Totally Rad. Your surfboard is bitchin! I just wanted to write those things.

Hello, Smart and Wise and Refined Readers:

I'm reading Home by Marilynne Robinson (a novel). Its an exercise in discipline.
But, I want to finish the entire book so badly. Lately, in order to read or make headway in a book, I have to make a conscious effort to finish the book.
I have to read at stoplights, while brushing my teeth, and while at 7-11 getting a drink, just to read what feels like anything at all. How did I whip through books when I was 12 or 13?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? question mark overkill. When I read a book that I like (or when I am really into a book) it feels like a special treat, like something lucky has been bestowed upon me.
"Home" is good but much like reading Little House on the Prairie.

Yours truly,
Alice
