I've been reading other peoples worlds and I've come to the conclusion that we are living in the age of indulgence. In the UK people moan about such trivial things but when you think about it we are really fortunate.

Karl Marx by Francis Wheen is a book I still browse and talk about 10 years after its publication. As well as politicians I also have a fascination for artists and writers. You should see the pile of 'books to read' on my bedside table...<br /><br />Great post.<br /Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02658858373848443540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5309932466795335827.post-28129613088847307322010-03-25T05:59:37.232-07:002010-03-25T05:59:37.232-07:00I love to read, too.

I never really used to read at all, apart from just for school or uni, but after reading a few really interesting things (and yes one of them was actually a self help book!)

I know this because sadly, I keep a list. I started a tradition on Christmas Eve 08 that I'd read 80 books a year as per Stephen King's recommendation. <br /><br />Great post, Kid. I think everyone should have the time to read- it's one of the most enriching, wonderful activities we have available toMandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03317083686011835433noreply@blogger.com
