I've noticed something changing about myself recently and that is my love for reading. I have never been a big reader of books at all, in fact I could probably tell you how many books I've read in my life time. I would start one, get a few pages in and then lose all interest. I'm going to be completely honest I didn't even read my whole comparative novel for leaving cert English... oops. I've always loved reading magazines, blogs, anything online but books were just not for me.
I bought Zoe Sugg's book Girl Online months back, in December I think, but I never got around to picking it up. With loads going on in my life along with exams on top of that although I really wanted to read it I could never find the chance. Last week I was babysitting my cousins and decided that while they were in bed I would start reading it and for the next 5 days I literally couldn't put it down! I don't know if its because I'm now finished school and don't have piles and piles of books staring at me 24/7 that I have no option to look at but my view is different now. I have never in my life read a book as fast as I read Girl Online. I got completely hooked with the story and grew attachments to the characters. For one of the first times in my life I can honestly say I thoroughly enjoyed picking up a book and reading it. It may be a phase or a new view on things I don't know but I'm loving it. I even spent some of tonight searching my house for a particular book that I bought a couple of years ago and never got around to finishing (no surprise there). The search was unsuccessful but I'll try again tomorrow.
Does anyone have any recommendations of books you have been loving? Leave them in the comments below or tweet me!
