The book fair started it! With one of the books from Heroes of Olympus series. My eldest kid had an aversion to novels... Basically books without pictures, because, she found it boring.

I got a free book as part of a promotion. The title was The Blood of Olympus by Rick Riordan. Even if the price points at the book fair were … [Read more...]

Goal: To Read More Books, Cymplified!
Recreational reading was one of my hobbies. I used to read Sweet Valley Twins, Sweet Valley High, my aunt's romance books, and Archie comics. I still have the Sweet Valley Twins, which I painted.

Each morning my weight resets. Now that I am in my mid 30's, the lbs. are taking up permanent residency and are difficult to evict. My … [Read more...]
