There has been so much going on this week and I haven’t had as much time as I’d like to read. Graduation is this week so there have been some events associated with that. My parents are in town so we’ve spent some time with them. Even though I haven’t had time to read much, I still wanted to check in with you, my lovely readers!
Back in junior high I had this thing where I would only read books with maps in the front cover. If it didn’t have a map, then it probably wasn’t good, and wasn’t worth reading. I don’t really know where that idea came from, but it probably lasted about a year. Honestly, I’m pretty glad I got over it because I like reading fantasy type books, but I also really enjoy contemporary YA and I’m glad that I let myself discover other books.
Did/Do you have any strange reading habits?
What's She Reading? 
I used to only read books that were non-fiction. I would never let myself read anything that wasn’t real; especially not with magic or anything make believe. I decided to read The Hunger Games series back in in 2012 and ever since then, I have been reading everything. It was just so weird, because for so long I refused to read anything that wasn’t non-fiction.

That’s so interesting! Did you just think a book wasn’t worth it unless it was a true story?

I’m not really sure why I only let myself read non-fiction when I think about it now. So many wasted years of not reading some amazing books! It’s kind of sad when I think about how many books I could have read back then!

That’s exactly how I feel too! I could have been reading some really great books if only I’d been willing to look beyond the maps!

I used to only read Nicholas Sparks and Jodi Picoult books because I didn’t really know any authors, until I read Hunger Games and from there I branched onto science fiction and fantasy. Are you the one graduating? Congratulations!!!!

Yeah my husband and I both graduated today! Thank you!!! It’s so interesting to see what habits other people had/have. I’m glad I’m not the only one who used to do something kind of weird!
