BBAW: Reading meme
I don’t even write in textbooks – I had an English prof who insisted you couldn’t engage with the text unless you wrote on it. I improvised and read with a notebook alongside me. =)
I get the idea you love your Kindle! I wish my books were organized!
I do love my Kindle.
Ooh, your reading snack sounds good. I’m a Diet Coke and something salty lover myself.
My friends joke and me if I’d like some popcorn with my salt.
It’s always nice to find another kindred spirit who uses booksmarks, no writing in book and arranges them by height!
I’m still catching up with all the BBAW posts as you can see.
I enjoyed reading your responses. Let me know what you think of Bending Toward the Sun!
