I can until I'm finished and (usually) satisfied, although a little sad. I think about them when I'm not reading them. And I text my friends that have read them with my undying love for the characters.
I read the entire Percy Jackson and the Olympians series when I was on spring break last year. My house went to hell and we ran out of toilet paper and food. When we moved into the house we live in currently, I was in the middle of reading the Twilight saga. I would secretly hide in corners of the house pretending to "unpack" so that Matt wouldn't get mad at me.
So now, as usual, I find myself ripping through these books. But I'm loving the distraction, as well as the plot. I feel like I deserve this last weekend of pure reading marathon status since I start seeing students this week. Or maybe I just deserve it just because.
Honorable Mentions:
- Fresh, warm cider mill doughnuts and cider
- An awesome, productive Change Exchange meeting this evening
