Reading. Writing. No Arithmetic.


I've gotten back into reading. I love reading. It's like living two lives. I lost that loving feeling, and now I am back.

I started reading 'Eat, Pray, Love' - and didn't love it. It was ok - but not amazing. I felt a bit crankypants when reading it. I saw the movie, and quite liked it. The book, notsomuch.

Unceremoniously, I dumped it. Just because everyone under the sun has read it doesn't mean I have to read it.

Instead I've taken up with Richard Yates' 'Revolutionary Road'. Again. Take two. First time, couldn't get past page 10. This time, cracking on. It's depressing, but it's enjoyable at the same time. I've seen the movie too. Pretty powerful.

Are you reading anything beyond cereal packets at the moment? If so, do share!
