    The other day i read, " A Modest Proposal" It was a very quick read. For Christmas i recieved "oliver twist", "The metamorphosis" and "animal Farm"
    Ive kind of been on a break from reading...or Ive been too busy should i say.
    There is a website that i like to go to. It's www.literature.org there are a lot of great classics there. I think my main problem is there are so many books i want to read and i get overwhelmed.

    I haven't read them in YEARS, and I do find that returning to some of that fantasy that I once loved has been a disappointment.

    In fact, I read very little fantasy anymore. There were a lot of books from that genre that I didn't even list here b/c I found I didn't care about them enough to go through the process.

    Isn't it funny how our tastes change? I guess they're supposed to.
