moonwiseWhen I was a kid, I read voraciously, and was always having one book or another taken away in class.
As I got older, I didn't read quite as much, and with the advent of the Internet, somehow the number of books I read a year fell off dramatically. It was bothersome - like I'd lost a talent.
On Friday after work, I went to Borders and picked up a copy of "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time," intending to make it last for a weekend.
It didn't last an hour and a half.
It was good to know that was still possible - to be so engrossed in a book that you can't stop reading even for dinner or a trip to the potty.
