Yes, I'm Crazy!

I'm fairly new to the blogosphere - been blogging a couple years. My posts at Cheyenne Chronicles are mainly about me and my kids and geared toward keeping family and friends updated on our activities. Now that I've had some experience blogging, I realized that really good blogs have very focused topics that the bloggers care about. I have a wide variety of interests so it's hard sometimes to write about them on my main blog because the posts end up being random. The one thing that I do every single day is read. I read everything: newspapers, magazines, the mail, and BOOKS. Ahhh! I LOVE books! That's an understatement.

I'm so excited to start this new blog because I'm excited about reading and about books in general. Did I mention I love to read? I cannot remember ever not liking to read. I remember as a little girl my mom would take me and my sisters to the library. I was in elementary school and during summer breaks we didn't do much. We were poor but we had access to the local public library, which fortunately was only a few blocks away. I'd check out a stack of books - literally about a dozen. I'd read all of them before returning them to the library two or three weeks later. Then, I'd check out another stack. Books were my salvation during those long summer breaks. They kept me from being bored to death.

So, this blog is dedicated to books. I will be talking about books I've read, books I'm currently reading, and books I want to read. Maybe even books I don't think I want to read and why. Happy reading!
