I love books. I can spend hours in a bookshop or library. I used to read a lot but last few years it’s dropped off - I’ll start a book and don’t finish it. At least not straight away. I have half and partial reads going on at the moment. Last complete reads were The Dry, The Midnight Library and How To Stop Time.
When I turned 40 things started to change for me and little things like what book to read becomes like a huge commitment. It’s strange for me but I think it’s simply that I have more everyday things to do now that take up my time so whatever spare time I do have I like to make sure it’s utilised properly.
That said I keep acquiring books whether digital or hard copy. Some audiobooks by Alexander McCall Smith. Such fun and entertaining stories. My fav author is Stephen King and will always get the first release if I can - never a digital copy as I collect his books. But moved onto Wilbur Smith and love how he used to write. Then I just started to read all sorts of stuff. I love books about time travel. I like history, archeological stuff etc. My latest partial reads are Before The Coffee Gets Cold and Into The Deep. I will finish them at some point.
Anyone want to share or recommend a good book (that I can partially or half) read?
