Well I've worked out that you average about 6 books a week so you will probably be done by the end of August, although there are probably other books you'll be reading as well!! I can't keep up.

Elaine | 2001 comments But that's just it Brenda you don't rush you just read amazingly fast. I think it's just how you read. Do you normally have more than one book going? Can't remember if I've asked you this before.

Not usually Elaine, but I have my graphic novel for the Winter challenge plus a normal read at the moment:)

It's funny, but to me it doesn't feel like I read fast, (I know I do) it just seems "normal"...lol

Elaine | 2001 comments Well to you it probably is normal to the rest of us it's freakish how fast you read!! I can honestly say that I do not know anyone else who reads as quickly as you do and can still remember story lines and characters and not mix it all up. it truly is a gift, I think.
