This year has been a real disappointment for me in the book department. I just went to my Goodreads account and counted 12 books this year that I have not finished or barely even got started because they have been total crap in one way or the other. Some were total trash with language and adult content, some just could not keep my attention and there are so many that I have on my "currently reading" list that I really am not reading at all. I really love to read and so I am very disgruntled that I am having such a hard time doing it. I put a freeze on my book buying binges from Barnes and Noble because I have just been disappointed too many times to spend that much money on books. I have been ordering books from the library and patiently waiting for their arrival. This is one of my many self-help steps in trying to learn patience. I really like Goodreads and seeing what my friends and family are reading plus all of the comments and recommendations are helpful but books are so subjective that what one person likes another may not. So I am in a quandary with nothing to read.
P.S. There is nothing on TV either.

Have you read "Three Cups of Tea?" Check that out, I read it this summer and really enjoyed it. Much more than I had expected.
