Feeling Guilty

I'm feeling guilty because I haven't posted in such a long time. I have a good excuse -- working 50+ hours. But that doesn't make me feel any better.

I have managed to squeeze in some non-work-related reading, though, in the brief spaces of time when I'm grabbing a bite to eat or just before I doze off at night. In fact, as often happens in life, now that I have so much work, I also have several good books to read. The last time I went to the library, I learned that I could get library books for my Kindle. So I went a little crazy and requested more than I could read. Just as with regular library books, you get three weeks to read the Kindle version, and then it disappears from your e-reader. Several of the books I requested were on a waiting list, so I thought I'd be safe. But then they all started coming in just days apart. Once they're on your shelf, you have three days to download them or they go back to the "stacks." So now, in addition to my book club read "House Rules" by Jodi Picoult, I also have downloaded "The Knife of Never Letting Go" by Patrick Ness.

Because I was working such long hours, I had to let another digital title go back -  as well as a hardcover book I had ordered. I really want to read both of these books, but I guess it won't happen just now.
