I love to read - I always have. I inherited the love of reading from my Dad. As a kid in elementary school, I lived for the Weekly Reader. Once a month, they would have a special insert in the Weekly Reader where you could buy books. That's where I found out about the awesome Dynamite magazine, of which I was a proud subscriber. I would read anything I could get my hands on. I even remember reading "Gone With The Wind" when I was 12 years old - long before I saw the movie for the first time. I remember reading and reading and reading, and thinking I was never going to finish the book because it was so long.
I still like to read today, but I don't have much time for it. I decided a couple of weeks ago that I was going to make time to read more, even if it means spending less time on the internet. In fact, I just started reading "Emma" by Jane Austen. But thanks to the internet, I found a very cool website that will help me read more. Go to http://www.arcamax.com/cgi-bin/news/channel/1049 like I did and start reading. Just pick out the book you want to read, just like at the library, and then start reading. You can read online, or if you want, you can subscribe for free and join their book club, where they'll email you one chapter a day.
If anyone of you, my faithful readers, join this book club and read some of the books, please email me or leave a comment in TWIT about it. You can even do a book report on your book if you want.
