Reading Rut

Uuuuuuuggggggghhhhhhh. This is me, thinking about reading. I have seriously been struggling with finding interest in reading and books for several months now. I really want  to read all the books and write the reviews and talk about everything...but I just can't. I'm not really sure why I'm not interested.

You should check these books out!".  I kind of brushed it off for a while until my family and I were getting ready to go on a road trip. I stopped by my local Books-a-Million and picked up the first three, distraught that the fourth wasn't out yet. I had told myself that I was going to wait to read them until my trip, otherwise I didn't know what I was going to take with me. At this point in my life I wasn't as voracious a read as I was now and my personally library was small.  Well. I didn't wait. In fact, I read the first book in less than a day and could hardly wait to get my greedy hands on the next ones. Like most people I devoure...
