I've been tagged by Angie. I am way late, well I think I'm about the same as her. She was 9 days late and I think about 9 days also. Here it goes. There are a list of questions about reading and my answer follows each question.
1. Do you remember how you developed a love for reading? I don't really enjoy reading. I do a bit more now only because of my desire to learn to be a better wife, mom & daughter of God.
2. What are some books you read as a child? Nancy Drew & Sweet Valley High. I read Are You There God It's Me Margaret about a dozen times.
3. What is your favorite genre? Again, I really only read non-fiction as it relates to my calling as a wife, mom & daughter of the true & living God.
4. Do you have a favorite novel? I guess it would have to be Left Behind Series but I stopped reading them because I was convicted about knowing more about that novel than Revelation.
5. Where do you usually read? In bed. I get distracted anywhere else.
6. When do you usually read? Just as I'm falling asleep. I will go to sleep faster that way. So depending on how tired I am I might only get about 1/2 a paragraph in a night.
7. Do you usually have more than one book you are reading at a time? YES, but I really would like to finish one first (even though it never happens that way) otherwise I won't finish any of them.
8. Do you read nonfiction in a different way or place than you read fiction? Nope, again, sleep & distraction are issues here.
9. Do you buy most of the books you read, or borrow them, or check them out of the library? A little bit of all of them. I'm doing more junkin' so I try to find books used but if there is a book I know I need to read I will just buy it.
10. Do you keep most of the books you buy? If not, what do you do with them? Unfortunately I do keep them unless I can pass them along to someone else. But in that case I usually end up with it again. If I really like it though then I might need it as a reference later.
11. If you have children, what are some of the favorite books you have shared with them? We are going through the Little House series right now. This is really the first books that we've gone through together. I've read little toddler/preschooler books but this is a first w/ chapter books.
12. What are you reading now? A Mom After God's Own Heart by Elizabeth George, Women of The Bible by Ann Spangler & Jean Syswerda, Spell to Write & Read by Wanda Sanseri (that's more of a text book so does it count?) and I just started today Passionate Housewives Desperate for God by Jennie Chancey & Stacy McDonald. I think that's it (is that too much at once?). Oh and I'm also ready Farmer Boy by Laura Ingalls Wilder to the kids at night.
13. Do you keep a TBR (to be read) list? Not written but in my mind.
14. What’s next? A Women's Bible Study w/ my women's group and Love & Respect by Emerson Eggerichs and hopefully I won't find something before those to read first.
Now I tag John & Courtney (here's your chance to start bloggin Court). Copy and past this whole post into your own post and change the answers to fit you. Happy blogging!
