Where Did January Go?

It seems incredible to me that January is gone already.  The days here in Florida are getting warmer (way too soon), it won’t be long and I won’t be able to walk anymore.. I can’t take the humidity, so the “cool” weather is such a wonderful break.. ah well..

January started off good with my reading and then I began to crochet and the reading is much slower now.. *sigh* I need to get audio books so I can listen and crochet at the same time!

So… what I did manage to read :

1. The Forgotten Beasts of Eld...Patricia A McKillip……343 pgs (Christmas gift from Debi!)

 

2. The Rose Garden.............…..Susanna Kearsley…….448 pgs

 

3. Furry Logic.................……….Jane Seabrook………….80 pgs

 

4. Instruments of Darkness.......Imogene Robertson….373 pgs

 

5. I Am Half Sick of Shadows.....Alan Bradley……………….297 pgs

…and I am half way thru Great Expectations by Charles Dickens…

So that’s where my reading stands so far this year.

I have come to enjoy Flavia (Alan Bradley) but now it looks as if a year must go by before another of those comes out.  That’s not a good thing as I have found lately that waiting a year for each installment of all the series I”ve been reading has suddenly gone de-funk and now I am not picking up many of the old series. 

Some I still do (like Michael Scotts Nicholas Flamel series), but many I have dropped.  I seem to loose interest because I have so many books sitting here waiting to be read. My reading will pick up the minute I stop crocheting and that will cease as soon as any sign of “coolish” weather is gone.  Unlike others winters that could be tomorrow, but I hope not!

So how was your first month of 2012 where it pertains to reading?  The count is not important to me anymore so much as how much I enjoy what I am reading, no matter how long it takes me to read it.  I hope you are enjoying your “new reading year!”
