Reading is Fun!

I am horribly disappointed with myself and my current reading status. I have had heaps of papers to write (if you hadn't picked up on that from my constant griping) and naturally, before you write tremendous amounts, you need to read tremendous amounts. Now, I like to recreationally read, but man, you get sick of it. As I was once tearing through a book a week, I have now been reading one novel long enough that I had to get it renewed from the library. Shock of shocks. I don't remember the last time I didn't make a library deadline. Not only that, I still have a book obsession.

I went in just to renew that and a research book, but I came out with three more books. Shoot. They just jumped into my arms and I couldn't stop it. One other book I wanted to get was The Life of Pi, but it always gets checked out right away. I just wanted to know when it was going to be back in. I knew there was a way to check it online, but couldn't remember. I asked at the desk and the guy told me I could put a recall on the book, which I think is really rude. I mean, I can't even get through my first novel, let alone the next three I just picked up. The guy basically yelled at me for not asking for it back on a recall. Jerks, emphasizing my newfound inability to read quickly. Any true novel enthusiast would understand why recalling any book for any purpose other than a book needed for research or an assignment is entirely uncalled for and rude.

Novel enthusiasts unite!
