What are you currently reading?

Today is my mom’s 52nd birthday!! I have to credit all of my love for reading to my mom. She refused to let me fail and refused to accept the resounding statement my kindergarten teacher made when it was time for me to leave for summer and first grade. “She will fail first grade because she can’t read.”

MMMMMM. Salty. And I was a good kid, too.

Ain’t nobody going to tell me what my fate will be but the man upstairs. I entered first grade on a third-grade reading level. HI-CHA!

I am trying as hard as I can to read my current book, Heat It Up. It is great! It is set in Finland, and the MC is staying with her grandmother, who doesn’t speak a lick of English. And she doesn’t speak a lick of Finnish, either. Enter a physics brainiac hockey player and things get interesting. Also, two Finnish grandmas trying to set up the MC.

I am literally falling asleep with my Kindle each night. I read a few pages and then pass out. It is so frustrating because I have some good reading mojo going on and I’m not having time to read! I think I need to start reading in the morning. I like to lie in bed in the morning anyway, so it might be a good way to start the day. I always feel like I’m so behind if I don’t start my day off on time, though.
