Book Frenzy

I have been in a reading craze lately. Do you ever do that? I get these times in my life when all I want to do is read, and then read, and then read some more. It comes in gushes, and when it comes, I get so many books piled up that I can't possibly hope to read them all. But hope I do, anyways. And I read like crazy. And then, it slows and I only read now and then. I think that probably I'm always in the middle of at least one book, but at times like these, I can't help but be in the middle of at least three. I get so excited about reading a book, but then also about reading another and another. I think other people go through this too, I know some people who are always going through this. I can't handle it all the time, it takes too much time and then I would never get anything done in my life.

I just finished A Separate Peace. Again. I definitely appreciated it a lot more than when I read it in tenth grade as required reading. It was beautiful writing. I love when authors put words together that shouldn't belong together but do. And some of the words he put together, well, they were so beautiful; it was poetry, in a novel. I'm glad I read it again. I just didn't really understand the point of it when I was sixteen, I didn't really get what it was about. Not really. I want to go back and reread a lot of the books I read when in high school English classes.
