HOWEVER.... what saved me was a website called &quot;Goodreads&quot;... you must look it up! You enter in all the books you have read, and you rate them, and this website (which has an ENORMOUS database of books) will suggest books that you might like, based on the ones you&#39;ve already said you liked. And you know what? IT WORKS! I have read scads of books that I&#39;ve really enjoyed since using that site. If you have friends (or boyfriends) who also read, you can list them as friends on the site and see what they&#39;re reading and what they thought of the books they read. It&#39;s really wonderful! www.goodreads.comMarchelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07697295230446820295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8371572.post-84281720818788147632016-01-27T09:31:10.225-08:002016-01-27T09:31:10.225-08:00I feel your pain.

Reading fiction made me who I am, whatever that means. One thing that has helped me somewhat. I&#39;ve become FAR more selective. I don&#39;t have the room for taking many chances -- which is tragic. But Marilynne Robinson, yes. Jenny Offill, yes. Saunders, yes.

Me...I go through phases of finding it hard to read. Mercifully it is usually just a phase.<br />I walk with my girls in empty woods on the west coast of Ireland, but having lived in London for so many years, I still find myself wondering what they would do if someone unsavoury appeared! I hope I don&#39;t have to find out. And your missing spoon made me smile, as, although I don&#39;t count mine back into the drawer, I had a similar experience only recently.<br />http://lorely-writingfromtheedge.blogspot.ie/2016/01/christmas-and-mystery-of-missing-spoons.html<br />I hope your love returns soon.<br />I enjoy reading your blog.Lorely Forresterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01055051415631750885noreply@blogger.com
