Reading in 2012

This wasn't the best year for me and books.. I read plenty but not many blew my mind.. I used to have this thing about never leaving a book unfinished. I thought it rude to the author to not finish. There was always a slight chance that things would turn around and with a little clever twist I would end up liking it rather than not. I can no longer afford to do that. I am mom to a toddler, I am exhausted, I barely get the time to read. I make the time because I love to read. If in the first few chapters I am not even mildly engaged then I just stop reading and move on. I also joined Good Reads this year and love it, I entered a few of the giveaways and one a few books :) Which in turn exposed me to a few writers I hadn't known.. Virgin of Small Plains - Nancy Pickard - Started strong but ended predictably The World According to Garp - John Irving - Loved this one. It made me laugh and cry. It stayed with me long after I finished reading it. The Girl Who Kicked The Hornets
