The past several weeks I have been reading a series of books that my friend lent me.
She told me it was vampires and werewolves and such.
I rolled my eyes.
Not my cup of tea.
I rolled my eyes and read them anyway.
And with each passing page, and chapter, oh, and 5 books later,
I kept rolling my eyes.
And turning the page.
And last night at dinner, I found myself wanting to tell Nate something about how vampires are.
And a little about warlocks.
It was a sad moment.
We laughed.
But this world is what I was escaping into each day.
At nap time,
or whenever time.
I have been staying up late.
Wanting to know how friends were faring.
And last night I turned my last page.
I was not left satisfied.
And I find myself a bit frightened that I will have to live in the real world,
all. day. long.
It's not a bad world.
But it doesn't have vampires and werewolves and inter-species love stories.
And I'm thinking my next read should be humans only.
Just so the re-entry to reality isn't as traumatic.

OK, I'm biting... what series is it that you got hooked on?
As for getting back into the real world try out 'Water for Elephants.' It would be a good one if you haven't already read it. Or I really liked 'The Help' too.
Dannika, Hey. It is the mortal instruments series. Yes, it hooked me. I didn't love it, but i was entertained.
I read water for elephants and the help. Great books.
I need to get to the library this week and pick up something on the "what's new" shelf. Something non fantasy.
Or, I need to be productive for a few days before I get into another book.
