Following along with Boof’s 40 Day Challenge leading up to her 40th birthday, day 15! Her topic for today is:
15) A book that I have read the most number of times
Well, I don’t tend to re-read books too much (save the kiddo books I read when smaller), so the books I’ve read twice include: the Harry Potter series, Pride & Prejudice, and Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close. That’s all I can remember. I sort of have a “keep moving forward” philosophy and so use my limited time to try new books. I had some poetry books when I was younger (“Now We Are Six” and “Reflections on a Gift of Watermelon Pickle”) that I read over and over again because they were so clever and fun.
#15 on my list of 40 things was to WRITE. Blog, journal, stories, poetry, letters and postcards. Again, not measurable but it has made me more purposeful and intentional and to put stamps on things and to keep a book for haikus. Good stuff.
Off to read!
