About Me

I am no one special.  Just someone who loves to read and has since I was a small girl.

I am a wife, mother of two adult children, and a Nana to two healthy and beautiful little boys.

I am a paralegal by day and a wannabe blogger/writer at night…that’s if I am not reading.

 

I remember reading when I was a child.  I remember how much fun it was when my mom took my brothers and me to the library and we got to pick out a book or two.

I remember when I used to get the order form at school for Scholastic books and I would take it home and ask my parents if I could order some books.  Most often I would get to pick out a couple of cheap books and I would be so excited.  I would turn my slip in the next day and I could not wait until my books came.

My mom read a lot too, so I think it probably wore off on me.

 

I remember growing into a teen and spending more time in my room or outside on the deck reading than just about anything else.

I was very active and I enjoyed playing sports and riding my bike, but I did a whole lot of reading too.  I loved going to the library at school and getting books to read.

I remember my mom buying second-hand books at the library and other places. It did not bother me…a book was a book.

And at church, we had reading contests to see how many chapters of the Bible we could read.  Needless to say, I read a lot.

 

After I married and had kids, I went through a dry spell.  I was so busy and working that I did not have as much time to read. If you are a parent, you understand that more than anyone.   I still enjoyed reading when I could.

I went for several years where I did not read many books at all and I missed that activity.  I read books with my kids, but it just wasn’t the same.

I was busy with the kids, helping at the kid’s school, involved in girl scouts and boy scouts, helping with the children’s classes at church, and working a full-time job on and off as we moved to different places.

 

After my kids were grown and out of high school, my love for reading was rekindled.  I began reading all types of books, mystery novels, romance novels, Christian romance, spiritual books, historical fiction, and science fiction.

My favorite genre became clear to me after a few years.  I started preferring historical fiction over everything else.  Because I wanted to be a better person and learn more, I forced myself to read other types of books like self-help and motivational books.  I am glad I did.  It has made me a more well-rounded person.

 

So, because I love to read so much and because I wanted to start blogging, it was only too fitting that I build a book website.

 

I wanted to share my love of reading, the importance of reading, and eventually talk about the books I love to read.  This site has been a learning experience and I will share a little about that in a post I am writing.  But for now, on to the books!!

 

Happy Reading!

About Me

Hi, my name is Pamela. I love books! I have a book in my hand wherever I go, if not a paperback or hardcover book, I’ve got my Kindle, or the Kindle app on my iphone. If I’m not at work and I’m sitting still, I’m most likely reading. I want to share my love of books with you and hopefully, you will read a few of my favorites and come back to share what you thought too. Let’s get reading!!
