I get distracted otherwise, but I definitely count it as reading. I loved The Help. And I just started reading Remarkable Creatures by Tracy Chevalier and it drew me in right away. I also loved the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. I'll have to try Envy next.

For kids that hate to read, if they are introduced to books on tape (and I make my kids follow the text as well) it can turn them on to books.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17099244251375958949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4068518284057885551.post-81416989898519871762011-01-10T12:41:43.230-06:002011-01-10T12:41:43.230-06:00I like to both read and listen to books.

I listen to books when I sew or exercise .... sometimes I exercise longer because I want to find out what is going to happen. "The Help" was a book I listened to.<br />I haven't read "Envy", but I will put it on my list. <br /><br />I love to listen to Vince Flynn and David Baldacci books.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15583384373234602952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4068518284057885551.post-23666076147336125162011-01-10T10:10:11.664-06:002011-01-10T10:10:11.664-06:00I found listening-reading this last summer.

My library doesn't have a very good selection and I quickly checked out all they had to offer. I will keep the books you recommended in mind.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4068518284057885551.post-89012752451785606782011-01-10T09:49:31.821-06:002011-01-10T09:49:31.821-06:00Pam, I listen to books while I sew and thoroughly ...Pam, I listen to books while I sew and thoroughly enjoy them. And yes you are reading when you listen! I read "The Help" and thoroughly enjoyed it. Will have to look for "Envy" Another great one is "Saving Cee Cee Honeycutt" you should give it a try. <br /><br />I currently have three books going one on CD to listen to, one on my NOOK, and one on the night stand.Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16334879876822366938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4068518284057885551.post-55892952265945175662011-01-10T09:11:37.806-06:002011-01-10T09:11:37.806-06:00If you are awake while you are reading and compreh...If you are awake while you are reading and comprehending and enjoying the story...then you are reading it...<br /><br />Do they email?
