Some books from the Sweet Valley High series – teenage romance
Do you avoid certain genres when you are looking for a good read? I do.
I am generally a wide, across-all-genre reader and in fact that is one of the things I have loved about being in a book club: reading books I would never consider picking up, and then thoroughly enjoying them. The one that sticks in my mind most is Joan Richmond: The Remarkable, Previously Untold Story from Melbourne to Monte Carlo and Beyond.
I know we are meant to be embracing this wonderful new technology, but I am struggling.
A friend has lent me her ereader so I can read the next book on the list for our book club and she thinks it would be good for me to give a try with the idea that I may get one as well. I’m the last one in my book club to move onto the new technology and I am at least ten years younger than the rest. In fact, I am meant to the age that is embracing new technology. As it turns out, the half generation above me is.
I am surprised how difficult I am finding it and I don’t know if it is just because I spend most of my working/studying time staring at a screen.
