For many years, I was so busy with my littles and working from home that I rarely made time to read. Then, I got a Kindle and picked up where I had left off many years before, reading 2-3 books a week. There are still times when I have to read less to make time for family events or work projects, but reading is my #1 choice for relaxing & learning, and I make time for it as much as I can!

My favorite source for reading material is Amazon’s free Kindle books. I’ve gotten more than 600 books over the last two years, and I’ve discovered more than a few authors and series that I love. Although I prefer to read on my iPad — at least while I anxiously await the delivery of my Kindle Fire next Wednesday — Amazon offers free Kindle apps for your PC, Mac, iPhone, BlackBerry, Android or Windows 7 phone as well!

When I do buy a book, I like to use gift cards I’ve earned through Swagbucks — guilt-free shopping at its finest!

Okay, confession time…I had great aspirations for my reading list in July, but I started out the month reading straight through the Eden Thrillers series that I mentioned last month and then read a few other books more casually, but I never did start in on my wishlist. That didn’t stop me from adding a [...]

I’m a voracious reader, regularly reading 2-3 books per week, but I’m not a picky reader. I love fiction — historical fiction, faith-based fiction, thrillers, medical drama, etc. — and I usually read whichever one stands out to me when I turn on my iPad. I am a little pickier when it comes to nonfiction, [...]
