I have a confession to read. There’s a tiny hoarder in me… that hoards books.
Maybe you’re like me and have stacks of books in your house yet to read. Or maybe you haven’t read anything since the last time you were assigned a book in class.
Either way, these are some of recent health, wellness, and lifestyle books that I’ve picked up… and have yet to read.
Read MoreA couple years ago I found myself mid-December not having read a single book that wasn’t somehow related to the health and wellness industry. Don’t get me wrong, I love to read, and I have a HUGE list of non-fiction books that I can’t wait to read, but I also love fiction. I love intriguing stories, and fluff, and Harry Potter.
So I joined a book club. I spent the year reading book club picks and re-reading all the chronological Valdemar series books by Mercedes Lackey and letting the health and wellness books I wanted to read pile up. And pile they did.
Ugh! So many books, so little time!
Read MoreIt seems inevitable that this was going to happen. After all, I’ve written not one, but two blogs about books and reading recently (you can read them here and here). Actually, if you count the blog I wrote about cookbooks that would be three.
I guess you could say that I have thing for books.
And I guess you could also say that it’s a rediscovered passion. While I spent my childhood devouring every book that was put in front of me, up until last year the last several years the only time I read anything that was not directly “career related” was over my Christmas vacation. Not good.
Then last year, I started reading again. I went back and started reading the entire Valdemar series by Mercedes Lackey in timeline order. And I rediscovered how the fanciful characters and stories could take me away and help me relax. I was hooked.
