Books, Books, Books!!

So, I have to say that growing up reading was not my favorite thing to do.  I would read for school or at least try to read for school but I found it sooooo boring!  When I got to college I started reading the Harry Potter books and really enjoyed them.  However, it wasn't until the Twilight books (I read all four books in 4 1/2 days, crazy I know!) that I started reading, reading, reading. Since, the Twilight series I have read I don't know how many books!!  Don't laugh but most of the are paranormal love stories! Being a wife, a mother, and a teacher my life can get very stressful.  So even though these books are meant for teens, I find them to be a great escape from my reality and they are easy reads!! 
 I was buying a new book the other day and thought to myself "Growing up you would never be in the book isle, now look at you have become book crazy!"  I have a book shelf for books that haven't been read yet and a shelf for books that I finished.  I guess I could sell my books after I read them but they are my trophies!  I absolutely love when I get to add a book to my bookshelf of finished books!  Over the Christmas break I finished two books (over 300 pages or more) and I just started another one today!  Who knows I may able to finish this book and start a new one before we go back to school on Monday. 

Do any other moms out there find that reading is an escape for them?  If you do, let me know what books you have really enjoyed by sending me a comment!
