Bookworm

I can't remember exactly how many books I already have read. I started reading at a very young age. My parents encouraged me to read, read, and read. My uncles and aunties kept sending me books too.

I remember that back in grade school, I read Bobbsey Twins and one of my cousins influenced me to read Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys. I also had the chance to read Sweet Valley Twins and Sweet Valley Kids. Don't get me wrong, I have had a happy and normal childhood. I mean. I also played the usual games children play. :)

In high school, I enjoyed Sweet Valley High and Sweet Valley University (even when I was already in college). Likewise, I read Sweet Dreams just like many of my peers did.  I have read Shakespeare books; Iliad and Odyssey too. At first, because I had to. Later on, because I just wanted so.

When I was in college, I had more time to read and so I spent so much time reading paperback novels and a whole lot more of reading materials. 

Rowling, Steel, Grisham, King, Sparks, Brown, Crichton, Meyer, Tolkien, Sheldon, Covey, and many more! Chicken Soup books too!

I never stopped reading. I still read a lot now. In fact, I splurge on books! I have to be honest though... some of the books are free because they're given as gifts and some are downloaded from the internet.  Thanks to technology, I can now keep thousands of e-books in my iPad and in my Nook! These gadgets will save me a lot of bookshelf space!
