One Reader's Ramblings

Wow!   So last post I mentioned vampires would be my next book and, ironically, that’s what I read.   Why do I say ironically?   Because I already had the book on my Kindle, but I hadn’t paid any attention to what kind of book it was until I opened it and really didn’t realize it was about vampires until I was pretty well into it.   Even more ironic, when I went back to look at the book description (checking to see if it was a subconscious thing) from it I would have guessed werewolves but not vampires… turns out it’s both. 

Recently, while on vacation, I ventured away from YA Paranormal and back to an older genre: Mystery.   The main reason for the change is that I was going to be without wi-fi and therefore had to get as many books as possible on my Kindle before we left.   This led me to search out the public library’s e-book lending system.   I’m sure there are YA paranormal to be lent… but I couldn’t find them.   So mystery it was.

For someone who reads paranormal non-stop, you’d think nothing would faze me when it comes to the stories in books… NOT SO.   What honestly never ceases to amaze me is how many times I have this exact same internal dialog while reading a new book—it goes like this:   “Wow, this is the weirdest thing I’ve ever read!   Wait.   I always think that when reading a new book.   Yea, but this one really is weird.” (I obviously have short-term memory loss as well, right?)
