How I Read

I am not one to read one book at a time. Unless I'm on holidays. Normally I'll have two or three books on the go at any one time. At the moment I have 'The Garden Book' by Brian Castro' in my work bag - I chose this book because I've decided to read all the books nominated for the Booker Prize this year. On my big lounge chair in my office at work I have 'The Historian' by Elizabeth Kostova, which I half read last year and haven't got back to. I am about to start 'Memoirs of a Geisha' by Arthur Golden as it is one chosen by the BRA Club (the reading group that I belong to). I have yet to see the film as I don't want to spoil the book. I'm going away this weekend, so intend to pick up something at Dymocks this afternoon to read in the car. I am also surrounded by books all day, being a Teacher Librarian, but I rarely read books from the library. I will more often buy a book for the library that I bought for myself, enjoyed and thought that some of my users would like.
